Remove these two lines from these two templates "ss_twincolumns_start" and "ss_twincolumns_end"

Code:

<vb:if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'index' OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'forumdisplay'">

</vb:if>

why don't you recommend it?

odd. I can get these to work in google chrome just fine, however it screws up the content on the homepage. forums look fine, however aren't respecting me saying the blocks should be 170px wide. Simple CSS change, right?

In IE8, the blocks only show up if I'm logged out? wierd....

texasteamplayer

01-11-2010 08:37 PM

must have been a cookie/cache issue, since the blocks started working/changing to what I set them after a bit. Clearing the CMS cache and emptying cookies helps.

As for the IE8 issues.....as well as the disappearance of the sideblocks when I'm logged out...still persist.

IE8 has the page stretching off to the right (with a scroll bar at the bottom), but chrome doesn't. Neither browser show the blocks when logged in.

got the logged in logged out issue. Doesn't seem that the blocks work when using the forum template simple black. Switched back to default template/use forum default, and works fine now.

still the big scrolling to the right in IE8. come to www.teamplayergaming.com and see.

blocks seem to be working fine on all pages. even blogs and articles.

Thanks for this nice mod! I'm wondering how to fix this issue, though. When I add it to blogs or other sections, the styling on the twin columns does not display, although content still displays just fine. Any help you can provide would be most appreciated!

Never mind, I added OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread' to ss_twincolumns_start but not to ss_twincolumns_end

Just read the instructions in the mod post HenryCell ;)

I downloaded the XML file and tried to upload it, but I get the following error:

Invalid File Specified

I then renamed the file to see if that would help and it didn't.

Can anyone help me?

Is there any way to change the height of the column to just match the side of the forums? I don't want to have the column go all the way down the sides of the page as it leaves all this white space on the sides below it where the forum statistics are etc.

Thank you.

I know this is a daft question how do I change to this?

Thank you

It is recommended that you should edit doc_minwidth to 950 and doc_margin to Top=0 Right=10 Bottom=0 Left=10 .. so that you have more space for forums and contents won't get squashed.

Seven Skins

Look for doc_margin in StyleVars of your style.

Is there a way to disable this mod on the login page?

Seven Skins

By default this hack only works on forumhome and forumdisplay.

I was wondering if this could be modified to work on user profile pages instead of on forum. Any advice in the right direction is greatly appreciated :)

I'm attempting to apply your mod to my newly professionally updated forum VB4.1.5 but I keep getting the same problem. It makes way for the side panels beautifully, but then they are placed in the wrong place, on the forums of the page at the top and tucked under the stats at the bottom. I am working on the default template, nothing fancy. and I have tried reverting all my templates to default settings.

Please can you help I would really like to use your mod.

Here's a grab of what's going on...

I get the space made but nothing shows up there, any clues ? thanks

Seven Skins

11-26-2011 07:41 PM

Don't forget to add these:

Code:

{vb:raw ss_twincolumns_start}

{vb:raw ss_twincolumns_end}

Martyh

11-26-2011 08:52 PM

Thanks for replying, I have done that.

Seven Skins

11-26-2011 09:21 PM

Without a link to your site it is not possible to tell how to fix this issue.

If you trying to do this in custom style then you have to find where to edit the navbar and footer templates.

Thanks SS, it works fine with a new install. I really didn't have too much installed other than the basic program on default style and a couple of mods though. As I add those mods back in I'll let you know which one causes a problem for your reference, again I appreciate the help. Thanks

You can try this:

Code:

.ss_twincolumns_wrapper {

  padding-left: 175px;

  padding-right: 175px;

}



.ss_twincolumns_inner {

  width: 100%;

}



.ss_twincolumns_floatwrap {

  float: left;

  width: 100%;

  margin-left: -175px;

}



.ss_twincolumns_content {

  float: right;

  margin-right: -175px;

  width: 100%;

  position: relative;

}



.ss_twincolumns_content_margin {

  padding: 0px 5px 0px 5px;

}



.ss_twincolumns_left {

  float: left;

  width: 175px;

  position: relative;

}



.ss_twincolumns_left_margin {

  padding: 10px 5px 0px 0px;

}



.ss_twincolumns_right {

  float: right;

  width: 175px;

  position: relative;

  margin-right: -175px;

  position: relative;

}



.ss_twincolumns_right_margin {

  padding: 10px 0px 0px 5px;

}



.ss_twincolumns_clear {

  clear: both;

}



.ss_column_head {

  background: {vb:stylevar forumhead_background};

  padding: 0;

  font:{vb:stylevar forumhead_font};

  color:{vb:stylevar forumhead_color};

  border: {vb:stylevar forumhead_border};

  -moz-border-radius-top{vb:stylevar right}: {vb:stylevar forumhead_top_corner_radius};

  -moz-border-radius-top{vb:stylevar left}: {vb:stylevar forumhead_top_corner_radius};

  -webkit-border-top-{vb:stylevar right}-radius: {vb:stylevar forumhead_top_corner_radius};

  -webkit-border-top-{vb:stylevar left}-radius: {vb:stylevar forumhead_top_corner_radius};

  padding: {vb:math {vb:stylevar padding}/2-1} 0;

}



.ss_column_body {

  background: {vb:stylevar forumrow_background};

  padding: 0;

  border-bottom: {vb:stylevar forumbits_border};

  border-{vb:stylevar left}: {vb:stylevar forumbits_border};

  border-{vb:stylevar right}: {vb:stylevar forumbits_border};

  margin-bottom: 8px;

}

PS. Code is not tested as I do not have this installed on any of my site.
