Hey guys i would like to have my ( whats going on) part of my forum full width of the page, I have looked around but not alot around on this matter - would anyone know the code and where to put it? im also using blocks on the right side.

Thanks all.
 
In your FORUMHOME template find this bit of code:

HTML: 
    <vb:if condition="$show['sidebar']">
        </div>
    </div>

    <div id="sidebar_container" class="<vb:if condition="$show['sidebarposition'] == 'left'">sidebarleft</vb:if><vb:if condition="$close_sidebar"> sidebar_closed</vb:if>">
        <a id="sidebar_button_link" href="#">
            <vb:if condition="$show['sidebarposition'] == 'left'">
            <img id="sidebar_button" src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/<vb:if condition="$close_sidebar">tab-expanded-left.png<vb:else />tab-collapsed-left.png</vb:if>" alt="" />
            <vb:else />
            <img id="sidebar_button" src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/<vb:if condition="$close_sidebar">tab-expanded.png<vb:else />tab-collapsed.png</vb:if>" alt="" />
            </vb:if>
        </a>
        <ul id="sidebar" <vb:if condition="$close_sidebar">class="sidebar_hidden"</vb:if> >
            {vb:raw sidebar}
        </ul>
    </div>
    </vb:if>

Change it to this:
HTML: 
    <vb:comment><vb:if condition="$show['sidebar']">
        </div>
    </div>

    <div id="sidebar_container" class="<vb:if condition="$show['sidebarposition'] == 'left'">sidebarleft</vb:if><vb:if condition="$close_sidebar"> sidebar_closed</vb:if>">
        <a id="sidebar_button_link" href="#">
            <vb:if condition="$show['sidebarposition'] == 'left'">
            <img id="sidebar_button" src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/<vb:if condition="$close_sidebar">tab-expanded-left.png<vb:else />tab-collapsed-left.png</vb:if>" alt="" />
            <vb:else />
            <img id="sidebar_button" src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/<vb:if condition="$close_sidebar">tab-expanded.png<vb:else />tab-collapsed.png</vb:if>" alt="" />
            </vb:if>
        </a>
        <ul id="sidebar" <vb:if condition="$close_sidebar">class="sidebar_hidden"</vb:if> >
            {vb:raw sidebar}
        </ul>
    </div>
    </vb:if></vb:comment>

Then add the code right below this part, <!-- /main --> so it looks like this:
HTML: 
    <!-- /main -->

    <vb:if condition="$show['sidebar']">
        </div>
    </div>

    <div id="sidebar_container" class="<vb:if condition="$show['sidebarposition'] == 'left'">sidebarleft</vb:if><vb:if condition="$close_sidebar"> sidebar_closed</vb:if>">
        <a id="sidebar_button_link" href="#">
            <vb:if condition="$show['sidebarposition'] == 'left'">
            <img id="sidebar_button" src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/<vb:if condition="$close_sidebar">tab-expanded-left.png<vb:else />tab-collapsed-left.png</vb:if>" alt="" />
            <vb:else />
            <img id="sidebar_button" src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/<vb:if condition="$close_sidebar">tab-expanded.png<vb:else />tab-collapsed.png</vb:if>" alt="" />
            </vb:if>
        </a>
        <ul id="sidebar" <vb:if condition="$close_sidebar">class="sidebar_hidden"</vb:if> >
            {vb:raw sidebar}
        </ul>
    </div>
    </vb:if>

I am pretty sure that is what I did.
 
I can't get this to work, I think maybe my FORUMHOME template is different?

Yeah DCU. But I think i can handle it, was just hoping you saw something just offhand that might be different from the default template.

Reason i ask is i keep getting:

HTML: 
The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:
Invalid Tag Nesting
This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.
