condensed version of Recent Reviews in sidebar?

[ncangler]

I would like to use the custom2pal.tmpl to create a block for Latest Reviews that is similar to the Recent Reviews PAL but half the width so it will fit in the right sidebar. It would be great to have the small thumbnail pic as Recent Reviews does but a condensed version of the review text or even just the product name. I would like to be able to put 10-15 Latest Reviews in that sidebar block to fill out the space on my index page. Clicking on the picture would need to go to that review of course just like the Recent Reviews PAL does. What code would I need to put in the custom2pal.tmpl to accomplish this? thanks!

You will need to consult the recent reviews pal template and alter that code to display only what you wish and you can use that code in the custom pal template

Okay I've got it showing up in the Right Side bar the way I want it to. Now how do I remove the Recent Reviews from the bottom of the page? Thanks for your help.

edit the undercats template and remove the include for the recent reviews template

Oops! I refreshed the page and now the right side display is too wide. Is there a way to set the formatting of Recent Reviews so it stays within the 20% formatting size of the right side bar?

Also I figured out how to get rid of the Recent Reviews and Whos online pal at the bottom.

that depends on your custom pal and what you put in there

As we already know the recent reviews pal we right is not designed to show on a sidebar so you need to look at how you designed this pal to whether it would fit or not
