Left Sidebar on all pages. · **Released**: 01-05-2004

Provides a left, right or both sidebars on all pages.

That option is here:
admincp / styles & templates / all styles options

then browse down to "Sizes and Dimensions" part. it's the 9th option there.

But setting it to auto didn't fix the show thread header error for me.
It still looks like this (only on the threadview thought! forumhome and forumview are fine)

I kinda wanna change the place of the menu.
I would like it to be BELOW the navbar, so that the navbar uses 100% like before and the menu is top alligned with the first forum.

Like the pic i made in the attachment.

Also i would like (request request

) to have it shown all ALL but ONLY ALL pages the navbar is showing.
That means it won't show on reg pages, redirect screens, erro messages, empty searches, like that navbar doesn't show on those pages either, but it will show on all other pages.
Is that diff to accomplish?

oh, almost forgot...

Ok, i solved my own request in the previous post

instead of adding this to the end of the header template:

PHP Code:


			
<!-- Sidebar -->

<table width="$stylevar[tablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="7" border="0">

    <tr>

        <td style="width:150px" valign="top">$sidebar</td>

        <td valign="top">

<!-- Update -->

<table width="$stylevar[tablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">

<tr>

        <td style="width:100%">

<!-- /Update -->

<!-- /Sidebar -->

I added this to the end of the navbar template:

PHP Code:


			
<!-- Sidebar -->

<table width="$stylevar[tablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">

    <tr>

        <td style="width:150px" valign="top">$sidebar</td>

        <td style="width:10px" valign="top"> </td>

        <td valign="top">

<!-- Update -->

<table width="$stylevar[tablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">

<tr>

        <td style="width:100%">

<!-- /Update -->

<!-- /Sidebar -->

(I basically changed the cellspacing to 0 to align it with the navbar, and since that removed all space between the menu and the right forums i added a 10 pixel colomn between them)

Works great this way. It now shows for all pages except login/forbidden/redirect or other message screens

But i still have the thread view misallignment i posted 2 pots above, so if someone can help me out there, pls do

ok

in your postbit template, replace $spacer_open with

PHP Code:


			
<!-- open content container -->

<if condition="$show['old_explorer']">

    <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" align="center"><tr><td class="page" style="padding:0px 0px 0px 0px">

<else />

    <div align="center">

        <div class="page" style="width:$stylevar[outerdivwidth]; text-align:$stylevar[left]">

            <div style="padding:0px 0px 0px 0px">



</if>

I don't know if modifying the $spacer_open template would have any knock-on effects elsewhere, so this just changes the div style padding to all zeroes instead of using the style values.

It's neither graceful nor elegant, but it works for me.

I have this working fine, but is there anyway to prevent it from showing on Showthread?

Ash

BarBeQue · #**115** 03-30-2004, 09:11 PM

I was wondering if you got it to work under the nav bar... I already have it installed on mine to go on the left side... but I don't like it in the showthread, it's all off.

Well I just put the code in my FORUMHOME template, sidebar only shows on my forum index page now.

Hey BBQ, I moved mine under the navbar too, looks a whole lot better there. My sig has a link to my forum. Think it's only a matter of time before we have a side blocks system from vBindex or something.

BarBeQue · #**118** 03-31-2004, 04:39 AM

ashley, use the fix that pete suggested above
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=110

That fixed the alligning on my showthread fine

Action-N, where did you put yours?
Cause i duno hopw you want it, but atm for you it only shows on forumhome.
I put mine in the navbar template so it shows on ALL pages (except message display pages such as redirecting, no permission and such.

Action-N · #**119** 03-31-2004, 05:24 AM

I did put it in FORUMHOME template after $navbar and before $footer. Didn't think it looked right on showthread, but I'm trying it again under navbar template. Maybe it'll be better if I add more stuff in it.

I've been uninstalling vbIndex an installing vbAdvance. I just checked an it even shows on the index page. Have to see, maybe can get vbadvance menus to work with this side bar hack. That'd be cool.

jluerken · #**120** 03-31-2004, 05:40 AM

The hack is working fine but I have one question.

I added the vbAdvanced Portal to my page and now the sidebar is also displayed on the portal page.
I only want the sidebar to be shown on forumhome and not within a forum or on the portal page.
Dark_Wizard do you have a solution for this also?
