This is how it currently Views:


Xbox 360

Sub-Forums: Halo 3 , Halo 2 , The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion , Fable , Fable 2 , Forza 2 , Grand Theft Auto IV , Gears of War , Gears of War 2 , Guitar Hero (series) , Madden NFL 09 , Too Human , Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 , Rock Band , Rock Band 2 , The Orange Box , NHL 09 , Mercenaries 2: World in Flames , Dead Rising , Left 4 Dead , NBA 09 , Tales of Vesperia , Infinite Undiscovery , Battlefield: Bad Company , Unreal Tournament 3 , C , Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare , Call of Duty: World at War , Castle Crashers , Chromehounds , Fallout 3 , S , SW: The Force Unleashed , Soul Caliber IV , Skate , Skate 2 , Star Wars Battlefront II

As you can see, I started to do it Alphabetically, starting with C and S (seeing as most games there atm start with it)

And instead of having only the C / S show up, and once clicked, opens the forums, it just added it to the sub-forums. The C / S games are now being Parented by C / S instead of Xbox 360

Any help or can someone tell me how I can make it so the letters show as the sub-forum, and then once clicking on the letter, opens up the boards in each one?

You want to make the number smaller, like 1. (I think). You need to play with the values there.

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

A bit far-fetched, but is there a way to make only some show up as that, or does it have to effect them all?

I wasn't thinking and it also did that to the other tabs I have >_>

This will effect them all. I don't know of a way to only make it effect some. There might be a mod, I don't know. You could search for "forum*" or "sub*" in "all mods" "titles only" and see what turns up.
