rzaidi 0 Report post Posted August 25, 2011 Hello, I just bought Platform Pro with bbpress... I would like to put a Facebook Fan Box on the right sidebar of the forum (where the forumimages currently are)... What file do I need to edit? or is there a way to do this in the admin panel? regards, raza Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob 547 Report post Posted August 25, 2011 I believe you need a plugin for Facebook Fan Box. Here's the latest. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-facebook-fan-box-widget-easy/ Install, activate and drag/drop into your sidebar on the Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets section.

Rob 547 Report post Posted August 25, 2011 You can use the following: Go to Dashboard > PlatformPro > Template Setup > then the drop down for Site Footer. In the box, drag over the Full Width Sidebar to the above or below Footer Sidebars (5 column). Save it. Now go to Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets. With your plugin activated, you should see it on the list of available options. Drag it to the Full Width Sidebar. Edit it accordingly. However, I'm not sure this is the best way to do it. I believe the Facebook Fan Box sets images in a grid and it would be better in one of your other sidebars, such as the Primary or Secondary (if you have 2). In the footer, it may look very odd.
