please help, i was opening my board tomorrow Angry

I'm willing to give ftp/forum access to whoever can fix this! =(
wheres the sidebox from?
got it from this website, mybb!

http://mods.mybboard.net/view/side-boxes-21

It is just doing this on the index.php....

but im guessing its in the database to set the width to this? how do i fix =(
Can you post the code of your "index" template here? May be i can help.
You just have a width attribute around {$forums} in the index template. First remove the code for the sidebox, set the width setting to 100%, and you'll be good to go.
<html>
<head>
<title>{$mybb->settings['bbname']}</title>
{$headerinclude}
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
lang.no_new_posts = "{$lang->no_new_posts}";
lang.click_mark_read = "{$lang->click_mark_read}";
// -->
</script>
</head>
<body>
{$header}
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr>
<td width="100%" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0">
<tr>
<td width="100%" valign="top">{$forums}</td>
</td>


{$boardstats}
{$shoutbox}

<dl class="forum_legend smalltext">
<dt><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/on.gif" alt="{$lang->new_posts}" title="{$lang->new_posts}" style="vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px;" /></dt>
<dd>{$lang->new_posts}</dd>

<dt><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/off.gif" alt="{$lang->no_new_posts}" title="{$lang->no_new_posts}" style="vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px;" /></dt>
<dd>{$lang->no_new_posts}</dd>

<dt><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/offlock.gif" alt="{$lang->forum_locked}" title="{$lang->forum_locked}" style="vertical-align: middle;" /></dt>
<dd>{$lang->forum_locked}</dd>
</dl>
<br style="clear: both" />
{$footer}
</body>
</html>
bump,

then i saved that, went back in it and it is this

<html>
<head>
<title>{$mybb->settings['bbname']}</title>
{$headerinclude}
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
lang.no_new_posts = "{$lang->no_new_posts}";
lang.click_mark_read = "{$lang->click_mark_read}";
// -->
</script>
</head>
<body>
{$header}
{$forums}
{$boardstats}

<dl class="forum_legend smalltext">
<dt><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/on.gif" alt="{$lang->new_posts}" title="{$lang->new_posts}" style="vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px;" /></dt>
<dd>{$lang->new_posts}</dd>

<dt><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/off.gif" alt="{$lang->no_new_posts}" title="{$lang->no_new_posts}" style="vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px;" /></dt>
<dd>{$lang->no_new_posts}</dd>

<dt><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/offlock.gif" alt="{$lang->forum_locked}" title="{$lang->forum_locked}" style="vertical-align: middle;" /></dt>
<dd>{$lang->forum_locked}</dd>
</dl>
<br style="clear: both" />
{$footer}
</body>
</html>
Okay! Activate the plugin in your ACP and replace the code between {$header} and {$boardstats} with this code

<table width="100%"  border="0">  
   <tr>    
     <td width="75%" valign="top">{$forums}</td>   
     <td width="25%" valign="top">{$sb_welcome}{$sb_search}{$sb_stats}{$sb_latestthreads}{$sb_additional}</td>
   </tr>
</table>

I hope it will help.
