Side-Bar Shoutbox + Forum Specific On/offs

[Tohsaka Rin]

After checking around there haven't really been any requests about this.

---

Side-Bar Navigation/Shout Box - FILLED
Code Plugin: 

[Update]
- It works now, with the border removed as well.

---

Forum Specific On/Offs - FILLED
- Haven't heard a peep about this. I know that you can change the standard on/offs through the style area, but so far there is no way to give each forum their own custom on/offs...

[Update]
Code Plugin: [Different On/Offs for different boards]
- Board-selection box used for setting which boards you want to use the On/Offs set for them are listed in a random order. Greatly confusing.

Again, thank you!

Regarding the on/off icons, a week or two ago I tested a plugin for someone that does just what you want. I'll shoot them a PM now and see if they're any closer to releasing it. =]

Sounds good. Thank you.

For the on off icons one. Try this.

Different On/Off Icons for Different Boards

If you find any issues let me know, and I'll fix them as soon as I can.

cheers shorty, wasn't sure if you'd posted it or not. =]

[Tohsaka Rin]

Alright, I tested it out over on [my V5 board] and it does work, the only thing is that when you go to select which forums you want the icons to be displayed in, the order of those categories and forums is very randomized.

At first I thought "hey, maybe they are alphabetical" or something, but upon further inspection various categories were merely organized very sporadically.

Example:
Actual Database:

• Official
• Creation
• Mission Board
  
• Miyama
• Shinto
• Misaki
• Other Locations
  
• OOC
  

List version in plugin:

• Other Locations
  
• Creation
• Official
• Mission Board
  
• Miyama
• OOC
• Misaki

- All of the forums listed underneath these categories are actually in the correct order. The categories, themselves, are not.

Additional Thoughts: I am happy that you are able to upload one version of the ON/OFF's and place multiple forums into it; rather than having to list single ON/OFF's for individual forums. Not to mention I am thrilled that it works for sub-sub forums! I can allow a lot more customization in the future when I re-make these icons later!

Could it be bases on board id? Pure speculation though, til shorty replies.

Na, it couldn't be that, the ID's of those boards are the same as the name... Official>official, Creation>creation, Mission Board>missions, Miyama>miyama...so on and so forth...

I thought maybe it had to do with the order of the ID's of which was created first, or the id's themselves but upon double-checking it really couldn't be that.

I meant the numerical id that appears in the url, but I'm sure shorty knows either way =]

[Tohsaka Rin]

Yeah, hopefully.

Any idea how to make the Proboards sidebar move the nagivation, news feed and category over when it is made? It is overlapping it all and that is one large issue I am trying to fix now, before addressing that we need to be able to set sizes for the cat-header.

[pawl]

To be honest, I've barely touched the plugins compared to most, so I'll let them that know more talk on that one. Think that's about the limit of what I can do for you, I'm afraid. =]

[Tohsaka Rin]

That's fine. I posted it in their appropriate sections as well just to hopefully get more attention drawn to it.

[Shorty]

I'm glad it works, as for how the boards are listed, that's not me, that's proboards that determines that. I'm sorry, but I personally can't fix it. Again. Sorry

[Tohsaka Rin]

Na that is fine, I can totally deal with it. Now I just have to get these other parts done with the weird padding around banners and the side-bar overlaying all over everything wrong.

I am tickled that it works the way that it does so far!

[Tohsaka Rin]

Bump!

Trying to move the shout-box to the side navigation. It isn't working.
