Hello,

Which class do I need to use to show a sidebar block in in a custom vB page, but having in mind that:

I don't want to show any content of the native vB sidebar (eg I want to include a custom search box).
The class(-es) must be available even to those members who have just the vBulletin forum (without CMS).Greatfull

If you are running firefox, use firebug, it can easily tell you what class and which template has been used.

You will probadly get st like this, just a example there are some collapsed class.

ul id="sidebar" style="opacity: 1;">
<li>
<div class="block smaller">
<div class="blocksubhead">
<div class="widget_content blockbody floatcontainer">
</div>
<div class="underblock"></div>
</li>
<li>
</ul>


Not only for the sidebar but in general.

@Jeff

Thank you for your reply but your code shows only the content (see the attachment). I also need the outline block and the block header.

By the way I seen that you're calling the class widget_content blockbody. Is this including in the standard css files?

You do not need the CMS to access the sidebar layout. Copy the sidebar.css stylesheet into and save it as a new template, change #sidebar and #sidebar_container to classes, change the descending css to match the id > class change, and embed the customized stylesheet in whatever page you plan to use this in (hopefully with a plugin). Check out the block_html template for the exact markup to use.
