Hello Todge

How would i move this into my current sidebar ?

You will need a separate code to move it, the plugin, as it is, will not put it into the sidebar by default.

Todge is this the one I already have installed or another one?

Never mind, stupid question. I'm messing with it now.

Edit: Todge, this is all I see. :/

Also, is it possible to have just the thread title instead of also having who posted it?  It kinda makes it a bit long.

That would be because of the width of your forum. The sidebar attempts to position itself to the side of your forum, no matter what the width, and as your forum covers most of the width of your screen it has little choice but to disappear off the edge. You will need to reduce the width to give it room.

seems this was missing in several responses, so I will do it.

THANK YOU TODGE FOR WORKING ON THIS

Why, thank you Wormo, most appreciated.

Thanks for this code Todge - is there any way you'd think of assigning it an ID (its the only thing I can think of suggesting) so I could place it in the sidebar I currently use on the site I'm planning on using it on easier?

My apologies, yes .. thank you Todge for your hard work on this particular plug-in. I'm going to continue trying to figure this out. I'm sure something good will come of it.

Is this something you are able to change ?

It already has an ID, RT-parent.

Nope, but I can give you a code that should move it..

Try putting this in your Global or Main Footer, depending on where your side tables are displayed..

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
document.getElementById('sidebarr-right-td').appendChild(document.getElementById('RT-parent'));
// -->
</script>

What I'm meaning is a div that could be used to display it in that area, unless that code could work, let me play with it a bit -

Todge what I mean is zombiesrun.boards.net/

Where it says 'Recent Threads should be displayed here' is where I want it

[M³]

^ That's kinda what I was saying ... ugh, oh well, I'm really confused on this .. but, definitely like what it's suppose to do.

If you create a <div> tag, with an ID of your choosing, and put it on your forum where you'd like the sidebar to be displayed, you can then use the code I posted above with a small change to move it. Just change sidebarr-right-td to your chosen ID. In your case rethreads.

[Boy_Wonder]

I've done that Todge - it doesn't seem to have worked -

The div tag of choice:

           <div id="rethreads"></div>



<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
document.getElementById('rethreads').appendChild(document.getElementById('RT-parent'));
// -->
</script>


The script

(note the sidebars I'm doing there don't have one set 'class' they're a list of IDs that generally draw their content from other plugins)

[Todge]

Strange.. Let's try jQuery then..


<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
$(document).ready(function(){
$($('#Announcements')).appendTo($('#rethreads'))
});
// -->
</script>

Man, I really appreciate your response .. but, I'd have a better shot at winning the lotto.  I just don't have the knowledge that others do ... even to run a trial and error approach.  Is this something that you could go into my board and embed ... then, I could see what was done?  I'm basically looking to have the side-bar 'be' the 'recent threads' .. much like Hawkeye, I think it is.   I seriously need to take a class.  lol

That works!

[Mr. Undecided]

Yes, thank you Todge.

So I'm still having issues with it.... I am scrolled all the way to the right, and the forum I made smaller....also, is there a way to get the normal header bar instead of the tiny one it has? Like in the old plugin......
