Recently Updated Threads Sidebar (0.4.3)

[jonboycubs]

Todge So I got the recently updated threads cell to move to top, all I did is put this in ID sidebarr-right-top. The problem I am having now is the extra cell I created in sidebar plugin is now above the recenly updated threads cell and I only need one of them.

Thanks

Threads/posts should start appearing as they are posted. Unfortunately there is no way for the plugin to include posts/threads created BEFORE the plugin was installed and activated.

I understand that it will take new posts and that is why I created some for testing purposes but still nothing showing.

If I may ask also how do you bold the text, and is it possible to alter color?

Thank you

Colors and text styles can be changed, but let's get the pkugin working before we start messing around with the look of it.

Assuming the link you posted is correct, I can see the Recent Threads list, can you still not see them?

Do you mean the 'Trade Central' cell? And if so, what do you want done with it?

Yes

I was under the impression that if you put sidebarr-right into the redux plugin and create a cell then the recent threads or your plugin should now be in that redux cell I just created. Instead however I get what you now see. I am starting to think I was misunderstanding the instructions though.

Ahh...

No, if you put sidebarr-right into the Recently Updated Threads plugin, it will appear in the Sidebar, but it will create it's own cells.

If you want it to appear in a cell that you create, you will need to give your cell a unique ID, and then add that ID into the RUTS plugin.

I have been trying this over and over and for some reason I can not get it to work. I went to the Sidebar Redux plugin and entered sandberg into the ID. Then I went to the RUTS plugin and put sandberg into the container ID under the settings tab. Saved that but it still has the RUTS cell at top with the cell I am trying to put it in above it.

Yep, you will as the title cell is added to the top of the Recent Threads list within the plugin. You can remove it by adding this to the plugins' CSS Styling in the Settings tab..

#recent-threads-title { display: none; }
But in doing so, you will lose the link that allows you to edit the threads list.

Or you can retain the editability by adding this instead.

#recent-threads-title > h2 { display: none; }
#recent-threads-title { min-height: 0px; }

Hello Todge.

Apart from providing football stories and football 'games', I have decided, due to the coronavirus, to include news from around the world including technology and science, among other categories.

At the moment, I've added an extra cell to Recent Threads but as you can see, you have to click the 'News from around the world' link before you can go to the board.

Is there a way for me to have the extra cell to look like the 'Recent Threads' box above it?

Thank you.

Unfortunately, I cannot see your extra cell.

Could you please post or PM me an image so I can see what you mean?

Thanks.

Hi Todge.

I've added an extra cell now but I haven't added any content.
What I want is to be able to add news stories to the extra cell so that members can read it and reply. I know how to add content using html and css but I dont know how to add it to the forum so that members can reply if they want to.

Thank you.

[gb9454]

Sorry Todge, ignore the above. I realize that the World News board does what I want but I want it to appear exactly like Recent Threads so that all the content shows and can be scrolled.

Thank you.

Hello Todge.
I have created an extra cell under Recently Updated Threads. I would like members to reply to and create their own threads in the cell which is entitled 'News from around the world'. Is that possible?

Thank you.

I'm afraid not, at least not how I understand it. To do this would require the use of another key, and as a key can only hold a finite number of bites, you would run out of space incredibly quickly, as all the 'posts' would need to be stored in the same key.

Can you not create a board to do as you are asking and simply leave a link in that cell linking directly to that board? Or would that not work?

This plugin doesn't seem to be working properly for me. I've had this on my forum previously. I recently imported the updated version and now it only seems to show one thread even though there have been multiple threads created and updated recently.

Please help!!!!
