This is the same post I was referring to. Maybe I asked the wrong question?

Where do I enter this piece of code?
Into a specific template or into the mod html text box?:confused: This is the area which is causing me the confusion.

Everything else works A1 on vb4.0.2, I just cant figure out how to install a side column. Could you explain in laymans terms please?

Thanks

I would like to, but unfortunately I have not enough time to solve also the HTML related issues.

Though, you may have a look at the templates FORUMHOME and FORUMDISPLAY in order to get an idea where to start with, but eventually you will end up to add a second column to many other templates, each of which has its own characteristics.

Thats a step in the right direction. Your help is appreciated. :up:

New try. I have marked as installed, and would appreciate a reply...

There is not much I can add :)

There have been issues with PhotoPost, which is replacing partially the source code of vBulletin, and forgets sometimes about calling the terminating hook: global_complete.

If you see the placeholders in the HTML code, the RBS code in global_complete has not been executed.

I have no solution for fixing this problem.

I have this working very nicely but cannot work out how to use a flash (.swf) file.

I don't understand what this means:

I tried entering the URL of the file, but that doesn't work.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks a lot - then there is no use for me trying to find a solution.

It would be a valid URL to a SWF file, like

http://www.domain.tld/myflash.swf

If this file is publically accessible and the name is conforming to HTML name standards (no spaces, special characters ecc, and if it isn't a script, it will be loaded by the Flash wrapper. Please note, that flash banners also need to specify their dimensions (width, height) in order to show up correctly.

If your flash banner can be shown normally on a HTML page, it really should work in the wrapper, too. However, if the file of the flash banner isn't a true banner, but a camouflaged Java Script or anything else, it won't. The wrapper will not interpret flash banners which aren't conforming to Flash.

If you are sure the flash should work, please send me via PM the link to your file and the expected width and height. I'll have a closer look to it :)

Sorted, my fault entirely, I hadn't uploaded the wrapper!:eek:

BTW this is brilliant, I've nominated it. :up::up::up::D

But, I think it is a bit unclear that you need to put a URL in the image/flash field. Yes it's kind of obvious but I think it would be good to make the instructions very explicit.

Also it would be good if banners could be disabled/enabled in the list, without having to go into each banner's properties to do this.

That was actually a bug (missing check upon upgrade/installation) and got fixed today.

Version 2.2.6 though will not be released immediately, since I'm also adding, as suggested, some of the most important issues to the help file.
