Modules are typically displayed on the left and right sides of the page. It's not uncommon to also find modules on the top or bottom of a page. The display location for a module is controlled by the site administrator through the Joomla administrator panel. The module management screen provides several options as possible locations for a published module. But Joomla does not provide an easy way if you want to display these modules in the main content area of the site.
Fortunately Joomla provides a way to get around this limitation through the use of a built-in plugin. The plugin allows authors to insert the "load module" command at any point in their content. The author simply has to include the text
{ mosloadposition user9 }
in their content at the location where they want the modules to appear. Including this text will instruct Joomla to load all of the modules designated as belonging to position "user9" into the content. Of course any position identifier can be used here.
This handy trick allows the insertion of author profiles, related articles, or any other interesting information into the main body of any article.
