Hi, If you visit this link http://igahq.ig.funpic.de/modules.php?name=Forums
You can see that in the forums module no blocks are being displayed on the sides of the forums, how can i change this?
Thanks

Thankyou, And how can i get the blocks on the right to show so that the forums are pushed into the center.
I've tried blocks(right);

I saw the page about editing $index but it doesn't specify which file to look in.

Thanks

You'll want to add a line into the modules/Forums/index.php file

Code:

$index = 1;

Code:

define('INDEX_FILE',1);

for Patched files

Are you sure that isn't:

define('INDEX_FILE', true);

i guess it was working, sorry about that. but i wasn't seeing it cause the right blocks were down below the footer. my footer.html file is very simple.

Code:

</td>
</table>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="7">

<tr>
<td><table>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#000000"><div align="center">$footer_message</div></td>
</tr>
</table></td>
</tr>
</table></td>
</tr>
</table></td>
</tr>
</table></td>
</tr>
</table>

if you want to see what i'm talking about go to

not sure where to look now. i'm running the BlackW theme from

1 or true.. it doesn't matter. As long as the variable is defined as something. "1" is shorter to type than "true" Smile

either worked, yes you are correct. what about the blocks showing beneath the forum, and above the footer? any ideas on that?

Time to do some HTML work.. looks like the tables in your forums template aren't matching. You'd have to check the tags in overall_header.tpl and overall_footer.tpl

now the right blocks are up next to the header. i tried pasting the code in here for you to see, but it keeps telling me that i'm using html code that's not allowed. **shrugs**
