RicheyWeb Offers Free Guide for Joomla Article Index in Module Position

Web development service RicheyWeb has published a free guide and YouTube tutorial detailing how to place a Joomla article index into a website's module position. The method allows for enhanced content navigation and discoverability.

The process involves using RicheyWeb's free HeadTag plugin or manually inserting code into the website's template. Users are instructed to create a custom module, assign it to their desired position, and configure it to prepare content and utilize HTML5 styling. The core of the solution is a JavaScript snippet that moves the article index element into the designated module.

Michael Richey, the company's founder, stated the intention behind releasing the guide was to share a straightforward technique without charge. He indicated that the ease of implementation made charging for it feel unnecessary.

The original guide was created for Joomla 3 users, with a note indicating RicheyWeb is considering a version for Joomla 4 and 5. An update in 2018 replaced jQuery code with pure JavaScript for improved efficiency.
