Hide/remove right hand sidebar?


Recommended Posts

Hey Steve,

Might there be a way to eliminate the right-hand sidebar, that for example, shows in the 02 General Discussion forum?  It lists Upcoming Events, Blog entries, etc.  I think something like it used to me on the 'home' site page, but I find it out of place within Forum pages...

If it can't be removed, moved or collapsed completely, then perhaps as a user preference setting?

 

Pardon if this clean-up and fine-tuning is part of your still-planned upgrade items! 

Regards,

Tom

Hi again Steve,

OK.  But perhaps consider maybe only applying those right-hand sidebars to the Home page, and the Discussions Listings page, and the like - but not inside any Discussion forum?

 

Some of the new features are pretty cool, tho' they take a bit of discovery.  I'm willing to assist with documenting some 'helpful tips' and explanations/tutorials on the update, if you'd like the help.  For example, I was a big user of the old 'middle hot-link circle' in the Discussion Forum listings (desktop, full-site' layout) that you could click on to get a short summary of the thread -- showing the original post, and last post, and which also let you mark that thread 'read'.  So I was disappointed to see it gone in the new version.  But I see you can get at least part of it now/again, with a long mouseover over a Thread Title - First/Last posts can be seen.

Along with Jim, I also miss the "full-version' post editor, with it's preview, and switches to show/drop sigs by post, show emoticons, etc.  But if the 'short-version' is now WYSIWYG, we should be fine, after some getting used to...

BTW, I know you're likely swamped, chasing the rest of your upgrade tasks and addressing issues, but I wanted you to know I ran into a problem withy the FAQ Store. I was trying to buy a sweatshirt (to help you cover costs a bit, and as a way of saying Thx), I got stuck trying to proceed to pay (errored out) - so that's not working yet. I suspect you're likely aware...

 

Best Regards,

Tom

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
