I've got it running but for some reason am not getting the who's online box. The only change I made was to delete the Latest Threads because it was showing threads from an Admin only forum which I do not want my regular members to see. All I did though was remove that from the template. The Who's Online was not showing up before I made that change. Any thoughts???
Thanks!!!

ETA: I figured out my problem. I had the "who's online" turned off in the 'portal' turned it back on and all is perfect!!!

Use the search template by name more often. It's a lot quicker and will display all instances of the template for all themes. I also use the search too. IMHO regular mybb admins don't use these enough. They are fast and simple.

Same with the search on the settings page, a lot of people don't even know it's there and that's a great tool.

The sidebox is great, Labrocca, I love it. I went to add it to MyBBThemes and no one else liked it.. LOL
