Category: Sidebar

Before you start I suggest that you add every CSS addition to the template called EXTRA.css

Everything you want to add before the forum statistics you'll need to add/edit in the template called sidebar_online_users.
Everything you want to add after the forum statistics you need to add/edit in the template calledforum_list AFTER the following line:

<!-- end block: forum_stats -->

Removing the Visitor Panel

If you want to remove the visitor panel at the forum home, you can it by changing the following code in the template called forum_list.

<xen:sidebar>

to

<xen:sidebar>
<xen:container var="$noVisitorPanel">1</xen:container>

Alternate Sidebar

This is actually a remake of the "Online Users" sidebar panel, it just has some extra features.
To install it, simply replace all the code in sidebar_online_users with the one provided in the topic of the modification.

RSS Feed Block in Sidebar

As the title says, it adds an RSS Feed block in the sidebar which you can specify.
Check the topic for installation instructions because that's a very good tutorial on how to install it.

Add Icons to Sidebar

If you want little icons before your header titles there, you can use this modification to do this.
Personally I reject this add-on because it's extra loading time. It's nice already without icons.

Get Rid of the "Staff Online Now" box.

In sidebar_online_users, remove the code provided in the topic.

Add Twitter in Sidebar

This adds a Twitter Block to the Sidebar. Simply follow the rules in the topic.

Add a Custom Block

Want to add something simple? Follow that topic.
Don't forget to submit your code if you're done so we can all enjoy it!

"Staff Online Now" Block without the names and user titles of the staff.

If you got 10 staff members online at once, your sidebar will be huge! This modification will only show the avatars of the staff members so it will only be 3 lines instead of 10.

"Staff Online Now" into "Members Online Now"

If you don't want 2 different blocks for Staff and Members, this brings them together.
