Not sure where else to look for this, but I've managed to get the default vBulletin sidebar added to forumdisplay and showthread by using 2 plugins and some minor edits to the forumdisplay and showthread templates (no file edits now ).

Everything worked just fine when I was doing everything via file and template edits, but now that I've moved the file edits to the plugin system, I ran into a.....very odd issue lol.

If in vBulletin Options, I set Store CSS Stylesheets as Files? to No, everything looks as it should. However, if I set Store CSS Stylesheets as Files? to Yes, the sidebar goes all crazy



The contents of both plugins are pretty much the same and I'm using the hook locations forumdisplay_complete and showthread_complete...

PHP Code:

$specialtemplates = array(
    'activeblocks'
);

$globaltemplates = array(
    'block_blogentries',
    'block_cmsarticles',
    'block_newposts',
    'block_sgdiscussions',
    'block_tagcloud',
    'block_threads',
    'block_html',
    'tag_cloud_link'
);

cache_templates($specialtemplates, $style['templatelist']);
cache_templates($globaltemplates, $style['templatelist']);

// ### SIDEBAR #################################################
$show['sidebar'] = false;
// disable blocks for ie6
if ($vbulletin->options['enablesidebar'] AND !(is_browser('ie') AND !is_browser('ie', 7)) AND !VB_API)
{
    require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_block.php');
    $blockmanager = vB_BlockManager::create($vbulletin);
    $sidebar = $blockmanager->getSidebarHTML();
    if ($sidebar)
    {
        $show['sidebar'] = true;
    }

    $show['sidebarposition'] = vB_Template_Runtime::fetchStyleVar($vbulletin->options['sidebarposition'] == 0 ? 'left' : 'right');
}

vB_Template::preRegister('SHOWTHREAD',array('sidebar' => $sidebar)); 


Also, the css has been added to both templates...

SHOWTHREAD

FIND:
{vb:cssfile toolsmenu.css,postlist.css,showthread.css,postbit.css,options.css,attachment.css,poll.css,lightbox.css}
REPLACE WITH:
{vb:cssfile toolsmenu.css,postlist.css,showthread.css,postbit.css,options.css,attachment.css,poll.css,lightbox.css,sidebar.css,tagcloud.css,widgets.css}

FIND:
<!--[if lt IE 8]>{vb:cssfile toolsmenu-ie.css,postlist-ie.css,showthread-ie.css,postbit-ie.css,poll-ie.css}<![endif]-->
REPLACE WITH:
<!--[if lt IE 8]>{vb:cssfile toolsmenu-ie.css,postlist-ie.css,showthread-ie.css,postbit-ie.css,poll-ie.css,sidebar-ie.css}<![endif]-->

FORUMDISPLAY

FIND:
{vb:cssfile toolsmenu.css,forumbits.css,forumdisplay.css,threadlist.css,options.css}
REPLACE WITH:
{vb:cssfile toolsmenu.css,forumbits.css,forumdisplay.css,threadlist.css,options.css,sidebar.css,tagcloud.css,widgets.css}

FIND:
{vb:cssfile toolsmenu-ie.css,forumbits-ie.css,forumdisplay-ie.css,threadlist-ie.css,options-ie.css}
REPLACE WITH:
{vb:cssfile toolsmenu-ie.css,forumbits-ie.css,forumdisplay-ie.css,threadlist-ie.css,options-ie.css,sidebar-ie.css}

So now I'm at a loss as to why when I turn on Store CSS Stylesheets as Files?, it gets thrown off. Any ideas?
