Sidebar Redux

[scifikriss]

Ok is there a way to do this but in the footer? ie say 3 columns along the bottom? Or should I ask for it as a plugin in the request section?

Why does it show different for me when I lay one on top of the other? Oh well. I'll see if I can get the to alter the widths in their sidebars. Hopefully I an squeeze enough out to accommodate the you tube video. Thanks Brian.

I can't comment on that without visual reference. I don't know what you mean.

I'm not seeing that on your forum, so... *shrug* Can't offer advice on how to remove something I can't see in the first place.

Do what? Move the recent threads? Move all of your sidebars as a whole?

Oh, I see. You were having the same problem because of the code I offered adding a background.

I updated the post with one that shouldn't break. Look here: support.proboards.com/post/6007980

Well make a sidebar redux that is actually a footer redux... Like the columns at the bottom of this board... just makes it easier to to add and take away things when all you have to do is just change some of the coding in the container... I know I am lazy...

You need to do everything in that post, not just change the CSS.

I would recommend seeking another plugin for that. It would be a lot quicker than trying to reverse engineer this one.

[scifikriss]

Thought so... was just a thought..

[mugiwara303]

thank you Brian this plugin should be integrated on next versions of proboards! also you have some useful things on you website!

[scifikriss]

Ok I have changed everything now and it looks perfect!

Thanks for all your help... <3

Is there anyway to use proboards html tags within the sidebar?
e.i. $[current_user.avatar_medium]

it doesn't seem like it works. I was hoping there would be a way that it could?

It's not possible to use layout template variables within a plugin as they only exist within the layout templates themselves. You'd need to make a hidden <div> element in your Forum Wrapper template and move that into the sidebar using Javascript if you wanted to generate something using layout template variables.

[RileyCasper]

I feel like I'm being a burden, but how does one go about doing that Brian.

I'm not familiar with javascript, only more so with css and html.

[Brian]

Place this anywhere in Themes > Layout Templates > Forum Wrapper (preferably after the <body> tag and before the $[header] variable), substituting the text in green with the layout template HTML you wish to use.

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
if($('#move-wrapper-html').length)
$('#wrapper-html').show().appendTo('#move-wrapper-html');
});
</script>
<div id="wrapper-html" style="display: none;">
Your template HTML here
</div>

Then add this in your sidebar wherever you'd like it to be.

<div id="move-wrapper-html"></div>
