Hi

Thanks for reading.

I'm was trying to modify my template so it would display the left column position module. So I was to create a div container to do so on the /mytemplate/html/com_hikashop/product/show.php, but neither

<?php echo   JHTML::_('content.prepare', '{loadposition left}');  ?>

{loadposition left}

Hi,

{loadposition xyz} is meant for displaying modules in content such as articles, but it doesn't work in PHP, not HikaShop PHP or any other.

To keep it simple, try NoNumber's "Modules Anywhere" . It works, is simple and easy, and... free!
