I'm having trouble with my modules.

I want to add another image, but when I assign Module 1 to the Menu1 module position and set the image module to the Menu1 position, instead of showing up underneath Other News like I've set it, it makes a third column on the far left and shoves everything over, squeezing the text zones into a tiny middle column.

In your demo video you show a Youtube video module that fit in properly next to the other zones without destroying anything below and next to it.  What's up?

I also tried adding a 2-column wide image to the top and it pulls the first column all the way over to the edge of the page so you entirely lose the second column.  (You can just make out hte edge of text that is the second column.)

Hi Velexia,
I found that by restricting the size of cells in the layout tables that it keeps things nice & neat & prevents any "Spillage" - just open up your layout page, then right-click on one of the table cells, choose "Cell" >>"Table Cell Properties" & in the width section put 50% (if you have a 2 column table layout) - do the same for the column next to it & you should find they keep in place better (I find this also makes modules load faster too, believe it or not.... as they no longer have to re-adjust their sizes when loading, & it actually speeds things up just a little.).

I've also done a tutorial for inserting dynamic rotating images into NewsPortal pages which I will list in the "Tips & Tricks" section, if anyone wants to read it.
Regards,
Karen
