<jdoc:include type="modules"/>
This element renders a single module given by the name and title attributes: name should match module type while title should be the module name of the desired module. The module in question must be published and accessible by the current user in order to become visible. Additional attributes can be provided to control the layout and appearance of the module, if supported.
