Right (or left) side bar on forumhome · **Released**: 05-31-2004

Desciption: This mod will add a right side bar (or left side bar) or divide the forum home into two columns. One with main forum info and additional ones for whatever info you want to add to. For my hack, the addtional column contains guest message, forum stats, user birthday, upcoming event and 1 custom cell.

Installation time: 5-10 mins
Template mod: 1
- FORUMHOME

Requested by exesko here

If you want to make your custom cell(s) collapsable, REPLACE:

HTML Code:

<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="thead">
			Your custom cell.
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="alt1" width="100%"><div class="smallfont">Some text for your custom cell go here!</div></td>
	</tr>
</tbody>

WITH:

HTML Code:

<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="thead">
			<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_events')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_events" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_events].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
			Your custom cell.
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="alt1" width="100%"><div class="smallfont">Some text for your custom cell go here!</div></td>
	</tr>
</tbody>

------
Click install if you use it.

what appears to be messed up; it looks to be working perfectly? if you mean your header is shorter is width compaired to your <body>, then you just need to match up the width of your body... maybe make your forums non-dynamic.

Update:
it appears that <td class="thead"> should be changed to <td class="tcat">; everything appears to working correctly now. any reason why i should keep this portion of the code changed?

Hi , When I paste google adsense code in the sidebar, the ads appear fine but the main content area grows a large gap above it. It is fine if anything like images or text is used.

Any help ?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
