sidebar in all pages

[jgas]

Hi, i want to add the sidebar on the showthread and the forumdisplay templates, i think i should add the <xen:sidebar> code, but inside which templates?

thanks!

The templates are forum_view and thread_view but the stat's stuff isn't exposed for all views.

I don't know why, I tried everything, but I can't display the sidebar OUTSIDE the forum_view .. look at the image please



DO you have any advice? even little? it's more than 2 hours that i'm trying to add this sidebar!!

 

[Paul B]

The sidebar is showing in that screenshot.

 

[jgas]

Yes it's showing but look at the border of the forum view that is displaying around everything. How can I put the sidebar outside that border?
The look you see in the screenshot isn't professional at all

 

[Paul B]

Are you using the Flexile theme?
I don't have that installed so I'm not familiar with the templates.

You would be better off asking in the dedicated thread for that style.

Ok thanks!

Brogan, where within the templates would we add the "<xen:sidebar>" code?

Will that take care of the 'recent activity' page as well?

 

[Paul B]

You can add it anywhere but my suggestion would be before the main content div.

The Recent Activity page already has a sidebar so I'm not sure what you mean.

Why do you fine folks not use xfrocks's Widget Framework?

Thanks.

Yes, what I should've said is, how do I add certain blocks to the 'recent activity' page.

Ah, edit the news_feed_page_global template and add your content between the xen:sidebar tags.
