Hi,

When you open a forum in vbulletin, there is the navigation bit and under that is a line with the forum title and description. I found the navbar template but I can't find the template for that line under it. Where can I find the template for that part?

e.g. for this forum it's the part in grey with the black border reading 'general vbulletin discussions'.

thanks!

Look for forum description. ;)

No, sorry, I don't mean the description itself I mean the _template_ for the bit I described.

Go to your Admin CP > vBulletin Options > General Settings and turn on the option that puts the template name in the source code. Then go back to the page, refresh, and look at the source code and you will find out the name of the template.

yes I know it is enabled but that part is not included! It reads like this in the source code:

<!-- breadcrumb, login, pm info -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
(..)
</table>
<!-- / breadcrumb, login, pm info -->

<!-- nav buttons bar -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:0px">
(..)
</table>
<!-- / nav buttons bar -->

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="alt1" width="100%"><strong>Forum name</strong> <span class="smallfont">Forum description</span></td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->


the part I'm after is the part after '<!-- / nav buttons bar -->'.

It appears to be an addition to the FORUMDISPLAY Template!

Look for:

<!-- controls above thread list -->

View Source on their General Discussion Forum page has this addition:



<table class="tborder" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="alt1" width="100%" align="left">
<strong>General vBulletin Discussions</strong>: <span class="smallfont">General modification &amp; vBulletin discussions. eg. "How do I do this in vBulletin?", "Can this product do this?", "What does this feature do?", etc</span> </td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />

<!-- threads list -->

<!-- controls above thread list -->


So the Box is created with the instructions:



<table class="tborder" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="alt1" width="100%" align="left">

Table Data Content

</tr>
</table>
<br />


Hope that helps.

Regards,
