Hi there,

It's possible, but requires a bit of editing.

The button is controlled from sidebar.php on line 3...

<a href="#" title="Toggle Sidebar" id="sidebarToggle">+</a>

...and from custom.js on lines 128-142...

////////////////
//SIDEBAR WIDTH ANIMATION
////////////////
sidebarToggle.toggle(function(){
	var wrapperWidth = jQuery(window).width() - 300;
	jQuery(this).addClass('open').stop(true,true).animate({right:"325px"},500).html('&times;');
	sidebar.stop(true,true).animate({width:"300px"},500);
	wrapper.stop(true,true).animate({width:wrapperWidth+"px"},500);
	return false;
},function(){
	jQuery(this).removeClass('open').stop(true,true).animate({right:"25px"},500).html('+');
	sidebar.stop(true,true).animate({width:"0px"},500);
	wrapper.stop(true,true).animate({width:"100%"},500);
	return false;
});

...Note lines 133 and 138 from above...

jQuery(this).addClass('open').stop(true,true).animate({right:"325px"},500).html('&times;');

jQuery(this).removeClass('open').stop(true,true).animate({right:"25px"},500).html('+');

Let me know if that helps.

Best,

Chris

I was looking to see if it was possible to change the plus sign in the upper right hand corner that opens the widget to display a word or another image. Is it possible to edit the plus sign? And is it also possible to change the X that displays when the widget is open?
