Create Leftside Rightside Column - includes Table(s) · **Released**: 06-03-2007

These instructions are with table(s) added into the empty column you see after using the instruction provided by Floris & Jake Bunce tutorials in Quick Tips forum @ vBulletin.com. I have little changes, but in whole it is the same. This is for displaying under navbar menu. If you are using a portal, you can add modules within forum and those instruction are posted within other sites forums.

Message Area Width (pixels): [440px]
(This value allows you to specify the width in pixels of the text box used for all message posting in vBulletin)
Code Block Width (pixels): [440px]
(This value controls the width of [code], [php] and [html] bbcode blocks. You may set this value to 'auto', but if you do, Internet Explorer will stretch the width of the block rather than inserting a scrollbar.)

You also need to use postbit instead of postbit_legacy to utilize the most of message space.

View images below.

Yes, I do know many have posted variation of this and this is a variation of that. It is place under navbar and you may choose both to display at same time.

njoker555 · #43 07-09-2007, 04:40 PM

i was wrong lol, in silver and red - if you go to the register page - the right bar is gone and it goes under the forum time

Thanks for the help. I didn't want to go with a CMPS because I just wanted the calendar, not the everything else. Unfort. Ihave been unable to get just the calendar to show in weekly view (and not the montly calendar like yours displays). Thanks for the help.

I had this problem too. I just added the green text (the conditional stuff) to where he says to add it and it works. Now I no longer have that nasty looking box on my register.php page.

     <script language="" type="text/javascript">
