I did something similar at my site(screamingpc.com). I'm sure there was an easier way to do it, but I ended up editing the template files. The way I did it the first time, I'd have to edit each file when I want to make a change.

I am currently in the middle of changing it over so I can make just one change to a file and it would apply to every one of them.

Hey,
I'd also like a solution to this, as at the moment I can't do link exchanges because I have nowhere to place them

mmm, not played with phpBB for a while. Off to rig it up and have a look. If I can figure it out I'll get back to you.

The software on the link you gave is overkill for what I need. I only need small blocks like on: http://www.talkfreelance.com

Check here - http://www.phpforumtalk.com/index.php

I'm having some difficulty getting to look like the rest of the forum, but the basics are in and only edited the overall_header.tpl and overall_footer.tpl

Glad to see you got it working...I'm actually kind of shocked there is no sidebar out there for phpBB...It seems like something that would be so desired.

We've had this come up before, and I kind of got halfway there...you can see what I mean by going here (Ignore the snowflakes in the phpBB demo, lol)...

Maybe this is another thing that we should create a little tutorial for, eh?

@Ryan - Would be a good idea but not got the time now. If I can I'll right a few through the week for left, right and both.

@purawebs - I saw what you were trying to do with the stuff on the left. I've installed that skin on the link above and done that, the header & footer files have been posted there. Watch if you've changed them for other stuff, that's just the bare skin with a leftbar.
