Thanks for this! Helped me move the links above the ads which is what I wanted to do

How do we add new sections? For example, I'd like to add a "Latest Videos" and use my RSS feed from the Video Directory-Remixed mod to place them there.

Yea it does you will need to find your template

which everside you use example i use right side sidebar
so i find
Sidebar columm templates >> sc_right_bottom

and add

<BR>

After

 
<td width="10">&nbsp;</td> 
    <td width="$vboptions[sc_width]">

Save it and it will be all lined up

This is from a post a few pages back. But I saw that you could use it.

Hey ry215,

Any way we can change the "-by [threadstarter]" to -by [lastposter] so that the Recent Threads also indicates the most recent user who posted to the thread? I've tried to figure it out, but I'm terminally code illiterate.

Let me know.
