UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V5 Mod Questions Could it be done ?

I was just wondering if its possible to add a sidebar like on ubbdev " look to your right "

I'd like to add last post and calender, if so what would I edit ?

Sure, you would edit your styles - header/footer like normal. Is that what you mean?

Click the "View" and "Source" and theres the codes lol...

thanks dude
How do you add latest post and news to these boxes?

Thanks

Latest Posts I believe is using the JS option for Content Islands. News you'd have to have a JS output or your server needs to have the ability for includes. If you're using the PHP Accellerator you can use a simple PHP include (which I enjoy)...

[code][/code]Mainly do it with a blank page (output as plain text) in the design that you'd like it to be seen.

Its not too difficult if I recall, but if you've seen my sites you'll notice that I don't use the sidebar so I'm not 100% sure.

could someone help me with adding the "latest post/calender" to this please..
I cannot seem to add the cells and stuff

For the latest posts you'd have to make a content island that outputs it.

For the Calendar it has an option for includes or whatnot I believe, but I could be wrong, I don't use it too much.

All you'd have to do is use an includes (may it be PHP or whatever) to have it be called to your sidebar's.

I'm lost...
I mean the HTML, code, perl, etc, etc...
I just want to add a couple of cells "boxes" and I'll fill 'em in later

Any pointers on how to add 'em ?

Thanks

you can add cells in html, I showed you how to on AIM!

an example table of 4 cells by 4 rows:

If you stated EXACTLY what you needed (how many rows/colums) I'll give you the html for it to insert in your right sidebar.

ok, I see
But where does this go ?? header/footer?

In the sidebar code :x... Where it sais "Sidebar Content".
