Yeah I know but apparently many people are using the sidebar menu, interestingly...
I have plans on redoing the profile area entirely (not entirely dissimilar to the admin panel, FWIW), so ultimately the sidebar menu is going to go and hopefully to be replaced with something better.

I have seen it on other accounts, and I'm hoping that's just a consequence of the buggy member options code rather than people setting them themselves...

Seriously... select * from {db_prefix}themes where member = Nathan Sparrow

(...)
use_sidebar_menu = 1

I asked you if you'd disabled the menu, you said no, so I looked elsewhere... :^^;:
Anyway! It seems to always be related to that setting. I'll look into it a bit.
But I didn't...I left it as it was, the checkbox was checked as is. :huh:

I think you missed my edit, only 3 persons were using it, really, and it's really what causes the bug, because only their names showed up. Unfortunately they haven't come back online so I can't analyze their latest $member_context dump. (Aaron's seem to be perfectly normal, so I'd really like to see these.)

Please don't redo the profile area too deeply... I like most of it ;)
The only need we need to do is give the homepage a proper clean-up, similar to Ultimate Profile.

@Nathan> Uhh...
Can you please try and visit the profile area in sidebar mode?

I see you're on the profile. What is it saying? You should have a custom error message showing up in the menu... Please tell me where ;)

The homepage is the most agreeable part of it, but other than that, it's not actually that nice. The nicest thing I could say about it is that it's functional. It's not particularly aesthetically pleasing, it is just functional.

The goal isn't to keep it functional, it's to make it a place where users might actually want to go. Maybe some aspects of http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=698 a touch.

UP's summary is definitely an improvement on the current summary, but I'm also concerned not just with how the user sees the summary, but how they access everything.

I'm asking you to tell me where it is showing relative to other items in the menu... :whistle:

@Pete> But I hate that mod... :^^;: You know I'm not pro-big-icons. All I want is a functional menu really... :-/ Anyway. I'm sure you'll find a way!

I'll keep it toned down compared to that mod :P That's why I haven't touched it yet, I don't know how I want it all to look, I just know it needs going over and overhauling.

It seem to be showing in all profile actions.

Okay, so I took two minutes, and did the unthinkable -- removed my admin access to Wedge.org!

The error shows up in place of where the Media section should have been!
Done. Just need to look into why it's leaving something there when the Media area is disabled...

Btw, it showed only ONCE for me. ?!

Grmpf... Still can't seem to find anything.

Please Nathan, or anyone with the problem -- post a screenshot of your sidebar area!!
I'm too tired, I'm crashing. If I listened to myself, I'd simply add a @ next to $section['title'] and not bother with this all... :^^;:

Oh, since it was the default on the Noisen-ish Wedge.org, I assumed it was a design experiment of sorts. I appreciate the innovation, hence I felt a bit sorry for not liking it.
