I'm not sure if this has been asked before, and I apologize if that's the case. But is there a way to recently updated threads to the side bar redux? I have the recently updated threads side bar, but it's kind of lacking in terms of functionality, plus, I'd like to keep everything on the same side.

The Recently Updated Threads Sidebar is the only way to add that information to my sidebar plugin. Sorry.

There should be instructions in that plugin's support thread to properly place it within the Sidebar Redux plugin so everything is on the same side.

Alrighty, thank you!

How do I space the lines out ?



This is the code I used :-

<b><font color="0000cd">USA :</font></b> <a href="http://rotrwarzone.boards.net/user/66"><b><font color="0000cd">John Miller</font></b></a>
<b><font color="ff0000">China :</font></b> <a href="http://rotrwarzone.boards.net/user/40"><b><font color="ff0000">Xingmin Wu</font></b></a>
<b><font color="008000">GLA :</font></b> <a href="http://rotrwarzone.boards.net/user/45"><b><font color="008000">Omar Al Ghazi</font></b></a>
<b><font color="68228b">RF :</font></b> <a href="http://rotrwarzone.boards.net/user/38"><b><font color="68228b">Andrey Voronov</font></b></a>
<b><font color="ff7b00">ECA :</font></b> <a href="http://rotrwarzone.boards.net/user/49"><b><font color="ff7b00">Jurgen Adler</font></b></a>
<b><font color="ce960b">SAP :</font></b> <a href="http://rotrwarzone.boards.net/user/69"><b><font color="ce960b">El Renegade</font></b></a>

I thought adding spaces in the code after each name would space it out, but it didn't work.

Add a <br /> to the end of each of your lines. Omit adding to the last line if you don't want a blank line after it. Grabbing your first line, have it look like this:

<b><font color="0000cd">USA :</font></b> <a href="http://rotrwarzone.boards.net/user/66"><b><font color="0000cd">John Miller</font></b></a><br />

This is what I used, and it worked. Thanks.

Glad to be of help, rohan!

Is there a way I can add a live stream to the side bar? picarto, specifically.



This is what I've done, so people can click on the link and be taken directly to the stream, but is there a way to add like, a small version of the stream instead of this? I feel like this is a huge stretch, but thought I'd ask anyways.

If the site that provides the stream comes with an embed code in its share options you can place that in your sidebar.

I wouldn't be able to manually construct anything like that for you. That's going to be entirely dependent on whether or not they provide it.

Okay, I've checked the site, and they're still working on it picarto.tv/live/faq.php

Thank you for answering!

Another question, while I'm at it, how to I make the text blink?

Depends on what you mean, but Javascript is probably going to be the solution there.

[Jim Jamer]

I want to be able to make the word "ONLINE" blink from the default color to green. So that it brings more attention.

This is for when I start a live stream, I can make the text on the side bar blink.

Definitely Javascript then.

You'll want to either apply inline CSS to the element that contains your text to change its text color or add/remove a class from it and define that class elsewhere using CSS. That's not something I'm going to do in this thread, though. This is mostly for if you need help with the actual functionality of the plugin rather than the content you place inside of it.

I put the Shoutbox in my sidebar. But, it's doing a weird thing where when I refresh the scroll bar jumps to the middle of the shoutbox.

Also, random question, how do I get my mini-profiles to look like yours Brian?

When you add the shoutbox to the sidebar the height of the container changes, so what was originally considered the bottom is no longer the bottom which leaves the scrollbar more towards the middle. Adding this to your global header will remedy that.

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
// Scroll to bottom of shoutbox messages
$('.shoutbox_messages').animate({"scrollTop": $('.shoutbox_messages')[0].scrollHeight}, "slow");
});
</script>

The mini-profile change is done via a plugin that I actually just submitted to the library yesterday. If it's not approved today it should be approved sometime this week.

Thank you, sir. Much appreciated. Works beautifully.
