These modules are often “boxes” arranged around a <a href="/Component" title="Component">component</a> on a typical page. A well-known example is the login module. Modules are assigned per menu item, so you can decide to show or hide (for example) the login module depending on which page (menu item) the user is currently on. Some modules are linked to components: the “latest news” module, for example, links to the content component (com_content) and displays links to the newest content items. However, modules do not need to be linked to components; they don't even need to be linked to anything and can be just static HTML or text. </p><p>Modules are managed in the Joomla! Administrator view by the Module Manager. More information about module management can be found on the appropriate version help screens. </p> <ul><li><a href="/Special:MyLanguage/Help39:Extensions_Module_Manager" title="Special:MyLanguage/Help39:Extensions Module Manager">J3.10 Module Manager Help Screen</a></li></ul> <p><b>See also</b>: <a href="/Component" title="Component">Component</a>, <a href="/Plugin" title="Plugin">Plugin</a>, <a href="/Template" title="Template">Template</a> </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Learning_More">Learning More</span></h2> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Module_Positions">Module Positions</span></h3> <p>A module position is a placeholder in a <a href="/Template" title="Template">template</a>. Placeholders identify one or several positions within the template and tell the Joomla! application where to place output from modules assigned to a particular position. The template designer has complete control over module positions, creating variations between templates and the respective Joomla! default positions assigned to modules in the installation sample data. </p><p>For example, the module position <b>Left</b> could be defined to be on the left side of the template to display a site navigation menu. So if a module is assigned the <b>Left</b> position, it will be displayed wherever the designer puts that <b>Left</b> module position - not necessarily the left side of the page. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Recommended_Reading">Recommended Reading</span></h2> <p>Modules are one of the simplest parts of Joomla and a great entry point for people learning to use the system (the equivalent of widgets in WordPress).
