Adding a Joomla position in Nicepage appears to put the cart before the horse. Position names now have "Active Position Names" when adding a position and do not create the positions when uploaded as it used to albeit confined to within the side bar built into blogs or articles. Aside from using the 'Modules Anywhere' third party module in lieu of Joomla's own module package
I created 4 positions on the Home page, but the positions that appear to be created in conjunction with the template bear no resemblance to the names of the positions I had input. My 4 defined positions were NewsUpperLeft starting at the upper left position in a 2x2 grid and the last position is NewsLowerRight with the other two names following the same naming convention for their positions.
Instead of creating 4 positions with that name, it appears to have created 3 positions named 'PostUpperRight, PostLowerLeft, PostLowerRight' with a sidebar object also shown as a named position choice. None of the HTML text I put in each module displayed in the front page positions after editing the Theme/Template online. Note: The project has a single page called Home assigned to the "hmenu" position and no other page exists.
Now we are in the 3.x version is it not time to address the lack of support for the built in Joomla position engine and add it? Nicepage keeps adding features to Wordpress while Joomla appears to be treated like a second class citizen.
