RoadRAGEN · 01-03-2007, 10:41 PM

Has this been updated to work with 3.6.*

*Brandon Sheley* · 01-04-2007, 03:08 AM

yup, peterska has a version at vb.org

hiven · 03-09-2007, 01:57 PM

peterska's one isnt the same, it puts it next to the navbar not below it and its for all pages. Will this code work on vb3.6?

ishansoni · 07-31-2007, 04:13 AM

very wierd hack :S why dont u make xml n let us make as much we wanna

blkdrgn · 12-06-2007, 08:24 PM

Awsome add. I used it for my own information, ads, and moved other forum info there, but I was having trouble with the extra table. Nice hack.

**Note to other users**

Just delete the information between the first and last part of the table tags and you can put in whatever you want.
