Works on mine except for the Custom Columns.


What's your template code? Maybe it's not right? I had to tinker with mine a little.

This is it:

Hi Kerry-Anne,

I just helped a user of one of my Plug-Ins who was also using your Plug-In and they had a problem :(

I was able to trace the problem to your "USC Alignment Fix" (or my "Sorky03 - SubForum List Control - parse_templates" parse_template hook). I changed the execution order of yours from 5 to 6 and they both play together nicely ;)

Similarly, I may be able to change the execution order of mine and they may also play together nicely, but as I noticed that you have two (2) parse_template hooks, I thought it worth getting your thoughts on how we can make sure this is not a recurring issue

My parse_templates code line of interest...
$vbulletin->templatecache['header'] .= $Sorky03_headerExtras;
.
Your parse_template code line of interest...
$vbulletin->templatecache['header'] = $vbulletin->templatecache['header'] . '";$spacer_open="';
.
Have you got any idea why either would affect the other?

PS: My Plug-In is here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=203353)

Thank you for a great mod, have had it running on site for quite a while now and love it.

We do have 2 issues though that I'm hoping can be sorted out please -

[list]*how do we remove the border showing around the pics
&
*is it possible to add padding to the left side of the column like the left one has

Have attached a pic to explain better and site is here (http://pakula.com/marlin/) for better view if interested.

Thank you..:)

ok, so i've seen this question asked several times in this thread but i don't see any responses. So i'll give it yet another shot.

I would like to add UserCP, Calendar, Recent Posts, Avatar etc., to the side column. Where do i find the codes to ad these?

Even a point in the right direction would be a big help as i can't find anything

Even a point in the right direction would be a big help as i can't find anything Those (UserCP, Calendar, Recent Posts, etc.) are in the navbar template.

I'm not sure what you mean by avatar - The member's avatar?

Do you want to move them or duplicate them?

Vivarant01
04-16-2009, 03:53 PM
thanks smitty. The avatar yes i meant members avatar. i'd like to duplicate them to the side panel, not just the links but the actual applications

Smitty
04-16-2009, 04:21 PM
I can't help you with the avatar - Sounds like a CMS front page type of thing and I don't use one, but the others from the navbar you can just copy out and do a table (so they're stacked) to drop in your sidebar.

This *assumes* you're familiar with the navbar template and how the conditionals are set up and such so you can divide the components you want and the associated conditionals correctly.

Hello,
Now I have a new problem, I hope can help me.

I put two FLASH but the bar of the Title (anuncios) appeared underneath the FLASH (check pictures)

I tried putting in start HTML of flash <tr><td class="alt1"> and the end </td></tr> and the FLASH appeared towards the right, outside the measures of the Web.

I need to put the bar "anuncios" above. www.motofanaticos.com (http://www.motofanaticos.com)

these are the HTML of the FLASH in usc_block_11:

<object width="230" height="400">
<param name="movie" value="images/misc/usa_casco.swf">
<embed src="images/misc/usa_casco.swf" width="230" height="400">
</embed>
</object>
And usc_block_12:

<object width="230" height="300">
<param name="movie" value="images/misc/dia_nacional_del_motociclista.swf">
<embed src="images/misc/dia_nacional_del_motociclista.swf" width="230" height="300">
</embed>
</object>


thanks

SOLVED!

With something very simple I solved a problem that already was 4 months old and nobody knew the solution here and other forums in spanish.

The column Right was outside the body of the forum (image 1) because I was using thys simbol "/" to separate texts.

Now, I changed to the symbol "/" by a comma "," and the letter "Y" and ready, Solved!! (image 2).

Ditto ... same error.

Having the same error

Fatal error: Cannot use assign-op operators with overloaded objects nor string offsets in

when using USC and Custom BB Codes

calling

/misc.php?do=bbcode


Is there a work around?

thanks
Alfred

I did a funky workaround for 3.8.2 by turning off USC and then opening the bbcode link and copying the html and making a new page in vBa. I then modified the forumrules template to point to the newly created page. If anyone wants the html file and modified forumrules template, just let me know.

Hi, I'm just starting my first vBulletin Forum and Iinstalled this great plugin!!!

Can anybody tell me how to insert other types of content in this sidebar?
I'm thinking of:

1 - The contents of an external RSS Feed
2 - A little php code for a banner rotator
3 - The latest Threads of a certain forum category
4 - Some board stats

Hi guys,

Just installed this on 3.8.2 as I wanted a column on the right.

The column is basically 2 skyscraper adsense codes and only one will show. The odd thing is it works fine if I put it on a left column?

Any advice would be great

EDIT:

It seems to not want to display both skyscrapers at the same time as each of the 2 skyscrapers work absolutely fine on the right column if the other is removed. But but both work absolutely fine together on the left column?

I had something like that and I added <tr> <td> to the top of the appropriate USC Template and
closed it off with </tr> </td> at the very bottom.

ACP - Styles and Templates - Choose the style you want to work with - Ultimate Side Columns Templates - Place <tr> <td> at the very top and </tr> </td> at the bottom of the appropriate USC Block.

Hello,

I have installed this mod on a test site and it works perfectly......

But when I install it on my "LIVE" board it has (2) bugs....

(1) the side bars never show up.

(2) All of my custom vbulletin pages that have "Custom" headers blow up like a balloon...

I have narrowed the "ballooning" issue to the fact that I am using a "custom" header and that in return...... If I place "$header" in the page my ballooning issue on my custom pages goes away... Due to the fact that it is now properly following $stylevar[outertablewidth]...

But if I do this... My custom header is replaced by the standard...

Also... the collums are "Invisible"

Any Ideas?

P.S. / F.Y.I.
I granted usergroup permissions to all usergroups and the side collumns are still "invisable"?

Also... on test board the ultimate side collums templates show up in their own folder......
When I install on live board the templates are not in their own folder?

Kottonmouth801
06-09-2009, 09:19 PM
:DOk.....

Since my last post I have gotten the Side collums to appear......

"""""FYI.... To those of you using Dreamweaver.... For some reason Dreamweaver was not uploading the .Data files...""""""

Anyway.....

Now the side collumns are appearing but not quite in the right place....

If I choose both collumns "left and right" the right appears properly but I have (2) left collums.

If I choose just the right collumn everything is ok except if I choose the setting to place the right side collumn below the navbar.

If I select this option the the right column ends up on the left bottom near the "Style Selection box".......

Any Ideas?

Also........

I am still having issue with my custom templates with custom headers "Ballooning" and not recognizing the $stylevar[outertablewidth] setting wich is at 63%.....

I have traced the fact that It is doing this due to the fact that this code is missing in the template "$header".....

Any Ideas on a fix?

3.8.2

Interesting mod... could this be modified/updated with an option to only show the column (menu) in certain forums and add an option so it's contents (links) be editable in the admincp on it's edit forum page?

I'm trying to merge this old out-of-date html frame left menu http://www.lycansmovie.com/main-low.html into the forum so it will be quicker to access and update via the threads (instead of having to ftp the updates each time).

login to your server, if using cpanel, go to mysql databases. at the bottom of the page is a link called phpmyadmin. click it. next you will see your databases listed. open the database and look at the tables. find the table named usc_custom_block and click the drop button on that line. then close out of everything. the error should be gone.

An excellent mod! However, I am struggling to add a tag cloud into my sidebar, and without any luck so far. I installed this 'Global Tag Cloud in Side Bar or Anywhere' mod (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=177429) but while the keyword ($vbcloud) allows for the tags to appear on any other template, I can't get it to render within the Ultimate templates. Any pointers appreciated.

I've been using this mod for more than a year but there is one thing that I'd like to fix.

After logging out members are sent to this page ../forums/login.php?do=logout&logouthash=

and the following code is found in the source code for that page.

<!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: usc_table_end -->
</td>

</tr>
</table>

<!-- END TEMPLATE: usc_table_end -->

This is causing some problems and I'd like to add a conditional statement in the usc_table_end template but don't know what condition would indicate that the visitor is looking at ../forums/login.php?do=logout&logouthash=
Any ideas would be appreciated. I want to use something like in the usc_table_end template
<if condition!="???"></td>
$usc_right
</tr>
</table></if>

I know this is incorporated in v4.0 but I'm not running PHP5 on my server yet so I've got to deal with what I have.

01-23-2010, 02:23 PM

When you go into FAQ and try to show BBCODES at the following URL:

You get an error:

Tried fixing by adding an exception for misc on this line in the .xml file but no workie:

On index, forumhome, forumdisplay the side column is fine. However for some reason only on "showthread" the sidecolum expands the page so wide it doesnt fit on the screen and you have to scroll left and right.

this ONLY happens on the showthread template and NONE of the others.

any ideas?

Question: Is it possible to enable it for one style and disable it for another?

Are there any plans to update this, or is there a comparable side column mod available for vB4.0.2?

Same question I have....I love USC for my 3.8.4 board and would really like something for my 4.0.2 board.

Not sure if you figured it out yet or not and why would you want to have two templates on same site (would hate to make changes to both!!!) but its possible.

Login to Admincp, then Ultimate Side Columns options and scroll down to where it says:

I will edit the templates myself - thanks anyway

Then add the appropripate code for side columns in each template that you want to show side columns in. :cool:


An update to this mod would be nice, to 8.x version.

Any news on a VB4 version? This is one of the mods I use that is holding me back from VB 4 upgrade.

This mod has slowed down my page loading somewhat. Currently, I am only using one side column (Block 11). If I go to Plugins & Products>Plugin Manager>Edit USC Block Display, can I just delete out all the other blocks and therefore speed up this plugin?

I am trying to change the background color on my columns, and I can't figure out which option it is in the style manager. Can anyone help?

This is awesome and a great solution to what I'm looking from; however, I'm running into a problem during the install steps. I'm not seeing in my footer the

$spacer_close

I'm running the latest version vbulletin and just recently downloaded/uploaded the USC 2.1 for a fresh install... Is this going to cause me grief if I just drop it into the header at the very end?

Well - I took the plunge and added all the information to the site without the "$spacer_close in my footer file, and it completely broke the formatting of my site. If I disable the plug-in the site goes back to normal.

I tried installing the first version of the plugin and everything as far as the formatting is concerned works; however, the plugin does and gives some code at both the header and footer of the site....so this is obviously needed. Thoughts?

This looks to be exactly what I need except for the fact that I am on 4.1.7. Anyone have any luck getting this to work on vB4? I received a series of errors in my header after importing the xml.

Why not use the Add Block that is built in to v4.x.x

AdminCP > Forums & Moderators > Forums Blocks Manager > Add Block

To turn on the side bar and position:-
AdminCP > Settings > Options > Forum Sidebar and Block Options

To edit sidebar width:-
AdminCP > Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Style Variable Editor > forum_sidebar_width

How do you get it to work with custom widths it seems to be exempt from any size changes, I have my forum set to 960px but when adding this the forums / content get squashed inwards, while the column is always on the outer right.

Don't have that option, the only way I can change the widths is in the options menu, but that's what I've been doing.

Don't have that option......

Which option don't you have? I'm confused as to what you're saying here :confused:

Has anyone found the solution for this error?

Fatal error: Cannot use assign-op operators with overloaded objects nor string offsets in /misc.php

?

USC 2.2 causes this error when misc.php?do=bbcode is loaded
