Hi,

I'm trying to create a sub forum like this website has:

http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/forums

If you look at the General Discussion forum (3rd forum), it has sub forums "Media and Research Opportunities" under General Discussion forum and I was wondering how they did that?

I would like to be able to do the same thing as well so that I can display it on my main forums page.

vboptions > Forum Listing Display Options > Depth of Sub-Forums

Use this option to display deep subforums as text links in the parent's forum description area.

For example, if your forums are setup like this:

parent
--child
----child's child

And your forum depth is set to 2 and this setting is set to 3 then you will see the first two forums displayed "fully" on the forum homepage while the level 3 "child's child" forum will appear within the "child" forum's description:

parent
--child
child forum's description.
Sub-Forums: child's child
