Hi, PF .

You could probably modify the homepage-only code found in the official support thread to achieve that.

Change the number in red to the numerical ID of the thread you want the sidebar visible on (this is the number that comes after /thread/ in its URL).

Hi, Violette.

You have a random if statement opening on line 39 of Themes > Layout Templates > Board.

Removing that line should make it show properly.

That one unfortunately has a dependency that I can't change in the library version of the plugin. The author is meant to go where the signature goes, but I can't make the code check for where the signature usually is because not every user has a signature since they're optional (versus the mini-profile which is always there), so I had to tell the code to target the parent.

This is the line that controls that:


Changing .foot to .content should fix it on that theme, but if you use any other themes it might break on those.

As for viewing the NPC's profile, your NPC doesn't have any profile information to display so nothing shows there. The only fields that will ever show on that page are Birthday, Gender, and Location.

The HTML that produces the NPC's profile is controlled by the Profile HTML tab of the plugin's settings. The same goes for the mini-profile if you want to change that to match your actual mini-profiles.

It's already built to work that way. I try to make plugins like this work with as little dependencies as possible, but just barely enough was removed in your theme to make the mini-profiles unable to be replaced.

The reason the mini-profiles aren't working on your theme is because the .left-panel element where they reside in the default theme no longer exists. In Plugins > Build > NPC Profiles you only have to change a single line in the Javascript section of the Components tab to fix this.

This can be fixed by changing this:
To this:


Edit: This change is present in 1.2.4 which is now available in the plugin library.

This should only happen if your browser window isn't tall enough to accommodate the entire menu between the bottom of the button and the bottom of the window. If the menu doesn't have enough room to fit it moves to the top of the button instead, as is the case for most menus on the forum.

You could use CSS to tell it to add a scrollbar once it meets a certain height.

Alternatively, in the newest version of the plugin there's an option to categorize your NPCs into submenus if you want to shorten the list that way.

Gene Hunt:

I can't seem to duplicate this. Every dropdown shows the full list of NPCs regardless of what action I'm performing on the forum.
