I've not used custom pages, so I'm not 100% sure how this would work, but try putting this somewhere in the header..

<div id="RT-parent" style="position: absolute; $[plugin.settings.left_or_right]: 0px; display: none;">
   <div id="RT-Master" class="container">
       <div class="RTTitle-Bar" id="announcement-title">Announcements</div>
       <div class="RTCell" id="announcements-cell"></div>
       <div class="rtcell-spacer"></div>
       <div class="RTTitle-Bar" id="recent-threads-title">Recent Threads</div>
       <div class="RTCell" id="recent-threads-cell"></div>
   </div>
</div>

The plugin 'should' pick it up and add the threads.

Todge I'm having some trouble with the spacing and the borders with the plug-in. here's a screenshot:



the box that says "Find Us" and the box the 2 blank boxes below are using the Sidebar Redux plug-in and the Recent Threads is of course yours. do you see how the the first 3 boxes have a white border around them? how do i get that border around the "Recent Threads" box as well (the border is around the "Recent Threads" container but not the recent threads gray box itself)?

also as i mentioned before, the spacing is off and i have no idea how to fix it. help please ;__;

Thank you..

In the setting tab in the plugin, add this to the CSS..

#recent-threads-cell
{
   border: 4px solid white;
   border-top: 0px;
}

#recent-threads-title, #recent-threads-cell
{
   position: relative;
   top: 15px;
}

And change the '15px;' number to a value that better suits your forum.

That worked perfectly! Ahh, you're amazing. thank you!

EDIT: Todge I have another question. is there a way to center the title of the bar ("Recent Threads") without moving the alignment of the other boards i have on the left side ("General" "The Studio" "The Sandlot")?

EDIT 2: i have another question, sorry. i'm trying to use the "Extra Cell" box but it's doing what the Recent Threads box did before, meaning it just sticks to the box above it with no spacing. i've tried fooling around with the coding but it only made things worse or made the box disappear. 

EDIT 3: and also how do you change the color of the links.

Um well yes it worked but does this mean I have to manually add it to every page? That would be truly painful I have a lot.

Try putting the code in the Global FOOTER instead.

Replace this, which I gave you before..

#recent-threads-title, #recent-threads-cell
{
position: relative;
top: 15px;
}

with this..

#recent-threads-title, #recent-threads-cell, #extra-title, #extra-cell
{
   position: relative;
   top: 15px;
}
#recent-threads-title, #extra-title
{
   text-align: center;
}
#recent-threads-cell a
{
   color: red;
}

HI, I already install the plugin but nothing appear in my forum. Any setting i need to do before?

[pika1995]

sigh it's me again. but this time my problem isn't that big - i just need to know how to resize the text within the boxes. and by text i mean "by" or using another example the text in the extra cell box.

Add this to the CSS..

#recent-threads-cell, #extra-cell
{
   font-size: 20px;
}
