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.


Important information regarding support - 20/04/06
Due to time constraints and the amount of things that are being planned for future modifications, priority support will now be provided here. Support provided in this thread will be on an as and when basis.

I have just specified a width of 800px on my test site with this installed and the resulting site is attached in the image.

If you are not getting this, then it is due to modifications to your forumhome template and without a copy of your template to debug, I cannot help further.

Replied, the problem lies with your google ads. They will need to be a narrower format to stop breaking your width.

Amazing dude, that was fast! - Im suprised it was the ads because i thought they were lower down then the site panel

One question tottaly of topic - Do you know how to seperate each catogary and forums, from another catogary and forums, like here on vb.org?

thanks again!

This mod for 3.0.x should work on 3.5.x as the templates it asks for haven;t changed that much
