How do I......Knowledge base

[hostxls]

Hello,

 

Here is Vincent,

 

a quick short question.

 

How do i place information in the left and right column in the Knowledge base.

 

Check the image

 

Like to hear from you,

 

Thanks

Vincent,

 

on the left, by using a sidebar hook... or, as a last resort, by editing the sidebar.tpl template...

on the right, I don't think that's a separate space there, it's just that the kb articles are truncated to 100 characters... so I would imagine if you changed the truncation value to '200' in the template, then the article detail would reach over to the right-hand side.

Hello,

 

Do I use the ClientAreaPrimarySidebar code?

 

What I wanna do is place an image in the left sidebar

where you've drawn your box on the left, it would be more suitable to use ClientAreaSecondarySidebar hook...

...or if you want to add it using Smarty in a template - edit footer.tpl and change...

 

            <div class="col-md-3 pull-md-left sidebar">
               {include file="$template/includes/sidebar.tpl" sidebar=$secondarySidebar}
           </div>

to...

            <div class="col-md-3 pull-md-left sidebar">
               {include file="$template/includes/sidebar.tpl" sidebar=$secondarySidebar}
                   {if $filename eq 'announcements'}<img src="https://i.imgur.com/a1ke1vK.png">{/if}
           </div>

whichever you feel most comfortable doing...

Hi,

 

To add the same in knowledge base this works fine for me

 

<div class="col-md-3 pull-md-left sidebar">

{include file="$template/includes/sidebar.tpl" sidebar=$secondarySidebar}

{if $filename eq 'announcements'}<img src="https://hostxls.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Support-logo.png">{/if}

{if $filename eq 'knowledgebase'}<img src="https://hostxls.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Support-logo.png">{/if}

</div>

 

 

But what if I want to add more than one image?

How do I do that in both tpl's announcements and knowledge base.

if they're both using the same image, you could combine them into one line...

 

{if $filename eq 'announcements' or $filename eq 'knowledgebase'}<img src="https://hostxls.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Support-logo.png">{/if}

That is smart

[brian!]

you mean..

 

{if $filename eq 'announcements' or $filename eq 'knowledgebase'}<img src="https://hostxls.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Support-logo.png"><br><img src="https://hostxls.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Support-logo.png">{/if}

you'd probably want to use css instead of a break return, but you get the idea !

[hostxls]

So you are telling me that <br> is the key

 

Why I didn't think about that.

 

Thanks again
