This plugin makes adding, editing and managing forum sideboxes much easier. It is even extensible so that other plugins can add a new box type for admin to choose from and developers can create single file modules that automatically integrate (without using hooks).
The plugin builds from the original concept of altering templates from the cache but with quite a change in interface and internal design. Using a modular approach to adding, removing and editing sideboxes makes the process much more simple-- and it is also much more powerful as well.
Instead of one or two custom boxes, the admin can create as many sideboxes as desired, with custom content- on either side or both. The plugin creates a tab in the Configuration menu of ACP to house the sidebox management functions.
- Create an unlimited amount of side boxes
- Control which script(s) the side boxes display in
- Manage modules to add new side box types easily.
