Yeah, so it seems.

I rated this mod "terrible" and don't use it but I'm killing time so will provide some help for those of you who cannot get it to show.

Some custom skins need to have the template manually edited which should solve the problem for anyone who has it installed "correctly" but it doesn't show.

Styles & Templates -> Search in Template -> sc_

That will show all the templates mods you need to add.

Example: If you want a right column add contents of sc_right_top where you want the column to start.

This is sc_right:

<br />
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0">
<tr valign="top">
<td>

Then add contents of sc_right_bottom code where you want to column to end.

[Front Range 4x4]

Continuing from above:

sc_right_bottom is:

<td width="10">&nbsp;</td>
<td width="$vboptions[sc_width]">
$sc_user
$sc_stats
$sc_latest_threads
$sc_poll
$sc_ads
$sc_links
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />

You can try sc_right below the navbar and sc_right_bottom at the beginning of the footer and then play around. If you don't understand basic HTML you're better off leaving it alone.

$sc_user, $sc_stats, $sc_latest_threads, $sc_ads & $sc_links can be arranged as you'd like them to appear of deleted at your preference. $sc_poll is a mess and probably should be avoided.

Hope this helps.

Let me know.

Bump. Anyone? Any ideas?
