Disable VBulletin Sidebar Tab
 

I have the vBulletin sidebar setup on my sites home page...it contains things like forum activity (new threads. new posts, activity stream, etc)...and some advertisements.

If you're familiar with the sidebar...there's a tab that can be clicked on to hide/display the sidebar. I would like to disable this tab...so that users cannot hide the sidebar.

I've heard there are ways to do this via plug-in or coding...can someone please explain how to disable the sidebar tab so users cannot hide the sidebar?

Thank You:)

if you are using BOP5's sidebar anywhere, you can configure this by usergroup in the Settings -> Options -> Sidebar Anywhere by BOP5

I don't use the sidebar on any of my sites, but I've just had a look at a site that does and it looks like just adding the following to your additional.css template should do the trick.

Awesome! That was going to be my next question...where I can get the "sidebar anywhere" (I'm assuming it's a plug-in). I heard about it...and wanted to get it. Great to hear what I wanted to do can be done there.:)

Thanks very much Scott!

Thanks z3r0. I'll give it a try.:)

Does the "none" in the code mean that the sidebar can't be closed/hidden?

Thanks again.

Just an quick extra question about the "Sidebar Anywhere by BOP5" plugin (if anyone knows).

If I currently have multiple sidebar blocks setup on my home page (via the vB Blocks Manager)...will installing "Sidebar Anywhere by BOP5" over-ride threse already setup sidebar blocks?

Thanks

No. It just allows you options for where and how to display your existing sidebar.

Thank you.
