Recent Winners Sidebar block?:

[CritiKiL]

I have not updated to the latest version mainly because I have made alot of template edits. But I was wondering how do I get the 'recent winners' sidebar to show up?

Its not something you can get to display without upgrading as there are new templates that need to be installed, new files, files that have been upgraded etc. Not sure if you use TMS or not, but since you do a lot of editing, you might want to install it and do all your edits through it. It really does come in handy for that as someone I know with a TON of edits to showcase uses TMS and it makes for easy upgrading.

I can copy the folder onto my comp then just replace the edited files I guess and I also have a test site. How can I get the latest upgrade?

You can download the latest version via your customer account (hover over the Store Tab and click on customer account).

You can TRY, but that isn't something I'd recommend.

Lol! Now you have me scared. I forgot to mention that 'yes' I use TMS but it seems you know more about what could go wrong should I try to upgrade, so I'll just leave everything be. Sucks that I have to risk messing a good thing up just to have a sidebar though but in remembering all that we did...it really isn't worth it ;-)

Don't be scared. If you want, send an inbox to ibenick (http://addons.nfljunkies.com/members/ibenick.297/) and ask him about how his experience with upgrading and TMS went with the huge upgrade for showcase.

I personally don't use it, but everyone I know that does use it says that upgrading is usually a breeze compared with manual template edits.

Best thing I could suggest (after installing TMS )... find the files you edited in Sportsbook, copy them into notepad, save them. Upgrade Sportsbook. Enter all edits from your notepad's into TMS.

Sounds more complicated than it truly is. TMS is a lifesaver. If you need any help, gimme a shout.
