How can I change the order of the widgets on the right

Claus Lampert Posted in Component Development 8 years ago

I have installed some components that are displayed on the right side, for example the components "Latest Members", "HTML Sidebar" and "OSSN Ads".
How can I change the order in which this components are displayed? For example "Latest Members" is on top of "HTML Sidebar" but I want to be "HTML Sidebar" the first component to be displayed on the right.
It´s not the Component-ID in the Database, it´s not the name of the component. But what is it instead?

In version v5 we have planned this to do from admin panel, you would be easily sort widgets by drag/drop.

@Zet Man: I think a lower number means that the component is placed higher to the top. But thank you for the hint :-)

Darry,
please repect the topics and threads of other members. If you have a new or different problem, please start a new thread. Have in mind that searching this forum for solutions and answers will become really difficult and ineffective with a mixup like this.

Hi!
But the HTML SIDEBAR seems not to be working for me. Each time I typed in an html code, it won't display anything. Is as if to me that the component doesn't exists because it gets blank reply. Any help on that?
Also @Claus, could you please help me with the #Latest Members Component?
I really need that too.
Thanks in advance!

see the last parameter of

function ossn_add_hook($hook, $type, $callback, $priority = 200)

in ossn.lib.systems. The default is 200, the OssnAds component is registering already with 300. That is: if you want your component on top of it, you need something > 300.

As an exercise for tomorrow you can make it adjustable with an Admin's setting page :))
