Integrating Left Forum column problem

[Joey805]

I am working on integrating my forum by putting a left column on it using the instructions provided for Integrating Other vB Pages & Hacks and all seems to work fine except on my showthread.php

The only thing I did was ad the two lines of code to the top of the page, just like this:

<?php
define('VBA_PORTAL', true);
define('VBA_PAGE', 'include');

For some reason the posts have moved over to the right about an inch away from the Navigation Menu. I need to move it back over to the left, next to the navigation box. It only does this on showthread.php. All other pages work correctly. I have provided screen shots of it on index.php working correctly and also showthread.php which has the extra space.

Can someone tell me how to fix this?

Thanks,

Joey

I had that exact problem. To fix it you need to change the Spacer Size in your Default Style (or the style you're using) Sizes and Dimensions box. It should be the second option.

I had to change mine to 0 to fix the issue. I think the default was 15. I've not noticed anything else messing up due to this change so I'm happy with the simple solution :D

Yep! That fixed it! Change it to zero and she looks beautiful!

Thanks a bunch!

Alternately, (if you want to keep your spacing in other places) you can edit your postbit template to remove the $space_open and $spacer_close variables.
