Assuming that you've got the admin messages block in the center block postion then add the tag into the HTML where you want this block position to appear.

where did you put
I'm playing with the master.htm, but can't seem to get it to show up - i placed the command above leftblocks and rightblocks.

place it above in master.htm
Here is where I modified it.
If you only want it to show up on the home page then create a new module template cut and paste the master HTML into a new module template and then create a new wrapper for *home and point it to that page. Then it will only show up on the homepage.

Thanks very much - xanthia is new to me, and I've had problems with other themes playing around to learn it.

Can you give more explanation about :
thedc
If you only want it to show up on the home page then create a new module template cut and paste the master HTML into a new module template and then create a new wrapper for *home and point it to that page. Then it will only show up on the homepage.
Learning themes modifications is quite difficult...for a newbie.
The reason why (and I know there's a lot to do):
Code
Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "blocks/ccblock.htm" in d:\***\includes\classes\Smarty\Smarty.class.php on line 1088 -

My problem is solved !
The 'Smarty.class.php' cannot read 'ccblock.htm' in .\themes\Gemini\templates\blocks ? Sure, there's no such file !
So, why not giving him a new HTM file called 'ccblock.htm' and copy the code lines of the 'block.htm' in the same folder... ?
It looks great now...My admin messages are displayed. -

(Is this related to the topic above ? )
You think that your admin messages aren't justified ?
Try this:
- edit the [color-theme].css
- enter
Code
.justify {
text-align: justify;
}
- edit your admin message
- type your message between
Code
<div class="justify"> ...message contents...</div>
NOTE : for the AddStory MODULE, you'd better choose this code
Code
<div style="text-align:justify"> ...news contents...
<br /><br /></div>
The twin
avoid the 'News text' contents to stick to the bottom line.
- save the modifications.
It may work! -

The admin message stays still no matter what you choose in the Main Menu or click on news topic...
'News-article.htm', 'News-index.htm' & 'News-article_with_gravatar.htm' code lines :
Code
<a href="<!--[$links.fullarticle]-->" rel="bookmark"><!--[$info.title]--></a>
What am I supposed to change to get a new Blank Page with the news on the top of it ? The same question is worth for the hypertext links in the Main Menu...
Any idea ? Thanks. :) -

You need to learn a little about how xanthia works. Take a look at how other themes define a specific page template for the homepage. Once you have a page template specific to the homepage you can include centre blocks here but exclude them from the master page template.

Thanks for the advise but since my study on PostNukeBlue, I still don't get it...I know that a new template for 'home page' shoud be defined...But the way PN knows how page to display...I'm a bit confused..
The hunt is still opened. -

Xanthia gives me headache.
I discover the worth of 'Blocks Control' after editing the Gemini theme.
The Admin_Messages disappear now whatever link in the main menu I can click except :
- the My_Account MODULE ? (Is this a bug because I proceed the same way???)
- the News MODULE ... with the DaMnEd Admin_messages.
The fact is that my Settings MODULE don't allow me to load the Admin_Messages as my home page... Is there a link with the need to change the 'displayed' name of the Admin_Messages MODULE to 'Messages_Admin (see more threads about that) ?
I cannot say at the same time :
- load the homepage with the NEWS ... with the Admin_Messages
- & when I click on the 'Read More' or News name, I want the Admin_Messages to go...
I tried to create a new theme template (=News without Admin_Messages as homepage) and a Theme Zone as well to activate this 'homepage' but it failed...
Any help, any thread on this (don't see any), any tutorial ? ...<think that="that" i="i" cannot="cannot" hold="hold" my="my" date="date" of="of" release="release" src="http://community.zikula.org/modules/bbsmile/pnimages/smilies_auto/cry.gif" alt="cry"></think> > -

This thread http://forums.postnu…le+template+xanthia was unfortunately not the answer I asked for.
