We already support a sidebar on every page. It's just a case of using a <xen:sidebar> tag in your template and filling it with whatever you like. We currently use it on the forum list, member list and conversation view.

sounds good. I'm assuming there's lots of other cool things like this in the template system

Will this include pure HTML, or just the template tags?

 

[welshstew]

what can you include in the sidebar?

 

[Derek Ivey]

Will the sidebar include a button to show/hide it? If not, it would atleast be a very easy modification...

While I currently allow users to disable the sidebar, I foresee a day where I'll be putting advertising in it, and removing the ability for users to close it. I prefer advertising in the sidebar, rather than putting it in the middle of a thread.

The common need for MPU and skyscraper ads is the reason why I developed a multi-purpose, easy to style sidebar for XenForo.

Sweet. Much appreciated.

 

[Kier]

You're welcome

I personally hate all side bars.. Too much clutter. I wish the one here on the index page was gone.. But that's me.

Is that WordPress widget-like?

Personally I have no use for a left sidebar, but for right to left languages I imagine they would need one. Is there a provision for swapping sides in the backend? I'm pretty sure it'd be a more or less trivial task to do it via CSS (or even jQuery), but I wondered if it's going to be a setting to help the less adept.
