To hide the left blocks for all modules, you need to edit your theme.php file. Find this code Code:

blocks(left);
and comment it out Code:
//blocks(left);


To hide the left block for a specific module, you need to edit theme.php and do 2 things. First of all, in the themeheader() function, add the variable $name to the global statement. Then, find this code Code:

blocks(left);
and change it to Code:
if ($name=="MODULE_NAME") {}
else blocks(left);

where MODULE_NAME is the name of the module to hide the blocks. For example, to hide the left blocks when viewing the Member List, you would code Code:

if ($name=="Members_List") {}
else blocks(left);


Note that you will have to do this for every theme that you use. This will makre the left blocks disappear when you view for instance the forum. This will expand your forum to fill the area of your screen at least as wide as your themes header is.

mmm... I have tried this. The block on the left does disappear. However, the Forum does not expand to full screen, taking up the space originally occupied by the left block. Any idea?

I suspect this has something to do with the theme I am using - '2-The-Xtreme'.

Thanks in advance for any help! ^_^

It does probably have something to do with your theme. You might want to check how the tables are defined. They must no be using "100%" for the width property.

Hi all,

Sorry to dig up an old topic but it shows I did search here first icon_biggrin.gif

I can not edit my theme.php as it is encrypted, so do I have any other options?

Regards,

Screwy

Yes.. There is another fix, for those who can't edit the theme.php File.

1. Open the mainfile.php in your nuke root.

2. Find
function blocks($side) {


3. Under that you should see something like
global $storynum, $prefix, $multilingual, $currentlang, $db, $admin, $user;


4. To the end of that line add
, $hideleftblocks


before the ; and after $user.

5. Then directly under that line add
    if (strtolower($side[0]) == "l" && $hideleftblocks) return;


6. Now open modules/Forums/nukebb.php
Find:
include("header.php");


Replace With:
global $hideleftblocks;
$hideleftblocks = 1;
include("header.php");


This should do the trick.. I had to use this Fix with a Theme I purchased from Xtrato.com
