OK Kerry-Anne - now enabled.

Glad you pointed me to that - although reading my page source I confess it doesn't help me to solve the problem since I'm not sure how it should look when correct.

Hope it means more to you :o

Thanks,
Mike :)

Perfect :)

You are missing the start of the main table.

Did you use the manual edits? If you did, make sure you have done the header edit.

If you have used the automatic edit, please let me know which automatic edit setting you have chosen then I can look into it.

Aaah - OK then - perhaps this will explain my predicament - when I first upgraded to 2.2, because the previous version hadn't used permissions, I couldn't figure out why the sidebar wouldn't show up, so I uninstalled it and tried manual template edits.

Since that didn't work either (embarrassed to admit) I re-installed and selected automatic edits again - and only then did I get around to reading where I needed to set UG permissions :o

So in essence I've done both - but auto was the latest - having said that, I can't recall choosing a specific setting or method :confused:

I apologize if this is a newbie question...

I have two licensed forums - a local mom's group (not visible to unregistered guests) and a national version of that site that is guest viewable. The local group is older and much more active since the national version has not yet officially "launched" (meaning it is open and members of the local group have been told about it, but there hasn't been a concerted effort to bring new members in as we are planning that in July for our official launch)

To facilitate the launch and to help members of the local group remember to check and comment on posts on the national group, I'd like to set up a side column on the main forum page of the local group that has links to the 10 or so most recent posts on from the national site. (That when clicked would drive the member to the national site to read the thread).

Can I do that using this product? Can you give me a tip on what I would put in the side box to pull the information off the other site?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Is there anyway to get a link and a image link in the sidecolumn

great hack

I'm veiwing my forum using res. 1024 x 768
I'm using a more than 200pix wide table in one of the USC blocks and as a result I get a scroler at the bottom of the page. Is there a limit in width for the blocks so I don't get a scroler using 1024 x 768 res.

Thanks

Have a look in you USC options in the vBOptions to see which you are using.
There are some instructions on vB.com for showing the latest threads in a HTML page. Use these in one of the block templates but make sure you use full urls otherwise it will pull the info for the site that you are displaying it on not the other site.
yes just use the HTML for the link or image
make sure you are using a fluid width. Some fixed width styles have this behaviour due to the way they are coded.

I have tried that and its not working? Do I need to turn a html setting on somewhere?

I downloaded the zip folder, unzipped it. I installed 2.0, then I upgraded to 2.1 then upgraded to 2.2, I saw that the side columns appeared when I had 2.0 installed, but Now that I have 2.2, they dont appear? I can get to the edit area, but it still doesn't make them show up when I change the options. Also which option do I use to post an adsense html code in?
