I would like to give a huge thanks to Vaupell for letting me use his code as a template. It was a huge help to me. This is my first real mod that I have made so any feedback would be wonderful.


To Do:

• Have options to turn off the site links that you don't need
• Add more Follow Us sites. Example: Blogger maybe

*Update 1.1

I found a small mistake with the myspace code. I had left off the address when I was debugging. This has now been fixed. Just overwrite the old product file with the 1.1 product file.

*Update 1.2

I added Paul M.'s mod removal code and I also added version numbers to the file as well.

*Update 1.3

For users that have forums in a forum directory, the image code in the product file was causing the images not to show up because, it wasn't looking in the right directory due to a "/" on the front of the image code. This has now been tested and corrected.

*Update 1.4

Added YouTube Groups. You can now add the "Follow Us" box anywhere by using <!-- {FOLLOWUS} --> in any template. You can now control the size of the images and the content box. Enjoy!

*Update 1.5

Updated product code to work with vB 4.0.7 - ( Work is in progress on creating options to enable and disable different parts of the mod. )

Wery nice, i know a board who was looking for something like this..

Thanks Vaupell, and thanks again for the template.

How i can display it just below the navbar !
I also want this in my lading page. that is content.php page, one where you publish articles

Same thing as my mod, but its products :) Good work though.

Also, is it possible to reduce the size, its taking too much space. I would love to have 3 small icons just near sign in area

Thanks

the box is displayed on the top, right above forum and under header as well as on bottom.
Is it possible to have it displayed only on bottom? have uninstalled for now.

Could there be a spot for a YouTube group? That would make this great.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I'm on my blackberry right now. But I will be home later today and I will try to answer everyones questions. Also I will add some more options to the code to where you can control more of the size. I will also add the youtube icon as well. Lots of changes to come in 1.4 :)
