Just had to say great job Mystics... After spending a few minutes digging through the code trying to force it not to show the category in 'last post' column I decided to check the control panel... and sure enough you had already thought of that. Thanks! Brilliant work.

Hey Mystics, great hack, very very useful!

I've got a question. I'm using the option to force my users to select a category and that works fine, but I'd like to force them to select even if they don't want to have a category. So I want them to have the possibility to choose 'none' with value="". I've tried to find the spot where I can add an empty standard, but I can't find the place.

Do you understand what I mean and can you help me with this?

Thanks already!

Just thought I'd say hi and thanks for a wonderful mod. Certain forums on my board need to have a status on the threads, and this has worked perfectly for me with no adjustments on the install on my vB3.0.9 (apart from some minor mods to allow for co-existing hacks). I've clicked the 'install' on here of course :)

One thing I'd love to know, is where I can look to add the ability to allow the category text to be different colors i.e. Help = Red, Checked = Blue, Resolved = Green etc. I would imagine this means a major modification of the way the details are both stored and retrieved from mySQL which is fine, but I'm just asking to save me reinventing the wheel :)

Any chance of a 3.5 version of this (product/plug-in or otherwise) :) ?

I would appreciate this also.
Can't understand why Jelsoft did not include this in 3.5 by default ... :ermm:

This Hack run in vB. 3.5???

No, not yet.

Mystics, what about my idea??

I installed this the day before 3.5 gold came out. I now need this for the new version ;)

Any news or updates about that?

Does that mean that the update is in process? :surprised:
