Right (or left) side bar on forumhome

Desciption: This mod will add a right side bar (or left side bar) or divide the forum home into two columns. One with main forum info and additional ones for whatever info you want to add to. For my hack, the addtional column contains guest message, forum stats, user birthday, upcoming event and 1 custom cell.

Installation time: 5-10 mins
Template mod: 1
- FORUMHOME

Requested by exesko here


If you want to make your custom cell(s) collapsable, REPLACE:

<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="thead">
			Your custom cell.
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="alt1" width="100%"><div class="smallfont">Some text for your custom cell go here!</div></td>
	</tr>
</tbody>

WITH:

<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="thead">
			<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_events')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_events" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_events].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
			Your custom cell.
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="alt1" width="100%"><div class="smallfont">Some text for your custom cell go here!</div></td>
	</tr>
</tbody>

------
Click install if you use it.

which one you install on your board? right or left one?
make sure to check carefully whether your code is placed properly in those <if>...</if> conditions.
