hi, first of all i have to say that im french so sorry for my english

Hi have to thanks the person who have made this hack, its great !

i have read the forum and i havnt see an answer about this problem (appear only on the post)

(see attachment)

Thanks alot !

Then you haven't been reading too good :p
I reported it already here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=106

And pete posted a fix for it too, here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=110

It worked for me, so try it out!

i allready done this, it reduce the space as show the picture but not correct the problem

Show me the code you fixed...

Cause it's excactly the same prob me and pete had so it should wrk for you as well....

Mayeb we can see what you did wrong

ok that's the beginning of my code in the postbit template:

Hmm, well that is EXCACTLY the same as what I have in my $posttemplate.
So the prob isn't there

Hmm, i checked your boards source code versus mine and found 1 difference:
That is from your forum. Mine shows style="width:100%".
All the rest is the same. So it seems you have your board at 98% instead of 100% and that makes the postbit slightly smaller then the header above it.

omg ! thx i didnt notice to this ! thants alot !

I'm also having the same problem as feujman and I've already tried Pete's fix with no luck. Here is the post bit code...any ideas?

and from the source:

have you try the solution that he told me ?

yea sure did, added it to the post about 2 seconds before you replyed hehe

I guess could this be it?

i think you could be right !

umm. changing that does fix the problem...but it also shoves the entire forum to the left of the page....I guess thats just a consequence. Or is there someway to get around that?

show me what it looks like now.

your menu is to the left and the forum gets moved against it? or something else?

No basically what happens is when the 0 25 0 25 is used.
The forums are spaced 25 pixels from the left of the browser window.

So when I make it 0 0 0 0, the forums are completely to the left, up against the left side of the browser.
Not really a big deal, but its kinda annoying me lol, I'll play with it tonight and see what I can come up with

Oh, well i have it set at 0 0 0 0 so my logo does indeed allign to the top left (i hate space between a logo and the browser.
BUT
The rest of the forum has a 10 pixel spacing around it. You can specify that seperatly.
I'll check later when i get home where i specified that, but i'm fairly sure it was in the style screen, right below the logo url... i set the body or table margin there

Ok this hack causes the board to use 1 extra querie because the sidebar template isn't added to the cache.
In order to do so do this:

open global.php

find this:
replace with this:
Dark_Wizard, please update your hack with this info!

Has anyone successfully installed this without any of the problems that are posted in this thread. I dont want it for every page, is there another solution

Mike

Omega]Well, this hack works great, but I have a question: How do I need to change the template (forumhome) to get the right sidebar ONLY on forumhome? I tried changing code, but it messed up the board ^_^;
Thanks for help :)

What am I doing wrong here? I installed the hack and made the template mods. I enabled the left column and on my forums it mades the space on the left side, but nothing is displayed. I did SAVE the settings to the adcolumn area as the instructions said, but nothing is displaying. If I look at the left column template code is there and it should be at least display the column heading.

HELP?!?!

nice hack DW..

going to install it later..

but I lcik INSTSALL BUddy!!!!

I have the exact same problem :ermm:
For now it is installed but not active

not working in 3.0.1! Whats done differently in 3.0.1?

Reading the code i don't see anything that would cause a problem with any vbb versions (unless there is a major structure change)

You create a template and add it to your forumhome template, nothing more really

Yeah, I don't get it... all my templates related to this I didn't revert back, and just inserting that 1 $sidebar in global doesn't pull it up..... I looked over the 2 versions for code changes and couldn't figure it out. I ended up using the older version and threw in a couple extra variable definitions.

Question: this hack has had some fixes along the way, I want to know if these fixes are now updated in the 1st post attachment?

[QUOTE=BlackTiger]
2.) I also see the left sidebar in the login screen check http://www.satellitefun.org/bbs but I don't want it there. How can I remove it so it still shows up in my forums, but not anymore in the login screen?

To fix this problem of showing on the login screen add:

at the very top of your sidebar template. At the very bottom of your sidebar template, add:

I didn't see that question answered here and thought I would post the solution for future reference.

Thanks,

Dave

You're great, it wasn't answered indeed. Thanks!
I've got now vb 3.01 and will have a look this week if I can install it again.
Thanks again!

Where do you add the first code??


Sorry my brain isn't working right this morning! :nervous:

Open your sidebar template. The very first line is where you will add:

Now, go to the very last line of the sidebar template and add:

Thanks,

Dave

How i do to displaying the Sidebar only of the indexpage ?

Tanks.

btw: sorry for my bad english

How do you go about removing the changes made by version 1.0? I've reverted out the adcolumns_left and adcolumns_right already. How do you remove the Advertisement Column(s) option from the vBulletin Options menu?

It's ok, I found it. I used phpmyadmin to remove it from the settinggroup table.

will this work woth vBadvance?

if so, is there any code i need to change to make it code

To only display the sidebar on your forumhome (index page) add the header and footer code to the FORUMHOME template and Call the sidebar into index.php instead of global.php (just add the eval command to the bottom of index.php instead).

Create the new sidebar template as is in the instructions and your done.

ihave a problem, i know i am suing VB 3.0.0 i am not a novice

but there is not global.php not @ all

BTW i am helping out somone else so maylbe they just did'nt upload it, but then the forum would not work right?

This has been asked a few times.
Is there a solution?

New to vBulletin.

Did you add the sidebar template?

Yes, I followed the instructions.

I got it working when I moved the openning tables from the header template to the navbar template.

Perhaps there were overlapping html tags?!?

Thanks for the quick response.

Well you should have a code in the header *and* footer templates. (from what I remember) But if it works, who cares! lol
