All I can see at that link is a single column that has Easy Navigation at the top. It's the only column I can see.

But, if you need to find a template to check out widths, do this - vboptions > General Settings > Add Template Name in HTML Comments > set to Yes . Then go back to your page and view the source code and you will see the name of the template called around your part of the code. Sometimes the template is the one mentioned at the very top of the page source.

Thanks Lynne, you must be using IE some versions aren't working correctly, we're working on that.

If you try it in FF you should see the template.

I am using firefox (I'm on a mac so I don't have IE).

I just tried it this morning and I can see the forums. Yesterday I could not (not sure what changed, if anything).

You have your categories separated so they are all in different tables. You can set the width of the Last Post by finding the template and modifying it (as per my last post). It may be that you need to decrease the number of title characters in the Last Post (vboptions > forum listing display > last thread title max chars).

There are many opening and closing tags at wrong place .e.g. <table> , <td> ... I think the problem is in the code for side column. I cannot tell you where as you are using some HTML compressor and the code is all bunched up together.
