Side column on forumhome only

As Requested here

There are two versions of this mod.

Version One has the side column only down the side of the forum listings.

Version Two has the side column down the side of the forum listings and the whats going on box.

In both instances the instructions are practically the same, apart from the second template edit.

To prevent confusion, I have created two installation files according to which version you require.

To modify the side column, edit the template 'sidecolumn'. The info that is in there is simply a template for you to use. You do not need to use <table> tags in the template as they are included in the forumhome edits.

If you are unsure which version you require, take a look at the attached screenshots and see which one you prefer.

The file names are the version numbers.

Support is limited, and as such will only be provided to those who have clicked install as and when I am able to do so.

They should do. There is no reason why the normal $stylevar won't work
