Installing Sidebar/column Trouble!!!

Man oh Man. I have having a difficult time installing a sidebar/column on my forum. I am running 3.0.12 and everything on Vb.org is for older version and they just don’t seem to work on mine. Besides upgrading to 3.5.3, any suggestions? I have been working on it for 4 hours now. HELP!!!!

I am looking to install one like that is here on AF.

This one is the way to go

Although I am still uncertain where mine is, so I will just upload mine.

Attached is the help file and the plugin, although I am unsure about compatibility issues

Well the instructions I supplied to you are for the sidebar to go on the left hand side, so just substitute them for these

Quote:
At the end of your header template, add
-------------------------------

<!-- Right Column Code -->
<<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<!-- End Left Column Code -->

----------------

At the beginning of your footer template, add:
-----------------

<!-- Right Column Code -->
</td>
<td width="160" valign="top" align="left">$rightcolumn</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr>
</table>
<!-- End Left Column Code -->
-----------------
Then add them to the templates, and upload your plugin.
