It's the only reason that I haven't converted my forum to vb4 as I'm still using vbadmanagement as it seems to work.

This looks much better, but need to be able to work out how to display the add correct. Could I use the new Forum Blocks with this code?

My website is http://www.ozaudi.com, you can see what I am trying to achieve...

UPDATE I've managed to get it to work in one of my new forums (www.ozbmw.com) that is running on VB4.0.2....

However, if I use the VB Blocks, the user can close them and that's not ideal. So still after any help with what template could be used for a right hand column (hopefully to sit where the current blocks are).

In order to ad a column to the standard layout of your pages, you would have to add a table right below the <body> tag and add one or more columns, and close the table right at the bottom of the page, before the </body> tag.

Your layout would roughly look like:

HTML Code:

<body>

<table>
    <tr>
        <td style="width: 100%;">
            Original template contents (header, navbar, contents, footer)
        </td>
        <td style="width: 160px;">
            Additional right column, 160 pixels wide.
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>

</body>
