How to have 2 right block columns :: Archived

I want to have 3 bloks on my site too, i.e., left block, center block, and right block. I followed the instruction above but some parts of it is missing that I couldn't understand. I've been searching hard to find the solution to my problem. And my problem is "how to create 3 blocks". Can you explain me step by step? I'm a newbie just learning cpg nuke.

I checked the theme.php and footer.php and compare to what you said. They seem to be ok but the right block doesn't appear. How can I enable the right block?

Regards.

No you are not.

Can you explain the full usage like:

- keep blocks on the right + add blocks in the footer
- no blocks on the right + add blocks in the footer

Because using  2 times you just duplicate the whole list.

You could call

PHP:

themesidebox($title, $content, $custom_id);

within your theme.php

I will give a example

PHP:

Then in your footer.html use this only once

PHP:

You can even do way more advanced things, but lets understand this first

3 blocks is normal:
left blocks -- center blocks -- right blocks

What this thread is about is displaying both left and right blocks on the right or displaying a total of 4 columns.
Yours is a pretty standard problem. With DF 9.1.1 you need to check 2 things:
Go into Admin - Modules and make sure that all modules you want to display right blocks in shows "Both" in the blocks column.
Then go into Admin - Blocks and make sure the blocks you want displayed on the right are checked off in the list of modules.
