How to setup unique sidebars in clubs?

[Lucas Thompson]

How can I create a unique sidebar html block or widget for each sidebar?   I want to add unique content into the sidebar for each club.  Also, the current forum in my club doesn't have a sidebar at all.  How do I add the sidebar?  Thank you.

You can’t.

Is it possible with custom coding?  Is custom coding something that can be done with invision communities forums?

What do you mean?  Can you put a club in a page somehow so I can have a unique sidebar for each club?  

Thanks

Do you have the 'Pages' app?

If so, create a custom block (with a custom template) which detects the Club ID and then presents your unique content. Then drag the block in place in Clubs.

Thanks, but how do you make the custom block "detect the club id and then presents your unique content"?

This would be for the Club's 'homepage', using 'Manual HTML' for the Content Editor:

{{if \IPS\Request::i()->id == '5'}}
Unique content for Club with ID 5
{{elseif \IPS\Request::i()->id == '6'}}
Unique content for Club with ID 6
{{endif}}

This would be for the Club's topic listing, using 'Manual HTML' for the Content Editor:

{{$forum = \IPS\forums\Forum::load(\IPS\Request::i()->id);}}
{{$clubId = $forum->club()->id;}}
{{if $clubId == '5'}}
Unique content for Club with ID 5
{{elseif $clubId == '6'}}
Unique content for Club with ID 6
{{endif}}

This would be for the Club's topic view, using 'Manual HTML' for the Content Editor:

{{$topic = \IPS\forums\Topic::load(\IPS\Request::i()->id);}}
{{$clubId = $topic->container()->club()->id;}}
{{if $clubId == '5'}}
Unique content for Club with ID 5
{{elseif $clubId == '6'}}
Unique content for Club with ID 6
{{endif}}

 

Do not enable the 'Cache this block' setting
