Maybe I'm missing something, but how is this different from the default vB option to trim the last post's title?

hey hey... Tigga is right... there is no difference... actually it's doing the job for a second time.

I had no idea there was a vb option for this... :(

I'll take a look at it.

I could really use this if it can be made forum specific, i.e. only apply it to certain forum id's. I've been working on a design using Xenon's column hack and want to display thread titles, but the thread title length I want to display on standard forums is too long for my columnized forums. Anyone know how to apply this hack by forum ID number?

Would adding this conditional work?
<if condition="in_array($foruminfo['forumid'], array(X,Y))">

I'm not sure how to do that, but that might be something I'll work on.
