Also, if anyone is looking to display the sidebar on every page of their forum instead of just on forumhome, these are the instructions you should follow to do so.

In your FORUMHOME template, find this:

I get it on to the VBadvancedportal as well ... not really what I want ...

Hello I recently moved my forum to a new server, and now something funny has happend. My message posting box is not aligned correctly. Everytime I create a new thread, or post a reply the text area is not aligned to the left side properly. Any help would be great.

Below is a screenshot:

Aerohead has been updated for vBulletin 3.6.7. This brings it to internal version 1.02. A few images have been added to the /misc folder and some code changes have been made such as the addition of template hooks that accommodate the upcoming vBulletin Blog and Project Tools products.

I don't have the exact code, but if you search on vBulletin.org, you'll find a number of hacks that can do this.

You would need to enclose them within only one <div> but leave the .usrbit class intact. Also, make sure to add a <br /> after each line to keep them separated with a line break. These are the exact steps you should take:

In your postbit_legacy template, find this code:

<if condition="$post['usertitle']"><div class="usrbit">User Title: <strong>$post[usertitle]</strong></div></if>
			<if condition="$post['rank']"><div class="usrbit">User Rank:<strong>$post[rank]</strong></div></if>
				<if condition="$post['joindate']"><div class="usrbit">$vbphrase[join_date]: <strong>$post[joindate]</strong></div></if>
				<if condition="$post['field2']"><div class="usrbit">$vbphrase[location_perm]: <strong>$post[field2]</strong></div></if>
				<if condition="$post['age']"><div class="usrbit">$vbphrase[age]: <strong>$post[age]</strong></div></if>
				<div class="usrbit">
					$vbphrase[posts]: <strong>$post[posts]</strong>
				</div>
				<if condition="$show['infraction']"><div class="usrbit">$vbphrase[infractions]: <strong>$post[warnings]/$post[infractions] ($post[ipoints])</strong></div></if>
				<if condition="$show['reputation']"><div class="usrbit"><if condition="$show['reppower']">$vbphrase[reppower]: <strong><span id="reppower_$post[postid]_$post[userid]">$post[reppower]</span> </if><span id="repdisplay_$post[postid]_$post[userid]">$post[reputationdisplay]</span></strong></div></if>

Replace it with this:

<div class="usrbit"><if condition="$post['usertitle']">User Title: <strong>$post[usertitle]</strong><br /></if>
			<if condition="$post['rank']">User Rank:<strong>$post[rank]</strong><br /></if>
				<if condition="$post['joindate']">$vbphrase[join_date]: <strong>$post[joindate]</strong><br /></if>
				<if condition="$post['field2']">$vbphrase[location_perm]: <strong>$post[field2]</strong><br /></if>
				<if condition="$post['age']">$vbphrase[age]: <strong>$post[age]</strong><br /></if>
				
					$vbphrase[posts]: <strong>$post[posts]</strong><br />
				<if condition="$show['infraction']"><br />$vbphrase[infractions]: <strong>$post[warnings]/$post[infractions] ($post[ipoints])</strong><br /></if>
				<if condition="$show['reputation']"><if condition="$show['reppower']">$vbphrase[reppower]: <strong><span id="reppower_$post[postid]_$post[userid]">$post[reppower]</span> </if><span id="repdisplay_$post[postid]_$post[userid]">$post[reputationdisplay]</span></strong></if>
	</div>

It's missing a line break between the header and content, right? Edit the CMPS adv_portal template and find this line:

<table align="center" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="page" width="100%">

Change "page" to "content"

The problem is caused by your four columns of smilies, but this can be fixed by making the post box narrower. Under "Stylevars," change your "Message Area Width" to 400px or so.

No, but the .PSD is included so you are free to make it blue, yourself!

3 things.. running 3.6.7

Nothing is showing up in the latest thread box.

I have two main categories on my test board. MAIN and TEST. I have several sub categories under TEST. This area of the forum is shoved down under the "Another Section" box and spans the full width instead of nested in the right like MAIN is.

Why do you have it set up to pull something from vbmode.com? In Firefox, I have NoScript installed, and it is showing that there is something that is drawing from that site and by default is currently blocking it.

You may want to fix the coding so that it no longer is pulling from vbmode.com. Right now, the installed version I have is pulling the mass majority of the images from vbmode instead of my server. I'm sure you don't want that drain on your server.

For some reason, when I upgraded to vBulletin 3.6.7 on my demo forum, it converted all URLS to absolute URLS. Thanks for notifying me about that. I've updated the .zip once more with the correct image paths.

There are three reasons as to why the latest threads script isn't displaying properly.

1) Your forum is offline when it should be online
2) Rhe RSS options have not yet been enabled
3) Your posts are all in private forums.

Check to see if your subcategories are set as child forums under Test. Also, make sure that Test is set to not act like a forum.
