Sidebar questions

[mrchasez]

On my current theme, i have a custom sidebar "box".

Inside of a template called vote i have this
"<div class="section">
<div class="secondaryContent">
<h3>Online / Vote</h3>
HTML CODE HERE
</div>"

I have a new style, i add "vote" as a template but the block don't show up.
Which makes me think i have to add a line of code in another template, i just don't know which one.

Have you included the vote template in the style you want it to appear in?

Yes

Support is really lacking recently ;/

Do you have the template "vote" in the new style? If you create a custom template in your old style, it will not be carried to the new style unless the new style is a child style of the old one.

I agree with James and xfrocks. Basically make sure the relevant templates exist and are correct in your new style. If you continue to have problems then I can take a look if you give me admin access.

How is that if I may ask? Because you did not receive a reply for an hour or so?

No because there used to be really good answers almost immediately and for my recent threads they don't for a day or two.
I have seen them not get a reply at all for more then a day.

I have this code:
<div class="section">
<div class="secondaryContent">
<h3>Online / Vote</h3>
HTML CODE HERE
</div>"

In the style, in a template named "Vote"

Do i have to add like <xen:Vote> to another Template for it to appear??

I assume the template contains the ending </div> tag, because the code you posted is missing one.

You can see an example of a xen:include for a sidebar block in this template:

Admin CP -> Appearance -> Templates -> forum_list

Since your vote block is in a separate template you need to "xen:include" it in the sidebar in the content template for the page.

forum_list is the index page, unless you have some other index page in place. You can find the content template in the page source:

I can't find which template it is!

Edit: Is it EWRporta_Porta?

I am working on a different style right now, i have it setup on my old style but not the new one.
I got the html working on http://kingscrafters.com/index.php?forum/
However i want it on the hompage, which is created by xenporta

Everything inside of Xenporta_portal is made by "blocks" so adding an "xen:include" isn't possible!

Do you know if there are any Xenporta html blocks?

Do you know if there are any Xenporta html blocks?

Except you probably want the RawHyperText.xml file.

There was no HTML block download?

There is. It's called RawHyperText.xml.

There is. It's called RawHyperText.xml.

Right now @ http://kingscrafters.com
I have the "Vote" thing on the portal and on the forums page without any blocks.
Do you know how to add a template to each page like that? (So i can remove it too)

Probably xen:include it inside of the xen:sidebar in the root template:
