problem organizing blocks (left , center, right)

I'm trying to organize the blocks this way: (these are the block centers)


Cjay block - Custom HTML
------ new links --------


But no matter what I do I only can Get:

-------- new links --------
cjay block - custom html


I cant put the "new links" block under those two others!!

I've tried just about everything.
change blocks positions
enable / disable

Basically I've found impossible to display Two center blocks as the first ones on the site.

Its only possible to first display a center-center block, and below it two centers blocks

is this a bug?

I don't fully understand what you're trying to do.

The weight controls the order of the blocks.

If that doesn't give you enough control, you'll need to edit themes/*/theme.html.

Hello Dave_L

Let me try to clarify:

Im want to place 3 blocks:

at the top both the center_left and center_right

below them, the center_center

so the results would be this:

Center_left | Center_right
Center_Center


But I found that its impossible to do this.

When you have center_Center blocks they will be at the top, no matter what u do.

I may be wrong, but I tried just about everything (at the admin panel)

Should be easy: just need to set up the weight

but it does not work

Take a look here: http://www.xoops.net.br/

There are center_center blocks on top
and below the center_left and center_right ones

What I want is to put the ones below to the top of it

You would need to edit themes/*/theme.html to change that behavior. If you look at that file, you'll see the comments:

<!-- Start left blocks loop -->
<!-- Start center-center blocks loop -->
<!-- Start center-left blocks loop -->
<!-- Start center-right blocks loop -->
<!-- Start right blocks loop -->

Those sections of code would have to be rearranged, if you want the center-center blocks to be below the center-left and center-right blocks.

Thanks!! I see now.


I dont know codes and such, but I think that if the blocks are treated as "one thing" (for all the positions), would be possible to make it from the admin pannel.
