How do I add a Mini Calendar and Poll to Forum Sidebar

[Scalemotorcars]

Im still new to Suite but I get the basic ideal of how it works, Ive been using VBA for years. However Im a little confused as to why the forum uses blocks in the sidebar rather then widgets like in the CMS.

So I see how to add a widget in CMS and theres plenty of options but only a few for forums. How do I add a widget into a forum sidebar?

I would like to add the Polls widget and the Calendar. Thanks.... :up:

from cms for that but you should be able to get a API from google calenders ..not sure but Ive heard you can get aps for that, polls yes in fact i think polls are a built in add on for forum sideblaocks in forums and moderators/forum blocks

Once again thanks HarleyParts. Ill just goof with some code.

Odd you would think all sidebars would use the same system but.........

As for the poll its not in my Forums Blocks. Do I need to upload it from somewhere?

I don't :>
but google has this API that should be able to be Incorporated into sidebar using the HTML/php Format option http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/

but its hard to work with, but it does a lot of stuff, events and stuff
