I have an issue where my forum body loads 100% width, then the sidebar appears. It is very distracting and I'm not sure why it's doing it. Anyone ever seen this? Every time the page is refeshed it jumps around because of this. Thanks!

Here is a screenshot of the code.
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/05/40.png The reason is because the "sidebar_container" div is loading after the "content_container" div. So content_container loads 100% at 100% width, then the sidebar_container div loads and forces itself to the left of content_container causing it to resize to allow itself in. I believe sidebar_container should load itself before content_container to fix this issue. |
I see a similar problem on my forum. When the sidebar is hidden (by clicking the arrows beside it), if you go to another page or refresh, the sidebar appears, then disappears. It should not appear at all if it's hidden.

I see what you are saying but it does not make sense to me that by default the vbulletin sidebar does not load after forum loads, yet when the everywhere sidebar mod is enabled it then takes on this behavior. How can this be a vbulletin 'as designed' issue when it appears only after the mod is enabled? The mod is actually overkill for me anyways, all I really wanted was sidebar to show on forum display and showthread. There doesn't seem to be a mod for this though.

When i have this enabled, my forum pages are totally messed up (see attached screenshot). I know its this plugin causing it because when i disable it, it goes away. It does even does this in the default style.
How do i fix it? |

Did anyone manage to get this working in vbadvanced cmps? I tried via the instructions on the other site but nothing appears.
Anyone have any ideas? Cheers. |

Thanks, but as I said, I followed the instructions to the letter. Doesn't work, something appears to be missing somewhere. Or maybe the person over at the other site did a few more things than he/she remembered. *shrugs* Perhaps vba requires some additional items on its list, will look into it more over the weekend.
EDIT: Oh and if I figure it out I'll let yas know incase anyone else is having issues, :) Btw, is it at all possible to set the sidebar so its minimized/hidden by default instead? |

The above code is different than qG ThaLiX code Try it and let me know how it goes |
Soz, didn't check it, lawl.
But have tried, still no go am afraid. Its possible it could be due to that they only used center columns on their vba. Am going to load up a test system on my home machine and see if it works that way and if so it'll give a rough idea on where to check the code and whatnot I hope. This isn't the first mod I've had that was a bit iffy at first with vba, thankfully from that experience I was able to learn how to fix em, so hopefully this won't be too much of a problem, :) |

Get back to us with good news so that others benefit from your test BTW: use my code i posted to you above and not the code posted by qG ThaLiX . |
You might want to make a note in the 'about' text to inform people that using this will cause the forum body to load before the sidebar loads, thus causing their sites to jump around the page as it loads up. Could have saved me a lot of troubles. Will happily use once the sidebar loads first and my site doesn't jerk around the page, just too distracting for my members so uninstalling for now.

Hi Almannai,
I am on 1.4.3 here is a video of the sidebar refreshing. I did two page refreshes on the video. Happens in ff4 and chrome. Are you not seeing this on other forums? If not do you have an example forum I could see? Anyway here is the video: http://min.us/mvpib98 Thanks |

Well, I managed to find the info I was after in ref to force-setting the sidebar to collapsed mode by default over at vbulletin.com forums.
However, there is a problem in that with ESB enabled it ignores the script. Mind you I've only just installed the script (which works great incase anyone else was after something like this), and am about to head out so can't debug it til I get home later tonight. But when I get time I'll have a look into it and see about adding the code to work with ESB, and unless someone beats me to it I'll post the mod here incase anyone wants it, :) 1 problem solved, an another bug pops up, lawl. Typical, hehehe. EDIT: K, quickly had time to fiddle an figured it instantly out. In order to have the sidebar defaulted to collapsed using ESB you have to either edit the product xml file and import that, or you have to edit the sidebarext_temp template. Either way its the same code to add above both lines that are ref'd via "sidebar.js". Okay to default it to collapsed simply search for the TWO lines (both are identical so just repeat the find): Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="{vb:raw vboptions.bburl}/clientscript/vbulletin-sidebar.js?v={vb:raw vboptions.simpleversion}"></script> Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="{vb:raw vboptions.bburl}/clientscript/vbulletin-sidebar-closed.js?v={vb:raw vboptions.simpleversion}"></script> Thats it. Course we can go further and make it a full option easy enough I guess. Oh and to make it easier I've quickly modded the 1.4.3 ESB with the above code for anyone who doesn't wanna fiddle with the templates, hehe. Hope it helps, :) However I have found a bug in ESB, not sure why it happens and haven't fully tested/checked how many other areas it effects. But on some styles, when ESB is enabled, and you go to the forum home (forum.php) area. Some images get blanked or something. As I said though I've only just noticed this and haven't got the time to debug atm. But thought it best to bring it to attention. EDIT: Quickly added a before/after image so you can see what I mean about the transparency or hiding bug. ESB_Disabled is of course what it looks like when the product isn't running. And as you'll see when its enabled for some reason the background image for those areas vanishes. Anyways, better rush else will be late, lawl. Will look further into the code when I get home later. :) |
I'm getting this showing up in my footer, any ideas?
Code:
$ttmp=explode(',', $vboptions['esidebar_no_hide_exclude']); |

I am more concerned about using php includes and vb conditionals in sidebar. Regards |

Did you try to follow the instructions there. If you did in one of the steps you select html instead you can select php and add your php code |
Almannai - would it be possible to modify the pop-out time of the sidebar as was discussed a few pages back in this thread? My users aren't very happy about the two second delay and I can't seem to find an obvious way of changing this behaviour.
Thanks. |
I just downloaded and installed this mod. Thanks for makingthis possible. Anyway, ist therer an option to make the sidebar visible just at the CMS ? I do not want to use the sidebar in the forum or somewhere else, I just want to show in the CMS ?
The reason for this is a plugin Calles "Budesliga-Tippspiel" I am using, where I can show the ranking of the teams in the forum-sidebar as a block but not in a cms-widget. That is why I want to use the Forum-sidebar but not for the forum :-) As I found multiple options to show the sidebar but not valid for the CMS I still hope to get help here. Many thanks in advance. |
