As I mentioned before, a right column will be added by default to many of the pages. I understand that this might look weird to many of you. In an effort to accommodate everyone I made every attempt to make it so you can configure the system so it's just like it was before (if that's what you want). Here was my first comment on this in late August:
One configuration you might want to try is disabling the top ad, leaving the right column enabled and changing the number of recent threads to 16. This will give you a nice way to surf through the site without having to go back to the portal page to see what's going on.
I know the right column will feel awkward at first but if you give it a chance you might actually like it.
Thanks for your understanding and patience during this remodeling process.
Kind Regards,
Andy
There was a brief moment when I was working on the site and the right column appeared before it was ready. I quickly got it hidden again while I worked on it but I think a few members quickly opted out. I posted that they system was going to need to be reset and that's where we are right now.The look and feel of the site will be updated and a right column will be added. Since we know that our members get very used to things I wanted you all to know that you will be able to switch back to the current look and feel as well as turn off the right column.
In a few minutes I will reset the system and the right column will be live. One new feature that is useful is having the the recent threads in the right column. I have also added the option to disable the ad at the top of the right column as well. You can set these options in the UserCP >> Options section (link).Sorry about that, I was working on the logic to make the right hand column disappear. It's fixed now. Please do not set your option yet, the whole system will have to be reset before going live.
