[solved] How to transplant modules into theme where they are not accepted

[spring00]

Hi I've purchased a theme from template monster which doesnt have a menu bar across the top. I thought I could simply transplant a module into the header but it wont accept it. It says it cannot be done. I tried to transplant into the top of the page and it says its done it but I can't see it. I've analysed the coding with firebug and there is no mention of the menu bar. So my question is - how easy is it to edit the theme layout to accept modules like this? I've often wondered how certain sections of a theme will accept modules and others will not. I also wanted to transplant the home text editor onto the front page but once again it won't acccept it. If anyone can explain to me how to do this I'd be grateful. Or should I just pay an experienced coder to do it for me?

put somewhere in your template:

{$HOOK_TOP}

 

 

and there you will see the modules attached to this hook

Thank you In case this helps anyone else, I also had to make sure the relevant modules were installed, enabled and reset.
