This is how my forums are laid out:

This is how it looks:

Where it says "Put Category Title Here..." I'd like it to say "Main Category" (the name of that area).

And then I'd like one of the borders on the bottom to be removed, so it's only 1px, instead of 2px wide.

Then where the other 2px wide line is, I'd like another bar to go there, with the name of that category (so make it a variable that reads the name).

How can I do this?

To change the "Put Category Title Here" you need to edit the phrase "forum" (global) in the phrase manager.

Replace "yourdomain.com" appropriately and this should take you straight to it:

http://www.yourdoman.com/admincp/phrase.php?do=edit&phraseid=3272&page=14&pp=15&fieldname=global

To change the outer border you'll need to go to the style manager and edit your style there, choose "All Style Options" and then edit the Table Border extra CSS attributes.

The first thing you told me to do, would that not just add the word "forum" in that spot? I want the category title of the forum. I removed the tcat bar, and want to put the main category title there instead.

Thanks, but your second answer also doesn't work for me. I need to do it manually somehow in the code, I just need it disabled for that one area.

See? This is how I want it to look. But with the forumtitle variables in the "Put Category Title Here" spaces.

Your category names should be showing where you have "Put First..." and "Put Second ..." Have you installed a mod that changes those?

Screenshot from my 3.8.4, my first category is where rules, announcements, etc reside.
