I recently added the following modifications:
- Current Staff Online Forum Sideblock and CMS Widget by BOP5 (BirdOPrey5)
- Members who have visited (Sideblock) (Paul M.)
- Block - Users Online (Lynne)
The reasons were for the same reason I added a Quick Style Chooser menu to the sub-navigation bar. Not a lot of people seem to scroll to the bottom. The sidebar makes them aware of what's going on and makes it obvious you have to scroll down if you want to see more.
I wanted to add blocks to the sidebar that would contain the forum statistics and icon legend from the What's Going On? block at the bottom. How would I do this?
Also, we have the Usergroup Legend Color Bar modification installed, and I wanted to either move it to the top under the navigation or also make it into a block. The first option would probably be better, though.
