Note that this example includes class additions because the examples are taken using mod_mainmenu. The suffix "_menu" to the div class and the "menu" class on the ul tag are not present with other modules.

Note that the Module chrome doesn't necessarily change the appearance all that much - this depends on the CSS used in the template. For example, the 'none' and 'horz' chromes look very similar, although the underlying HTML code is very different.

Other notes: The horz is just the table layout, wrapped in a table, tr, and td.

Until Joomla! 3: The software controlling these is in the file /templates/system/html/modules.php.

Changes since Joomla! 4

  • The standard chromes horz, rounded and xhtml have been removed from core.
  • The core module chromes are controlled by JLayout files in directory /layouts/chromes/.
