Love to know how to add another block,

does not work for me. I installed it and nothing changed.

Did you set your style i.d?

not working for me and I looked at the first post where usually any issues are fixed but didn't find any. As soon as I choose latest threads, I get a dbase error. I have seen others complain about this but didn't see a fix. Also, if I choose right side, it goes under the forum. It will only work on the left. I think it needs fixing then it would be really great. Thank you.

It installed this mod to use it as a location for a rotating banner. I was able to accomplish this using the Cyb Flash Banner Rotator. Problem is that the column only displays when I have it set to display on "Index" page and when I set it to display on "All Pages" the column does not display. Now it works fine and displays on All Pages when I use the default vb skin, but not on either of my custom skins.

I know there must be a simple template edit I can do on my custom skins to make the column display on All Pages, but I cannot figure out which template to edit to make this work. Can anyone offer advice?

Ok, I was working on trying to figure out why the path for th e"No Avatar" option was not working. Or, not showing the image that the path leads to for the default avatar. I have been going over the code and cannot figure out what the issue is. Can someone please take a look at the code quoted below and let me know if there is something there that should not be or if there is something that should be there that is not? thanks for the assistance.

// not using a predefined avatar, check for custom
if ($avatar = $db->query_first("SELECT dateline, userid FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "customavatar WHERE userid = " . $vbulletin->userinfo[userid] . ""))
{
// using a custom avatar
$navbaravatarurl = ($vbulletin->options['usefileavatar']) ? "" . $vbulletin->options[avatarurl] . "/avatar$avatar[userid]_" . $vbulletin->userinfo[avatarrevision] . ".gif" : "" . $vbulletin->options[bburl] . "/image.php?u=" . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . "&dateline=" . $avatar['dateline'] . "";
$sc_avatar = "<img src=\"$navbaravatarurl\" alt=\"Your Avatar\" border=\"0\" />";
}
else
{
// no avatar specified
$noavatarurl = $vbulletin->options['default_noavatar_url'];
$nouseavatarchecked = HTML_CHECKED;
$avatarchecked[0] = '';
$sc_avatar = "<img src=\"" . $vbulletin->options[bburl] . "/$noavatarurl\" alt=\"Your Avatar\" border=\"0\" />"; // "<span class=\"smallfont\">No Avatar<br/ >Specified</span>";

Ok, I do have one other issue. When you look at the side bar blocks, the "User Information" block title actually says "User Infomation" leaving the "R" out of information. Now, I did nothing with that, I can;t efven find the right file to make the correction. Any help with that would be great.

Also, I know this mod is unsupported, I am just trying to get ideas from those that have experience with it.

thanks

Check out the error @ www.syntheticmotorsports.org

It's probably a phrase. Do a search in the phrases group (product=sidebar) using the typo, then just replace that mis-spelling with whatever you want.

That worked just dandy for the spelling mistake. Thank you.
