  • Could you do it entirely with HTML and CSS? Wrap each bookmark in a floating div with 33% width, and your bookmarks should start to form 3 columns on their own…

    something like:

    <div id="bookmarks">
         <div style="width: 30%; float: left" class="float-mark">Bookmark</div>
         ... (continued for all bookmarks)
     </div>

    This is easy to fix, it’s just an issue with the way that the original plugin is written and to how things get called in 2.5.

    just open up the plugin in a text editor and move the following 3 functions outside the scope of the functions they are in:

    ns_substr_ellipse
    ns_get_user_url
    ns_show_top_commentators

    Anyway, if you want the changes, I put my modified file back into the top commentators zip file. You can grab it if you want, but use at your own risk 🙂 The changes I made are working fine over at my blog:

    Your problem could be that something in your sidebar was too large for the width of it. Sometimes long strings of text can cause that to happen, because the web browser is unable to figure out how to wrap it.

    The effect you are describing is often caused when the sidebar is set to “float” in your style (which allows it to be on the left or right hand side of your content. If the box overflows, on some browsers it will push the sidebar underneath the rest of your content.

    I’m not sure if that is helpful at all, but hopefully it will point you at some things to look into.
