V1.0.0 Features
Hide or edit the SubForums: display
Add thread & post counts after SubForum names
Allow a DEFAULT layout of between unchanged, 0 or 1 to 5 columns
Allow INDIVIDUAL SubForums to be specifically set as unchanged, 0 or 1 to 5 columns
Tips
To get it on the Forum Home page, set the "vBulletin Options" > "Forum Listings Display Options" > "Depth of Forums - Forum Home" to "1".
For all other pages, set the "vBulletin Options" > "Forum Listings Display Options" > "Depth of Forums - Forum Display" to "1".
You should also set the "vBulletin Options" > "Forum Listings Display Options" > "Depth of Sub-Forums" to "1". Setting it higher will also work, however, beware that the grandchildren & indenting does not integrate well if using alphabetic sorting (use Forum Display Order sorting instead).
If the following templates have been modified from their original, either "revert" them or test this Mod carefully before use:
forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level2_post
forumhome_subforumseparator_post (ignored)
forumhome_subforumseparator_nopost (ignored)
forumhome_subforumbit_post (append only)
forumhome_subforumbit_nopost (append only)
header (append only)
WishList - Other Ideas
Remember collapse state [eg : cookie] (high)
Number of people viewing count (med)
Enable/Disable for certain styles (med)
Different formatting for each SubForum depth [child/grandchild/etc] (low)

Version 1.1.0 Changes
1) Added ability for user to set the characters containing the thread and post counts
2) Added ability to alphabetically sort the SubForum list by row (horizontal) OR by column (vertical)
3) Added blank cell padding so that the entire grid is fully populated no matter how many elements so that coloured backgrounds look better
4) Added an option for the main icon alignment
5) Added an option to push the table width to the full 100% of the cell
6) Added an option for formatting of the forum description
7) Changed the code so that it works with forums with ", " (comma followed by space) in the name
8) Other minor coding and commenting adjustments

Please add the function to: apply a different depth of sub-forums to specific sub-forums.
You can specify a default for all forums AND you can specify individual forums to have specific settings that are different from the default.
Options are:
Leave as original (screen2.jpg)
Apply formatting only (screen3.jpg)
Put in 1 column
Put in 2 columns (screen4.jpg)
Put in 3 columns (screen8.jpg)
Put in 4 columns
Put in 5 columns
The "formatting" is the addition of the (thread/post) counts as well as the ability to style various aspects of the SubForum display.
If that is not what you mean... can you please explain?
Alfa1
06-08-2008, 10:08 PM
For an example, please go to AdminCP -> vb options -> forum listing display options -> Depth of Forums - Forum Display
This function defines whether sub-forums below a certain depth are shown on forumdisplay.
And:
AdminCP -> vb options -> forum listing display options -> Depth of Sub-Forums
I have several forums where I would like to handle this different from the rest of my forums. It would be nice if you would add settings for this.
Sorky
06-08-2008, 10:20 PM
I see...
It is only designed for 1 at this stage, but if you enter more, the grandchildren, etc get listed also (no differentiation though) .
How exactly would you expect this to work?

One of my forums; forum X has a subforum Y, with about 50 subforums below that. So the display of this subforum Y takes so much space in the forumdisplay of forum X, that forum to reach the threads in forum X, one must browse all the way down.
I would like to just display subforum Y, without listing its 50 subforums.
So instead of:
- Forum X
- - SubForum Y
- - - SubForum 1
- - - SubForum 2
- - - SubForum 3
- - - SubForum 4
- - - SubForum 5
- - - SubForum 6
- - - SubForum 7
- - - SubForum 8
- - - etc
- - Subforum Z
- Threads
I would like to display:
- Forum X
- - SubForum Y
- - Subforum Z
- Threads

Your width seems very narrow... May also be a problem with non-english... Can you try turning all the formatting off and then do No change, Formatting Only, 1 column, then 2, etc (trying with a couple of short named Sub-Forums). PM me the screen-shots and I'll see what I can figure out.
One of my forums; forum X has a subforum Y, with about 50 subforums below that. So the display of this subforum Y takes so much space in the forumdisplay of forum X, that forum to reach the threads in forum X, one must browse all the way down.

I have similar, but I want them shown, so I use 4 columns ;)... Anyway... An extra option of "Forums in which to hide SubForums" or possibly a "Max number of Sub-Forums to display" would do the job?
Does this work any differently than the Cyb SubForum hack already available?
Similar but most definitely not the same... You may note that I credit Cybernetec for the idea & inspiration. I tried his but the big problem for me was that it did ALL or NOTHING. I wanted some forums with 1 column, some with 2, some with 4 and others simply formatted. I offered my suggestions and even sent him adjustments to his to make it almost what I needed. As I received no response, I simply did it all myself. If you were to compare the code from both you would be hard pressed to find any similarities... In fact, his logic/methods and mine are very different.
I'll leave the functional comparison up to you... Whatever works for you is ok by me.
How do i take the commas out i hate how that makes it look in the colums, has comma behind each subcat
Make sure you select an option up the top (even if it is just "apply formatting") and then make sure the "Separator to use between SubForum" is cleared ;)
There's heap of options, give them a try, you can simply disable/uninstall if you're not happy with the results!

You can remove the color definition from the options (I simply put that in as an example). You can of course then put in styles references instead ;-)

I had a similar behavior, which is why I added the "Use the full column width for the SubForum table" option. The fact that the vBulletin table did not have the 100% width setting, meant that the layout could vary. Turn this on and let me know if it helps. If not, PM me the URL so I can have a look at it live.

Can I change the font type of subforums?
There is quite a lot of space between each row. How can I remove that?
Sorky
06-29-2008, 11:22 PM
The SubForum List is displayed in a HTML Table with just the one element [I refer to it as the SubForum Outer Box (table) formatting]. Inside that is another HTML Table [I refer to it as the SubForum Table (table) formatting]. Each cell in that table contains a SubForum name that can have further formatting applied [I refer to it as the SubForum Element (td) formatting].
By working with the first two formatting options you can easily generate a display with or without grid lines with various degrees of spacing. The third formatting option lets you change the SubForum name display.
Enter the formatting here... (ie : Set a different font)
Sorky - SubForum List Control - V1.2.0
. SubForum list Formatting
. SubForum Element (td) formatting
Adjust the table formatting here... (ie : Remove the spacing & padding)

but one request:
i'm using "sorting subforum as it is option" and in "2 colums" but it's showing side by side in order i wanna show them up to down in order and then continue in next colums..
e.g. if "b" subforum is after "a" then it shd be seen below "a" not beside "a"
Sorky
07-02-2008, 10:06 PM
Easy - Simply choose "Sort Alphabetically Down"
You could also leave it unsorted and manually change the "Forum Display Order" values of each forum to rearrange their order manually.

Then "Leave as is (uses the forum display order)"...
In the Forum Manager, set the display order of the SubForums as 1, 2, 3 etc (counting across) so you have...
Forum_a (1) Forum_x (2)
Forum_p (3) Forum_m (4)
Forum_c (5) Forum_b (6)
Simply swapping the numbers will swap their positions ;-)

Simply changing the display order swaps them : Compare this to my previous post
Forum_a (1) Forum_p (2)
Forum_x (3) Forum_m (4)
Forum_c (5) Forum_b (6)
Personally I don't see the point as "Display Order" does it - however, I will add that to the wishlist as "Leave as is (uses the forum display order) - Entered Vertically"
one more query:

Simply clear the "Separator to use between SubForum [original was , ]" option

I believe what you want is already there... Edit the text in "Text to display after last shown SubForum if there were more"
Have it link to the full list "Add hyperlink to the "more" text, linking to the Parent of the SubForums"
I'm also thinking of making the "more..." link expand the SubForum list to the whole list (a collapse within a collapse)! Added that to the WishList ;)
This is a fantastic mod and I love it so far.
How would I remove the last post and thread/post count columns. I would like to keep them for all other locations other than where I have set up the two columns for my sub-forums. If you have a link or know of an article, I would love to read it.
I imagine what you want is an "All/Selected" option and field (like I did with the list length). Added to the WishList ;)
Great Mod.
I'm currently working on porting it to use lists instead of a table. If you're interested in the code, let me know.

Thanks for the update.
The new product did not replace the old one when imported.
As per post #55, you probably had the 3.6.x one installed and ten changed to this 3.7.x one (you would see this in the description). The version for 3.6.x only overwrites previous 3.6.x versions and the version for 3.7.x only overwrites earlier 3.7.x versions.
If it was some other reason and you can reproduce it, PM my a URL and I'll take a look.
Excellent product, I originally had the Cyb one installed but wanted to hide sub-forums.. After learning my way around your product.....I love it!!!!

I'm having a little trouble getting the collapse functionality to work.
The hide/show icons simply perform the listen URL (which takes you to the top of the page) without collapsing the sub-forum display. I could be missing something really obvious in a general config setting sense as I haven't changed a great deal of the default settings.

after updating to 1.4.1, it's not showing collapse button. it was showing before.
First - You have edited my PlugIn, so it makes it almost impossible for me to debug as I cannot search for the places that my edits affected. If you want my assistance, you should NOT be editing the PlugIn.
Second - What version were you using before? 1.3.0, 1.3.1 or 1.4.0? I can compare changes, but the place bit that puts in the collapse icon hasn't really changed.
Third - I have tested on 3.6.8 and 3.7.2 without any problems. What changes have you made to your forum - they are the likely culprit - did you happen to install any other PlugIns?
From what I can tell, you may have changed your "forumhome_forumbit_levelX_YYpost" templates. As your forums seem to link to ".../audio-video-14/" instead of ".../forumdisplay.php?f=1 - that would probably be the reason.
Only possible thing I can suggest is to go to admincp - Plugins & Products - Plugin Manager edit "Sorky02 - SubForum List Control - parse_templates" : Change the "Execution Order" to 1 and see if that works.
No more help will be provided on an edited version of my PlugIn.

Depth of Sub-Forums 1
it works fine in the index forum home as you can see:

I have upgraded and I have a small estetical problem:
I have selected to show 2 columns and the table is not splitting the entire space in 2 but is saving a small space on the right side like is having another column or the subforum box is 70% out of the outer box table. If you select more columns than 2 the same small space (aprox 70% of the outher table) is divided in columns and the rest of space is empty.
You cans see here what I am talking about (http://www.eugenol.ro/forum/index.php)
Before it use to have fluid settings for the table (like I am using a wide monitor and I had only 2 columns very wide. Now I have 2 columns fixed and empty space on right side.
I have trimmed the names of the subforums barely to fit the previous setup with 2 columns. If the space is smaller it looks funny.

I have a little a problem after upgrading from 1.4.1 to 1.5.1

No ideas at all.
I just loaded 1.4.1 and them 1.5.1 went straight over it - no problems...
I know you'll have fixed it by simply removing the old one (after copying the settings), but if you can work out a reliable sequence that reproduces the problem, I'll be glad to check it out.

One more thing sorky, you may wanna upgrade that in Cyb Subforums, infront of each subforum, it shows in the brackets how many threads are there in the subforum along with number of posts in there like:
Forum A
--Subforum 1 (23/159)
--Subforum 2 (45/450)
so on and so forth.
At least I liked that a lot and would want this to happen in sorky 1.5 as well.

sorry

yes sir i have disabled it and now am trying yours:)
but please guide me how to make it adopt the color for each style :) appreciate that.
Where I have "formatting" fields (eg:style=...) you could instead put something like class="thead"
ok my bad, didnt read it through. there is an option for showing threads/posts

No problem - There are a lot of options and I understand they can be a bit confusing... Once you get the concepts, you should find it quite easy ;)

As you can see. it removes the forums from the list created by project tools. would it be possible to show them?
Back after a short intermission, I have managed to get some work done on this (thanks JakeS)... Seems that Project Tools does not have the Hook I'd like, so a template mod is the easiest solution to getting multiple columns working nicely. Simply replace the template with the contents of the attached file.
Could do more with this if by doing some minor work on the Project Tools add-on itself, but I'll need to raise that with the creator.

Question... I found the link to this mod over here out of Cyb's Mod and since theres very little chance I might get an answer there I figured since this software has bit more flexibility that I might ask the same question here and possibly switch...
So here it is... On Cyb's demo site he has the column's arranged however to the right where it shows the most recent thread it shows multiple from the subforums... Is there something in the Vbulletin software that turns this on or is it another mod the works in conjunction with these forum managers... I will probibly upgrade to Sorky's mod as it seems to get more support...
Thanks so much for any help or direction...

CYB has done a great job producing many really great mods and I have only done mine because I couldn't get answers/improvements. I then modified it myself and sent him the update, still nothing. Then I simply decided to redo it all myself and share the benefits of my efforts in return for the inspiration ;)
You are welcome to use his or mine, whatever makes you happy, makes me happy.
In regards to the multiple last posts, simply checking out all CYBs other mods would reveal this :

Thanks Sorky I appreciate the leg work on that... I'm going to switch to yours my site owner is a bit more picky and the improvements you've made will certainly make my job easier working with him... No doubt Cyb does some great work but when it comes to Q&A being able to communicate with the MOD's author is a major consideration on what I install...
Thanks So much...

Quick question, why does my font size get bigger for forum subtitles when I enable the mod? How do I keep it at its current size?

Check the options... "SubForum Element (td) formatting"
I set some defaults, just adjust or even remove them if you wish

Gotta chime in with a big THANK YOU with the quick clarification via PM. For anyone having trouble getting this to just plain work, make sure your settings in ACP -> Forum Listings Display Options are:
Depth of Forums - Forum Home: 1
Depth of Forums - Forum Display: 1
Depth of Sub-Forums: 1
Very much appreciate the help!

All the information on the changes is contained under the 3.8.x modification. It still works for 3.7.x, just seems a bit silly for me to maintain the old ones as people move forward.
Main new change is the expand/collapse functionality can be remembered through a cookie so that if a user collapses a display and goes to a new page, when they come back, it will still be collapsed.

I just noticed this mods breaks XHTML validation because it puts a table (block element) inside a span (inline element). The span is the show or hide span by the way.
Isn't it possible to use a div instead of a span?
Edit: did a quick test by editing the forumbit_display plugin and replaced the span by a div. Mod still works fine (for me anyway) and now validates.

You are absolutely correct - I fixed that in version 1.6.2 which is available for 3.8.x (as noted in this thread ;) )

No "Need", but there are lots of improvements. See the thread for 3.8.x and the "more details" posts for the low down.
Not hard to migrate...
No need to uninstall the existing one
Install the new one (will appear as Sorky03)
Set the options to match the existing one (you can check the existing one)
Disable the existing one (will appear as Sorky02)
Enable the new one
Remove the old one when you are ready
