how on earth did you guys make the sub forum section at the top of this forum great job.
i would like something simlar if anyone no's.
im guessing no one would no or will reply lol but doesnt hurt to ask.

The tabs? Easy.

You just make forums that don't appear on forumhome, then link to them in the skin.

I think he means the actual HTML behind displaying them. ;)

[ShawneyJ]

sorry, but please could someone explain this a little more to me please?

i mean how on earth can you hide a forum on forum home, and make it appear somewhere alse. this maybe the main thing i need to?

Ok, so first you will make your main category in forum manager.... this will make it not viewable on forumhome...

Main Cat:

Act as Forum --> NO
Forum is Active --> NO
Forum is Open --> NO

Now your sub cats which will be viewable in Main Cat...

Cat:

Act as Forum --> NO
Forum is Active --> YES
Forum is Open --> NO

Then your forums...

Forum, also viewable:

Act as Forum --> YES
Forum is Active --> YES
Forum is Open --> YES

That should do it...

If a forum's display order is set to 0 it will not be included in the forum list on index.php. :)

Hint: Only use this trick with parent forums. ;)

[ShawneyJ]
