Thank you for explaining that.

You should see the number of nominations in the leftmost column in that table when you click the button to view it. There is no option to turn that column off.

I can see them when I click on "show nominated". I think my problem, confusion is because I temporarily had it set to 'auto add new threads' thinking that meant new threads that already had the correct number of votes and I thought they'd been nominated. My confusion. Thanks!

The auto-adding of new threads is done without regards to any nominations/ratings/replies; as soon as a new thread is added to one of the designated forums, it is added to the Featured Threads list. :)

Is there anyway to make "Most Replied Threads" permanently show for our members on the Featured Threads page?

And also, is it easily possible to insert "Featured Threads" into a widget for the CMS?

Please forgive my excitement at loving your add-on so much

Do you mean where the top X replied threads is auto-maintained? If so, that's not currently a feature of the product.

I have no experience with CMS or its widgets. Sorry. :(

Thank you Mark. I'll figure out how to squeeze your terrific add-on into a CMS widget yet ;)

I removed and added a few forums but when I go to the Management panel, it's still showing the old ones. I emptied the cache and even went to tools to rebuild the forum cache but it's still showing me the old forums. How can I update that please? Thanks

For now, until I can address the issue in a future update, remove the threads that are in new/renamed forums from the featured threads list, and them add them back...they should then show the correct forum. :)

Thanks Mark. They were already showing the correct forum on the Featured Threads Display block on the forum page. It's just in the Admin CP that the forums aren't updating. If this helps, it's listing the new forums in the Admin CP but not removing the deleted ones in "Managing The "Featured Threads" List"

Take your time. It's just a small thing. Thanks again

Try clearing the system cache. All of my products rely on the cache to construct a list of the available forums within their settings. :)

You may never want to talk with me again. Those forums were only deactivated, not deleted. I obviously need some sleep :( Profuse apologies for wasting your time. That's 2 boxes of chocolate now
