Hello what do I need to edit to align the boxes for each section on my forum ?

As shown here in the picture below

http://www.acegames.us/forum.gif

--------------- Added 1205237432 at 1205237432 ---------------

Now fixed one of my super moderators looked into it and found this in forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost :

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" align="center">
<if condition="$childforumbits">
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumbit_$forumid" style="{$collapseobj_forumid}">
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead" width="15">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="160">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead" width="40">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead" width="40">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions[showmoderatorcolumn]">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>


And changed to this :

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" align="center">
<if condition="$childforumbits">
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumbit_$forumid" style="{$collapseobj_forumid}">
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead" width="5%">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" align="$stylevar[left]" width="50%">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="25%">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead" width="10%">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead" width="10%">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions[showmoderatorcolumn]">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>

If you define the column widths properly then it should be working just fine.
Check all 4 templates
forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level1_post

i can assure you if you assign width size it should normally fix.. dont knw if u are using any additional mods but all i can suggest is find all the place where see Last post info and change the width.. try trial and error. I use it in my Skin Morbid you can check the exact template i edited and its the same one i told you.

as you can see they are default templates bar one. So if you can tell me what code to put in which template (as listed) i would be grateful. Telling me to just assign width's isn't helping me - i need the actual code please - thanks

The code I posted was for my modified template

The code you posted above with my default template :

Forumhome mine is identical
forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost mine is identical

forumhome_forumbit_level1_post identical apart from this on last line
$forumbit_advertisement

forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost mine is identical

forumhome_forumbit_level2_post identical apart from this on last line
$forumbit_advertisement

The problem is not with any of the above but is with this template forumhome_seperate_forumcats Why have you got a table break at the top of that template ? :

</table>
<br />
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>
</thead>


I dont use that plugin so unsure if its correct but you could try :


<br />
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>
</thead>
</table>


Or failing that look at these two lines
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>

And try something like :
<td class="thead" width="75%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="25%">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>

PS If this works give ACE_UK some karma ;)

any have idea for this problem ? all my

forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level1_post


are normal... for the posted above...



My problem solved but not the solution above
look my attachmnet


here is the code i use

Find in:
- FORUMDISPLAY
- FORUMHOME
- forumhome_seperate_forumcats

PHP Code:
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>

And replace it with (for example):

PHP Code:
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead" width="5%">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="50%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="35%">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead" width="0%">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>
