I have looked throughout the site and can't seem to to find this modification. It allows you to place the sub-forums under the main forum instead of inside it on the forumhome page.

In your Admin CP go to vBulletin Options > Forum Listings Display Options and look for Depth of Sub-Forums change it to a different value (instead of 0) and they will display for you on the forumhome.

Yeh, but I found a write-up somewere before on it. I also want to remove the words "Sub-Forums" that appear right before them on my main forums page....

Okay, to remove the words Sub-Forums: is a two step process.

Admin CP > Languages & Phrases > Search in Phrases

Type in Sub-Forums and click Find. Scroll to the bottom until you see the GLOBAL Phrases Containing 'Sub-Forums' section, under it you will see subforums Click on the Edit button. In the box hit your space bar one time to leave a space or it will not overwrite the current phrase.

Edit your forumdiplay template, find:


<td class="tcat" width="100%">$vbphrase[subforums]<span class="normal">: $foruminfo[title]</span></td>


and remove the colon so it looks like this: (right after normal)


<td class="tcat" width="100%">$vbphrase[subforums]<span class="normal"> $foruminfo[title]</span></td>


Granted, this method is just a quick slap together but it will remove your sub-forums text from your forumhome :)
