I used to have sideboxes installed and working perfectly on my forum. However, I then removed them so I could do something to the forum. I have since re-installed them, but now the only boxes being shown are custom boxes (I don't know why). I am therefore trying to rewrite the original side boxes as custom boxes. Now, this is where I need help.

I have managed to get a box which links to a search for new posts and posts posted today, but I'm stuck for the rest. I'd be extremely grateful to anybody who can help.

Thanks in advance ;D

I think backup the costum boxes tempelate and fully reinstall the SideBoxes plugin ... have you activated for sure all of them ?

Yep. I've tried that too. No luck at all.

this is a part of my index, i have the sideboxes right and left from the forums. i have more boxes, in this code below are the standart sideboxes. i hope this help you

Code:

<table width="100%"  border="0">

  <tr>

    <td width="20%" valign="top">{$sb_search}{$sb_welcome}{$sb_stats}{$sb_additional}</td>

    <td width="60%" valign="top">{$forums}</td>

    <td width="20%" valign="top">{$sb_latestthreads}</td></tr></table>

original code (all boxes right):

Code:

<table width="100%"  border="0">

  <tr>    

<td width="80%" valign="top">{$forums}</td>

    <td width="20%" valign="top">{$sb_search}{$sb_welcome}{$sb_stats}{$sb_latestthreads}{$sb_additional}</td></tr></table>

This happened to me before

it jsut simply because you may have selected to show it on teh left, but the code renders it on the right and it conflicts with teh plugin, so it sonly shows custom HTML boxes, ( vice versa) Im not sure how to fix it though

you can edit it direct in the plugin file,...

anyway i didnt edit the plugin file,...just the templates and it works for me,...my index is a bit more complex, tabs, shoutbox, mini calendar,...
also my portal,...and its similar to my index,... boxes on the left and the right
