Me too! Someone answered with this, but I didn't get a chance to try.

In FORUMHOME template group find (2) templates:

forumhome_forumbit_level2_post
forumhome_forumbit_level1_post

Add to the line (in red):


<td class="alt2" width="200px" nowrap="nowrap">$forum[lastpostinfo]</td>



Change the "200px" to whatever size you want. Ordinarily this inclusion will work but if not let me know. :)

nope, it's still off even with that modification. that only changes the dimensions of the table grid inside forums. not the whole forum itsself

You can't line them up globally with one attribute, as they are separate tables, and are not joined. You just need to set the maximum width, something large, like 300px.

You can have them perfectly aligned, but the trade off is it'll have to be a fixed width. If that's not a concern, just remove the percentage and use a set width. The left td will just scale to fill in the space.
