Put a Column on the Left Side of Every Forum Page · **Released**: 07-08-2005

This little PRODUCT will provide you with a template to put content in a column going down the left side of every forum page.

What you put there is limited only by your imagination.

This can easily be combined with the right column product to have a column on both sides.

To use this with the right column product , change the footer code to:

Code:

<!-- Right Column Code  -->
</td>
<td width="160" valign="top" align="left">$rightcolumn</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr>
</table>
<!-- End Right Column Code -->

Changes in 1.1
Some very important changes were made to the header and footer template changes. Please modify your header and footer code to use the new version.

This is now a PRODUCT and not a plugin. Use the product manager to import it. If you are upgrading, copy the contents of your left_column template to notepad BEFORE you install the product. Then, replace the template contents with your backup.

This version now includes sample html in the left_column template. Thanks to iguanairs for that code.

OK, so it's a goofy question, but is this 3.6 compatible? I guess I can't see why it wouldn't be.

right i added this to my site today all worked well but rather than use the right hand space and move the rest of the site more to the left it made the topics test smaller and fitted itself into the site keeping the left and right margins would this be because i am using a fluid template and not a normal template? maybe a dum question but i have seen this mod on other sites and they maneged to fit it in the way i wanted

nevermind, I got it working

BrandiDup · #**326** 07-06-2006, 07:34 PM

Amy, do you happen to know the script to stop this from showing on vba? I've got this working (and it looks great!) but I don't want it to show on the front page since I've got my navigation module on there already. Thanks

Brandi, put

Code:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'adv_index'">

before the code you added to your header and footer and

Code:

</if>

after it and it will stop it showing on vBAdvanced

i have a question i have this mod on my forum but what i want to do is add it to show only on the forum home page ware would i add the code on the forumhome template?

peterska2 · #**330** 07-11-2006, 11:02 AM

in the header and footer templates before the edit that you make for this to work add

Code:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT=='index'">

then after the added code add

Code:

</if>

Alternatively there is a modification that just displays the column on the forumhome.
