How do you make different stuff appear in the sidebar?

[lauralee]

Is there something like a sidebar widgets system for pligg or do I need to alter the templates to have modules show up in the sidebar?

If so, what is the template's name, maybe templates? I have added google adsense to sidebar.tpl on my site, SocialXD.com - Pligg Template Demos l Social Bookmark Network but how do I add the module of CNN, etc, that I have purchased on the pliggpro site?

Please help. Thank you.

To install a module:

1. Upload the module folder to the modules directory
2. Login as admin to the admin panel
3. Go to "Modules Management" ->Available Modules and click on Install
4. Check to see if it needs any configuration in the modlename_settings.php

The sidebar.tpl is the "includes" of the template files that are in the sidebar_modules folder.
