Is there any way to hide the subforums for a particular forum on the main page FORUM HOME only? For example I have a forum with a quite lot of subforums under it. I want to hide them and make that forum look as if it does not have any subforums ( on the home page ) but when you click it...the subforums show there normally as they would do.

Thanks in advance!

There are 4 templates you have to edit for each style...

forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level2_post
forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost

In each make this edit:

Find:
<if condition="$show['subforums']">

Replace With:
<if condition="$show['subforums'] AND $forum[forumid] != X">

Replace X with the forumid of the parent forum from which you don't want to show subforums on forumhome.

You don't need to code anything, in your admincp>forum listings display options change this:

Depth of Sub-Forums
If you have forums below the depth specified in the 'Depth of Forums' settings above, you can display them as sub-forum links in each forum's display area.

Set this value to 0 if you want to display no sub-forums.

To zero :)

That applies to ALL forums. We're only wanting to not display the subforums of certain forums..
