The Ultimate Sidebar Management Thread

Posted on 03/04/2003 7:15:40 AM PST by I Am Not A Mod

Edited on 03/04/2003 7:24:00 AM PST by Admin Moderator. [history]

Did you know that any Free Republic topic can be a sidebar for you? Did you know you can remove any sidebar that you currently have? Did you know you can control how many posts show up in each sidebar, and what order the sidebars show up on your latest posts page?

I have compiled this thread to help make the task of managing your sidebars easier.

The following table shows all the Free Republic topics that are currently configured. For any of them, you can click to topic name to see what the actual topic is, in case the one-word name doesn't make that obvious. For each topic I have included a link that will either add the topic as a sidebar or remove it as a sidebar for your account.

Topic Name: Click the topic to browse the topic and see what it is about Subscribe: The link in this column subscribes you to the topic to the left. By subscribing it becomes a sidebar. Unsubscribe: The link in this column unsubscribes you from the topic to the left. It no longer will be a sidebar for you.

Once you have the sidebars you want chosen, then you can set how many posts for each and what order the sidebars are displayed. The My Subscriptions link brings up a page where you can change these options. For any sidebar, the value you put in the MAX column is the maximum number of articles which will show up in the sidebar. The ORDER column is used to designate the order you want them to appear. The sidebar that has the lowest number will be displayed first-- so the easiest way to set this up is to just go and put a 1 in the ORDER field for the sidebar you want to go on top, then a 2 in the one you want second, and so on. If you give the same ORDER number for two or more sidebars, then whichever one has been most recently posted to will come first.

A little known about feature is the Review page, which can be quite handy after you have set up all your sidebars. Try it out after you have done all the rest.

Those are set up as something different than topics (I forget the exact term).

John eventually is going to migrate them over to topics but he has not done so yet. When he does then they would be handled just like these. Thanks, AM

It is way past time for an official FR FAQ file to be developed and a link to it posted in the upper LH corner along with "Topics", "Search", etc.

This post would be a very good piece to include in it. There have been other posts in recent weeks with regards to vanities, etc. Let's get going on it!
