Widgets System

[psychobunny]

Yeah each theme can define their own widget areas, so you could literally have a sidebar bonanza on every page if you wanted

I'll make sure to add the aforementioned sidebar widget areas to both Vanilla and Lavender before 0.4.x hits

Updated our community site with the latest widget code. Check out the sidebars!

Nice work!

Currently on my theme there is no templates in the widget menu. So i am unable to disable the MOTD. The theme is currently running off vanilla so the changes should appear in my theme?
Had to revert back to Vanilla to for the time being.

Edit
Ok so i have managed to get rid of the MOTD. I think i managed this by disabling it in Vanilla and then switching themes. Is there any modifications i need to make to my theme to get the templates part of the widget system to display?

So what happened to the sidebar on this forum? All that shows is a white space with widgets.html.

@planner clear your cache

For my part, on forever restartall it asked for node app --upgrade

and I got this error : PasteBin

I managed to bypass it by uninstalling all plugins with `npm uninstall' but maybe others can have this too.

Can't tell wich plugin caused this.

But once in place, I can tell, it rocks!

Apparently, it's already happened and solved

Yup. Have a look at the changes I made to cerulean to update it for the widget system: https://github.com/designcreateplay/nodebb-theme-cerulean/commit/50e49a9da5a89484fa8001bbda2e613b69f18e86

Assuming you aren't running custom templates that's all you have to do. If you are, then have a look at the commits done for Lavender. I'll try and get a dev guide for the widget system up today

2 psychobunny committed to designcreateplay/nodebb-theme-cerulean

updating cerulean to latest widget system

@psychobunny Ah great!

No template edits yet but I was considering it for the future though. I'll have to keep up to date with your themes
Thanks.
