Sidebar on the forums permanent?

[Jeewdew]

Hey PH.

I was wondering if there could be a way of keeping the sidebar (right side) open when browsing the forums.
I have a high res. on my screen (1920x1200) and therefor the forum itself is very wide - the "cut" the sidebare makes helps me with those long sentences.

Any help or way you could implant this?

Thanks.

just use the little arrows at the top just below the main header on either side, and it'll stay open (this is what I have going, no problems)

Making the right sidebar permanently visible (like the left one) is a global setting, so if I do it, it will show this way for everyone. Per user configuration is not possible. As Necrolis said, use the arrow buttons.

[Jeewdew]

Using the arrow buttons only makes it visible pr. side load - clicking any link, thread or anything what so ever in the forums makes it disappear - can't you like enable some cookies for the setting?

Like, no, I can't. As I said, per user configuration is not possible.

[Jeewdew]

Hmm.
Sounds wierd (I know a bit php myself).
Anyways.
Thanks for the quick response.

I am using high resolution too, but the screen is so wide that it does not acutally matter if the sidebar is open/closed
90% of sentences usually end in the middle of screen

You may zoom-in the whole page if you need. I think the browsers support it and remember the whole page

I could do so Mirecek - but I accatly like a widepage for a change - but the minor change that the sidebar make is just what I need personal. =)

I'm glad I can switch them on/off for 2 reasons:
1. No net @ home so I print a lot of stuff to pdf so i have it fo reference.

2. I'm using a mobile phone mostly for the net & being able to hide the bars is a great help.

Cheers.
