I am assisting another admin in setting up his website.

He was using a different plugin (to remain anonymous) that had stat boxes at the bottom of the webpage.

The problem was that this plugin caused many issues and incompatibilities with PHP 7.2 version. He finally decided to ditch that plugin.

So, I convinced him to try out Advance Side Boxes, he loves it... works great with his theme with no issues.

Except...

He wants the boxes to show up on the bottom instead of the side.

Well, I told him... 'Ahem, this plugin has the words 'Side Boxes' in it... yea, he got that... but he wanted the boxes on the bottom like the other anonymous plugin did.

I told him that I will ask... the author of Advanced Side Boxes.

Well...

Is it possible, using ASB, to put boxes at the bottom of the webpage or not?

It isn't, I'm sorry.

That's what I thought. At least you confirmed this.

I will pass that info to the other admin.

was wondering if you can add avatar to recent posts box

also, the timestamp on recent posts, is there anyway that i can change to Yesterday, 09:22 PM instead of just 09:22 PM ? or if it's a new post, Less than 1 minute ago for example

Wildcard, could you please help? I have the latest version installed but I can't edit the sideboxes. Everytime I try to edit them or uninstall the plugin via ACP I get the following error:

Sorry you are having problems.

To get past that error, go into phpMyAdmin and create the missing table.

Can you tell me the steps to reproduce the issue? Is this a fresh install or did it happen on upgrade, etc...

It happened when we removed the files trying to find the source for another error. When I placed the files back I can activate it but not edit or uninstall from the ACP.

I’ll try phpmyadmin. Never used it before but I’m sure I can figure it out.

I tried to use a custom box by creating a facebook like box but it didn't work.

"<div class="layout-right">


<div class="fb-like-box" data-href="https://www.facebook.com/**********" data-width="208" data-colorscheme="light" data-show-faces="true" data-header="true" data-stream="false" data-show-border="true"></div>
"

I have just omitted my page name by "**" How should I use it to get it work?

First of all, go to https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plu...nfigurator

You will need to define how your like button should look and behave. Then, click the "Get Code" button. In the popup window, you will see two different pieces of HTML:

1. Put this code into your headerinclude template (ACP -> Templates & Style -> Templates -> [Your Theme] then go to Ungrouped Templates and find headerinclude. Insert the code in the top box just below the {$stylesheets} placeholder.

2. Put the code in the second box in the custom box, wrapped in a table row and a table cell:

EXAMPLE ONLY:

	<tr>
		<td class="trow1">
			<div class="fb-like" data-href="https://facebook.com/****/" data-width="200" data-layout="standard" data-action="like" data-size="small" data-show-faces="true" data-share="false"></div>
		</td>
	</tr>

You should get something like this:

You should get something like this:

Thanks, it worked.

Now, how can I add adsense or similar type of ad codes in the custom boxes?
