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.

Do I edit my header template to add other boxes?

peterska2 · #**313** 06-18-2006, 01:00 PM

no, just the leftcolumn template

I'm looking for the exact same solution. Is this possible?

Trying to have the column show everywhere EXCEPT register.php. Your help would be truly appreciated! :classic:

In the templates with your column creation code (in your case your navbar and footer) put

Code:

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

on a new line below

Code:

<!-- Left Column Code -->

and

Code:

</if>

on a new line above

Code:

<!-- End Left Column Code -->

For some reason my "All times are GMT +1. The time now is 10:23." code at bottom of page is bumped up to the top of the page.......

I have checked the header and footer everything seems OK. i dunno what the problem could be, please help! As soon as i take out the Column code from my footer it is back to normal. This appears to be a problem only in internet Explorer, Firefox works fine

PHP Code:


			
<if condition="VB_AREA != VBA_PORTAL">
<!-- Left Column Code  -->
</td></tr>
</table>
</td></tr>
</table>
<!-- End Left Column Code -->
</if>

<br />
<div class="smallfont" align="center">$vbphrase[all_times_are_gmt_x_time_now_is_y]</div>
<br />

With this hack installed showthread.php the tabler with the posts/threads is smaller than the navbar.

Any fix to that?

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