Sidebar Redux

[Teg]

Is there a way I can add {if} statements to the content in the side bar? Like If the user is staff display this link, if not display this? It's not working for me. If it's not possible, is there a way to make it possible? Or do I just have to code a whole sidebar from scratch?

Is there a way to make them left side/right side collapsible vs just top collapsible?

Only templates and plugin HTML source code support if statements. In the case of this plugin and others that are injecting HTML into the page via a form element in their settings that HTML is being added as-is and does not go through the forum's templating system.

The source code of the plugin could probably be modified to allow a staff-only container, but the settings hash is visible in the source of the page at all times so the link would still be able to be found by anyone who knows how.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Do you mean collapsing the entire left or right sidebar in one click instead of each individual container?

If so, that would be possible but you would need to modify the source code of the plugin to achieve it.

I meant to be able to collapse it to the right or to the left, instead of up and down like it currently does. Some browsers use a smaller screen, and the sidebars squish the forum too much. It was a request that a member had inquired about.

Have you tried the Peekaboo SideTables?

To Brian: My apologies if I am out of line here.
