This tutorial will teach you how to add a nice sidebar in the first post of every thread (unless you change it not to).

Just follow the simple steps below.

Open up your postbit template, and find:

Code:

		<div id="post_message_$post[postid]">
			$post[message]
		</div>

Change that to:

Code:

<div class="content">
		<div id="post_message_$post[postid]">
			$post[message]
		</div>

</div>


<if condition="$post[postcount] == 1">
<div class="sidebar">

<table class="sidebaritem">
<tr>
<td width="20px"><img src="images/postbit/user.png"></td>
<td><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">Authors Profile</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<div style="height:4px;"></div>
<table class="sidebaritem">
<tr>
<td width="20px"><img src="images/postbit/heart.png"></td>
<td><a href="reputation.php?p=$post[postid]">Add to Reputation</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<div style="height:24px;"></div>
<table class="sidebaritem">
<tr>
<td width="20px"><img src="images/postbit/add.png"></td>
<td><a href="newreply.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newreply&amp;noquote=1&amp;p=$post[postid]" rel="nofollow">Reply to Thread</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<div style="height:4px;"></div>
<table class="sidebaritem">
<tr>
<td width="20px"><img src="images/postbit/printer.png"></td>
<td><a href="printthread.php?t=$post[threadid]">Print Thread</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<div style="height:4px;"></div>
<table class="sidebaritem">
<tr>
<td width="20px"><img src="images/postbit/email.png"></td>
<td><a href="sendmessage.php?do=sendtofriend&t=$post[threadid]">Share Thread</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<div style="height:4px;"></div>
<table class="sidebaritem">
<tr>
<td width="20px"><img src="images/postbit/flag_red.png"></td>
<td><a href="report.php?p=$post[postid]">Report Thread</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</if>
<div class="clear"></div>

Now in the same template, find:

Code:

$post[signature]

Replace it with this:

Code:

<if condition="$post[postcount] !== 1"><div style="width:910px;background:#D1D1E1;height:1px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;"></div><br /><div style="width:90%;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;">$post[signature]</div></if>

Close that template, and go into All Style Options, and find the Additional CSS Definitions box. In the second box down, add this:

Code:

.content {
	width:700px;
	margin:10px;
	float:left;
}

.sidebar {
	width:200px;
	margin:10px;
	float:right;
padding: 5px;
}


.sidebaritem {
        border: 1px solid #D1D1E1;
border-left: 2px solid #D1D1E1;
	width:200px;
background: #fbfbfb url(images/misc/alts.gif) repeat-x;
padding: 5px;
}


.clear {
	clear:both;
}

Then upload the attached file to your /images/ folder.

Now go to vBulletin Options, find Use Legacy (Vertical) Postbit Template, and make sure it's checked to "No".

You should have a working sidebar. In CSS, you will need to edit widths, and colors to suit your forum.

If you want more icons, please go to FamFamFam.com and find the silk icons.

Sorry guys, my site was hacked. This modification still works great though. You can see the preview in the 4th post or so.
