Right side column on forum home and forum display

As the title says this mod simply puts a column on forumhome and forumdisplay pages.

Installation:
Download the attached XML file.
Import the product.
Edit navbar and footer templates. (See below)



Add this to the very end of navbar template:
HTML Code:
{vb:raw ss_rightcolumn_start}
PS. After edit the code above must be the last line in the navbar template.



Add the code below to the first line of footer template:
HTML Code:
{vb:raw ss_rightcolumn_end}


Footer template after adding the code:
Code:
{vb:raw ss_rightcolumn_end}

<vb:if condition="!empty($ad_location['ad_footer_start']) or !empty($ad_location['global_above_footer'])">
<div style="clear: {vb:stylevar left}">
  {vb:raw ad_location.ad_footer_start}
  {vb:raw ad_location.global_above_footer}
</div>
</vb:if>

......


Once you have installed the modification edit "SevenSkins - Templates > ss_rightcolumn_contents to put your advert or contents in the side column.


Finally don't forget to click install.


Thanks to Lynne for additional css plugin code which I used in this modification.


PS. Do not use my side column mods together use only one.


================================================== ==

Code:
 
If you want to enable or disable this hack on different pages of the forum ..

Has anybody made this work with widgets? Seven Skins - do you think this is possible? Care to publish an example ?

P.S. How does this interact with widgets being displayed on ForumHome?

You mean sidebar blocks?

That's what I believe you mean and if so yes, it will work and only require a few edits, here's a shot from a 4.1.3 default style:

Thanks for the reply Superman. This is what I was afraid of. What I'd like to do, which is what VB ought to do is to intermix banners, widgets and other useful items in a consistent right side column. So the idea is to be able to use widget and/or forum blocks in the new right side column, rather than adding a separate column.

Anybody know how to do something like this?

Just want to say big thanks to Seven Skins for this mod, takes a wee bit of work to get working with a customised design but well worth it due to the stupidity of vB4 not having the ability to have the sidebar on pages other than FORUMHOME.

So thanks a lot!

I have just suffered with this myself and after trying clears, clearfix's and all sorts, in the end it all came down to simply adding overflow: hidden to the opening div that contains your background.

Mine for example was body_wrapper so in the navbar template I found:
Code:
<div class="body_wrapper">
and changed it to: (show only to Guests on ForumDisplay)
Code:
<div class="body_wrapper"<vb:if condition="$show['guest'] && THIS_SCRIPT == 'forumdisplay'"> style="overflow:hidden;"</vb:if>>
In your case I believe you're using bodyWrapper so just copy the red section and paste it into the bodyWrapper div.

I should say I'm using this on vB 4.1.3

An easier way is to place
Code:
{vb:raw ss_rightcolumn_end}
at the very top of the footer template (above everything else).

My only issue with this hack is that the column is a few pixels higher than my forum display and I can't figure out how to adjust it I have tried adding padding as alluded to on page 11 ... or 10 .. whatever ... and it doesn't do anything.
