Sidebar code

[adminprue]

I am not good at coding, can you send me a code for a nice static sidebar. I have a freeforums.net site . Thank you!

[Kami]

Have you tried the sidebar plugin?

I'm looking for a code that I could copy paste into my global header. I cannot download these.

Well, you don't need to download them. If you log into your forum and visit the plugin library directly from your admin panel, you should be able to install directly to the forum without the need to download anything.

Alternatively here's something that you can use in your layout templates, but that would be on a per-theme basis.

There aren't any side table codes for your headers and footers anymore. If you want someone to write one from scratch for you instead of either of the options I provided, then I'll bow out and let someone else give it whirl.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe he is looking for a tutorial on how to create a sidebar using code, not by downloading a plugin.


"The Coding Help board is exclusively for general coding help, not for modifications having to do with themes, templates, or plugins. If you have any questions involving those three categories please post them in the appropriate board."

adminprue are you still looking for code or has Kama helped you?

I am AWARE what is being asked. However the OP has stated they are not familiar with coding, which is why I proposed the plugin as an alternative (requires no coding knowledge) and then later the template modification (requires some coding knowledge). IF they still want a code to copy and paste (note: they dont want HELP to WRITE a code) into their headers and footers, I have already said I would let someone else assist them.

Thank you for your attempts to help but in this case this was misguided.

What was misguided?

@smithj, what was misguided was your interpretation of this board and how it works. And please don't quote the board description, because I wrote it. Just for clarification what it was saying is if you have an issue with an existing plugin then you need to go to the support thread for that plugin and not here. Simple. Specific template requests and theme requests go in their respective boards as well. Since general coding will overlap these areas we are not going to slap anyone's hand if they post in the wrong board.

Kami gave a spot on answer to the OP. They specifically stated they were not good at coding and to send them a code. How you interpreted that as them asking for a tutorial is beyond me.

Okay, I'm sorry.
