http://www.socialacademy.biz/t441-tutorial-latest-topic-system-v5

I added the code above and everything seem to work, however there seem to be a small problem -- which being the layout looks like this when you add it;



I want the full thing to spread through the page as like how the site layout looks now without the Latest Topic System being placed.

Here's the CSS to the above system;

Code:

/* Latest topics System V5 */
#content-container div#main{margin-bottom:0}
*+ html #content-container div#main{margin-left:0;margin-right:0}
#content-container div#left{float:none;width:100%}

#left #recent_topics .lastRight{width:20%!important}
.half li:nth-child(6),.half li:nth-child(7),.half li:nth-child(8),.half li:nth-child(9),.half li:nth-child(10),#active_starters,#users_month{display:none}
/* Tooltip */
#tooltip{background-color:#FFF;border:2px solid #333;color:#131313;max-width:550px;padding:10px}

How to fix this?

Link to my site: http://www.bleachstory.net/

Have yo tried to get help from the forum that has this tutorial?  It is best to ask for help there since usually the author of the tutorial is a member of that forum.

Sadly that site is dead and the admin himself is inactive...

you can ask him here :

Spoiler:

@Ch@lo Valdez that forum doesn't look like a English supported site. I don't understand what they are saying in it.

I see.

Well, hopefully @Zzbaivong sees this topic and is kind enough to give a solution to my problem.

@udarsha45: I can't read that topic, it has been hidden. Please follow the tutorial below, I've updated it like the style of your forum.

overall_header

Find and delete:

Code:
