How do I create additional (more than 10) custom islands?

Thank you!

Bryan

Unfortunately that's not an option right now but hopefully will be explored in a future version -- I need it myself! wink

I am working on a solution for my forum to have the sidebar fully customizable per user, but that doesn't include >10 custom islands unfortunately.

I could have sworn I read somewhere that additional custom islands could be created....bummer! Maybe it is better this way as I won't be bombarding my users with lots of content...a naturally enforced limitation on content....hmmm..

As you can see I am making use of all of my custom islands...

I had to double-up on some islands to get all the content in. :/

you can 'cheat' and double / triple your custom islands, by

doing something like

----

content island x
{$tbclose}
{$tbopen}
island y title (use rightheader or left)
content island y
{$tbclose}
{$tbopen}
island z title (use rightheader or left)
content island z

---

that does 3 in 1. one limitation is that every time you do island x, you always get y and z wink

jgeoff,

I never even thought about putting two island's content in one island. That is brilliant. I'll have to start using that!

Sirdude,

I don't really know enough code to understand what you are saying.

Unfortunately this doesn't help if you need the custom island to be an ad placed between the 1st & 2nd postings.

Any news as to whether this may soon be included?
