How to line up the vbseo likes counter on threads alongside the Relevant Replacements

[meeja]

The Likes box is under the Relevant replacements on my vb3 site, leaving a large gap of white space to the left of the counter.

Is there some way to life the box up so that it sits to the absolute right of the text?

Hello David,

You can add an HTML comment in your SHOWTHREAD template to place the "Likes Tree" in a custom place:

<!--VBSEO_LIKE_TREE->

My Relevant replacement could be the issue methinks.

<h2>[thread_title]</h2><p id="relevant_replacement">This is a discussion on <em>[thread_title]</em> within the <b>[forum_title]</b> forums, part of the [parent_forum_title] category on <b>[bb_title]</b>. [first_post_20_words]...</p>

I assume the p tags are pushing it down. How do (could) I change that and keep it all happy and retain the styles. DIVs?

Try making the #relevant_replacement css include a float: left;

It may need to be cleared afterwards.

Thanks Brian, I'm not much of a techie where this is concerned, is there any straight-forward way of doing this?

I can't any reference to relevant_replacement in the vbseo style.css file (or the other .css files) in the css folder under /vbseo - can you advise where I can find this?

Many thanks.

Dave

That class is generic. It's possible you never added ANY style/class to the additional style areas.

Should it be updated with the main style, or within vbseo.css then? I tried adding this (to see what would happen)

p.relevant_replacement {
font-size: 11px;
width: 640px;
margin-bottom: 2px;
float:left;
}

But nothing changed.

You should add it to the additional block at the bottom of main css in vb3.

i replied to your pm with a snippit.

I had a pretty decent web guy familiar with vb3 take a look at our site, and he's confirmed that <!--VBSEO_LIKE_TREE--> doesn't work right with the vb3 template, regardless of where <!--VBSEO_LIKE_TREE--> is put - the likes box goes in the exact same place and no amount of changing that will work.

Can I assume this just isn't going to work right for us in vb3, and we should wait for the vb4 upgrade before it will work properly?

The design guy needs to know where <!--VBSEO_LIKE_TREE--> is defined.

If you guys could help - it would really make a difference to us using this facility on our big-board.

Was the CSS changed/removed? The default css is an absolute positioned div. moving the comment but not adjusting the css will land it in the same spot every time.

[meeja]

The problem is that the Likes box code is inserted into the template at the same place regardless where the template tag is placed, it is simply ignored so the page source code looks the same every time. The div #vbseo-likes is inserted into the form #inlinemodform every time, we would like to insert it before that form tag.

[meeja]

Just wondering if we could have some help with that?
