Provided by Eminem Forum

WHAT DOES THIS DO?

This will help you in achieving a 4colum footer with social icons & you can customize it to match your needs.

Screen Shot:

Lets get it started

Backup your footer template before making any changes. This was tested on vbulletin 3.8.x Default skin & it worked fine.

Go to your Admin CP->>>Your Style>>>Edit Templates>>>footer

Remove the following code first.

Code:

<div align="center">
    <div class="smallfont" align="center">
    <!-- Do not remove this copyright notice -->
    $vbphrase[powered_by_vbulletin]
    <!-- Do not remove this copyright notice -->
    </div>

    <div class="smallfont" align="center">
    <!-- Do not remove cronimage or your scheduled tasks will cease to function -->
    $cronimage
    <!-- Do not remove cronimage or your scheduled tasks will cease to function -->

    $vboptions[copyrighttext]
    </div>
</div>

</form>

Now, find

Code:

$ad_location[ad_footer_end]

Above that add...

Code:

Well done, Great mod mate, keep up the good job! I saw this for vB 4.x was waiting for you to do this for vB3.8!

Example Image:

After installing it, some of the links cant stay fit, and looks like they are set to be in the middle of everything else.. I its maybe because my theme is custom! I am going to make a few changes later, and hopefully it will work. I will get back and click on the Installed button if it does..

GREAT JOB

GREAT JOB

Like i said, i tested this on default skin & it worked fine.

Try reducing the width, hopefully it will fix the problem.

.col4 { float: left; margin-left: 56px; width: 262px; }

there are some huge monitors or small monitor, is there any way to adjust it automatically with the size of the screens?
