Here's how you fix it:

Message Area Width (pixels)
(This value allows you to specify the width in pixels of the text box used for all message posting in vBulletin) -> set this to AUTO

I'd really like to have the sidebar on just the forum home and not each subsequent page. I guess what I want is TheAnt's hack, but it isn't currently available. Can anyone tell me when this will become available again? Thanks so much.

And good job with your hack, Dark Wizard. :squareeyed:

Nice mod- installed it tonight. Was the question of how to place the column on the right ever addressed?

Just change the footer piece as follows:

From:

<!-- Sidebar -->
<!-- Update -->
		</td>
	</tr>
</table>
<!-- /Update -->
		</td>
	</tr>
</table>
<!-- /Sidebar -->

To:

<!-- Sidebar -->
<!-- Update -->
		</td>
	</tr>
</table>
<!-- /Update -->
		</td>
		<td style="width:150px" valign="top">$rightsidebar</td>
	</tr>
</table>
<!-- /Sidebar -->

Then you must create another template as you did before and call it rightsidebar and edit global.php as follows:

Find:

eval('$sidebar = "' . fetch_template('sidebar') . '";');

Add below:

eval('$rightsidebar = "' . fetch_template('rightsidebar') . '";');

Then edit your template and add your content....

Excellent! But now I have two sidebars- should I get rid of the sidebar template to remedy it?

[ImportPassion]

yes, and the 2 updates u did for it in header and footer templates

Thanks! BTW, clicked install- you're awesome!

Excellent hack, though, I might suggest you make 3 installation files. One to install it on the left, one for the right, and one for both.

I found it very difficult in your instructions to just install it on the right.

I was testing it here: http://www.seo-talk.com

I wanted just the right sidebar, but it seemed to have added a left one also...

Any ideas?
