Left Sidebar on Translucency?

Post by BeateNetworks »

Hi Everyone!

I am interested in adding a left hand sidebar to Translucency. Does anyone know what I would need to do to make this happen?

Thank you,
Allison

Hi!

Yes, you need to edit the index.tpl template file and then create a new HTML Div container where the new left sidebar should go to. Inside there you move the code call

Code: Select all

{serendipity_printSidebar side="left"}
so that all plugins shifted to the left in serendipity will also appear on the left hand.

Then you need to properly style the HTML DIV container via CSS to make it look/appear right.

Best regards,
Garvin
