[SOLVED] Forumotion Forums and Widgets

[SLGrayValued Member]

I was wondering if there is a way to add more then 15 (max) forum widgets? I know that you can combine widgets.

Wait, there's a limit to how many widgets you can have in a column, right ? If so, I never knew that !

You might be able to combine them, OR if you can add widgets into another column you can use JavaScript to combine the left AND right columns..

There is a limit.  When you reach the limit and add the 16th widget, the last widget in the column is removed.

You can always combine your custom widgets into one. Set the table type to no, and here's an example:

Code:

<div class="module">
<div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span>
<div class="h3">Title</div>       
        YOUR CONTENT HERE
<span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span>
</div></div>
<!--HERE ENTERS THE SPACE--><div style="height:2px"></div>
<div class="module">
<div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span>
<div class="h3">Title</div>       
        YOUR CONTENT HERE
<span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span>
</div></div>
<div style="height:2px"></div>

Hmm.. I'm gonna try to play around with this tomorrow or Monday, so I can get a better idea of what to do. It's pretty late for me right now, since I got up at the crack of dawn.

I'll get back to you on this soon, though.

@SLGray I think I figured out a solution ; Activate the left column and add some widgets to it, then go to JS codes managent and create a new script in all the pages with this content :

Code:

$(function() {
  var column = [
    document.getElementById('left'),
    document.getElementById('right')
  ];

  if (column[0] && column[1]) {
    column[1].appendChild(column[0]);
  }
});

That'll drop the left column into the right column making it appear as one. It'd give you a max of 30 widgets.

I will try it later.

It works on my forums.

Cool I ought to think about making that a little trick.
