Let me get things right, you want the login code to be into the side column hack? and you have added the code above to the template and its not working?

Alot of the times these things dont work is because they are not global variables, and have to be used on the forumhome template, i know that the whats going on box doesnt work anywhere else but forumhome, might be the same with the login

thanks whitemike i was about to freak out and turn into a cuss bucket.. neways how do i go about making a global variable and such ?

Edit: ive looked everywhere and couldnt find it anywhere....

havent really done that kinda work, but what seems like it *might* work is find the code in the php file for the login, then make a global_start plugin, and use the code their, havent tested, maybe someone else can confirm this, Nick where are you

Erm, so which side column hack are you using. If it's a global (one on all pages) then you definitely shouldn't have a problem and if it is just the forum home you shouldn't have a scope problem as the two templates are eval'd right next to each other.
