This is probably a simple newbie question, but how can I make a custom island in the middle row for UBB.Threads? I want to place a chart, or graphic, in the middle between a couple of category islands, but cannot seem to figure out how.

In the middle column, or row? For the portal page or somewhere else?

Sorry, I meant in the middle COLUMN. I would use this on either the portal page, or on the main page for non-logged in users (i.e. forum list).

Gizmo,
I read through the template areas, and I didn't see the post that you mention. It could be my lack of understanding, but which posts mentions how to put a custom island in the middle column?
Thanks.

Gizmo,
Can't seem to make this work, but I certainly can be doing something wrong. Couple of questions:
1. Does this work for v7.2.2 of UBB.Threads?
2. What is "WOL"?
Thx!

As SD said, it will work with any version of threads (as the code you tae from the external link will be from your version) and WOL is Who's Online.

I followed the example that Gizmo gave me, no luck. I got the external use paths from the portal layout, and put them in the crfm.tpl file after the "{if $introtitle}" line, but don't see the Who's Online (just trying this for an example. Here's an excerpt (the first 30 lines or so) of the cfrm.tpl file with the additional code: {* Script Version 7.2.2 *}
{if $introtitle}
{$tbopen}
<tr>
<td class="tdheader">
{$introtitle}
<?php
if (!defined('UBB_MAIN_PROGRAM')) define('UBB_MAIN_PROGRAM',1);
$style_side="";$tbopen="";$tbclose="";
echo "<table width=\"100%\">";
include("/home/content/p/e/n/pennyprofilers/html/forum/languages/english/portal_islands.php");
include("/home/content/p/e/n/pennyprofilers/html/forum/languages/english/generic.php");
include("/home/content/p/e/n/pennyprofilers/html/forum/cache/online_now.php");
echo "</table>";
?>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt-1">
{$introbody}
</td>
</tr>
{$tbclose}
{/if}
{section name="cats" loop=$catrow}
{$tbopen}
<thead>What am I doing incorrectly?

You can't use PHP tags in smarty, instead change your to {/php}

Thanks, makes sense. However, I tried this and it didn't seem to change anything, i.e., the WoL didn't appear at the top of the forum list as I would expect. Here's the current code:
{* Script Version 7.2.2 *}
{if $introtitle}
{php}
if (!defined('UBB_MAIN_PROGRAM')) define('UBB_MAIN_PROGRAM',1);
$style_side="";$tbopen="";$tbclose="";
echo "<table width=\"100%\">";
include("/home/content/p/e/n/pennyprofilers/html/forum/languages/english/portal_islands.php");
include("/home/content/p/e/n/pennyprofilers/html/forum/languages/english/generic.php");
include("/home/content/p/e/n/pennyprofilers/html/forum/cache/online_now.php");
echo "</table>";
{/php}
{$tbopen}
<tr>
<td class="tdheader">
{$introtitle}
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt-1">
{$introbody}
</td>
</tr>
{$tbclose}
{/if}
{section name="cats" loop=$catrow}
{$tbopen}
Anything else I'm missing?

Move it to this -
{* Script Version 7.2.2 *}
{if $introtitle}
{$tbopen}
<tr>
<td class="tdheader">
{$introtitle}
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt-1">
{$introbody}
</td>
</tr>
{$tbclose}
{/if}
{php}
if (!defined('UBB_MAIN_PROGRAM')) define('UBB_MAIN_PROGRAM',1);
$style_side="";$tbopen="";$tbclose="";
echo "<table width=\"100%\">";
include("/home/content/p/e/n/pennyprofilers/html/forum/languages/english/portal_islands.php");
include("/home/content/p/e/n/pennyprofilers/html/forum/languages/english/generic.php");
include("/home/content/p/e/n/pennyprofilers/html/forum/cache/online_now.php");
echo "</table>";
{/php}
{section name="cats" loop=$catrow}
{$tbopen}
That's how mine works.

Sorry for not getting around to posting; basically what was happening was that you where saying for the code to only apply when the intro was enabled. Thanks to Night for posting a fix for mishter

I used your code to place addon chat in a middle island, it worked like a charm except anytime my page refreshes it logs me out of addon chat.
any ideas on what causes that?

Would this work in 7.4.2 (or 7.4.1) I have tried it several ways now with a custom island and it didn't work at all. EDIT got it to work, but lost my whole right sidebar. LOL what am I doing wrong should I set to be say 80% instead so that it doesn't take out the sidebars?
