[SOLVED] Menus not displaying

[SOLVED] Menus not displaying was created by mev55
When using Coolness on a new Joomla! 1.6 installation NONE of my menus are being displayed (they work fine with the other default templates). I am a newbie, so I'm sure I am missing something. I tried following the documentation, even though it was for 1.5, to no avail :(

You need to put your menu modules in a position that the template understands.

On Joomla 1.6 most modules are position in position-7.

Try using position 'left' or position 'menu' (for top horizontal menu) on coolness.

It's now so obvious, thanks for the tip. I was able to get all of the menus working now.
The only item I cannot get to display is the Search module in the "inset" section of the template.

Can you confirm you published module to "On all pages"?

Ref link would help as well.

If I reduce the Search textbox size to 10 (rather than the default 20) I get the search box with the search image a little goofy.
