Side column on forumhome only

As Requested here

There are two versions of this mod.

Version One has the side column only down the side of the forum listings.

Version Two has the side column down the side of the forum listings and the whats going on box.

In both instances the instructions are practically the same, apart from the second template edit.

To prevent confusion, I have created two installation files according to which version you require.

To modify the side column, edit the template 'sidecolumn'. The info that is in there is simply a template for you to use. You do not need to use <table> tags in the template as they are included in the forumhome edits.

If you are unsure which version you require, take a look at the attached screenshots and see which one you prefer.

The file names are the version numbers.

Support is limited, and as such will only be provided to those who have clicked install as and when I am able to do so.

Important information regarding support - 20/04/06
Due to time constraints and the amount of things that are being planned for future modifications, priority support will now be provided here. Support provided in this thread will be on an as and when basis.

Same problem here. Any idea?

Are you installing this as a plugin? It is a product xml. I have uninstalled and reinstalled this on my test boards and have not experienced any problems.

Try downloading a fresh zip and trying again, and if it still doesn't work, then let me know.

installed.

didn't find: <thead>
<if condition="$show['guest']">


Maybe because I edited forumhome template more than once, please say detailed where the lines are. thanks.

peterska2

These lines are practically right at the top of your forumhome template, directly after the first table tag.

They should do. There is no reason why the normal $stylevar won't work

@ Rated: it should work fine on all widths.

I have just specified a width of 800px on my test site with this installed and the resulting site is attached in the image.

If you are not getting this, then it is due to modifications to your forumhome template and without a copy of your template to debug, I cannot help further.

Replied, the problem lies with your google ads. They will need to be a narrower format to stop breaking your width.

Rated

05-02-2006 01:27 AM

Amazing dude, that was fast! - Im suprised it was the ads because i thought they were lower down then the site panel :)

One question tottaly of topic - Do you know how to seperate each catogary and forums, from another catogary and forums, like here on vb.org?

thanks again!

Works great on my forum!:banana:
Couldnt find

Code:

<thead>

        <if condition="$show['guest']">

        <!-- guest welcome message -->

So i put the first edit in after

Code:

<!-- main -->

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

And seems to work fine, lets my shoutbox stay full width too...;)

In your forum home template

find

Code:

<!-- peterska2 side column -->

<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

<tr>

<td>

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<!-- / peterska2 side column -->

replace with

Code:

<!-- peterska2 side column -->

<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

<tr>

<td valign="top">

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<!-- / peterska2 side column -->

That should solev the problem
