very nice Stefan, but you forgot to add 'forumhome_forumbit_columncell' to the global templates in index.php. It doesnt get cached atm. :)

If it doesnt already can we have the latest post underneath the name and maybe a shorter version of the description?

the last post info is parsed, so you can add it to the template yourself if you want to

for a shorter description find this:

PHP Code:


		
			
            if (!$vboptions['showforumdescription'])

            { // blank forum description if set to not show

                $forum['description'] = '';

            }

and below add:

PHP Code:


		
			
                $forum['description'] = substr($forum['description'], 0, 50);

to just get the first 50 chars of a description

Interesting looking hack! I have one category that has grown and now has 23 forums in it.

Question 1: "Sub-Forums" has been referred too, but by looking at the screen shot it appears that is puts all forums in a category into the column mode. Is this correct or just a forum that has 1 or more sub-forums?

Question 2: If it indeed only works with forums that have sub-forums, can you specify which forum(s) that you want to do this in?

Sorry for the dumb questions, but it's been one of those days. Maybe I'm not seeing the forest for the trees!

Thanks all!

All sections are meerly put into the way it is shown in the screenshot, if these sections have sub sections, i believe you will have to go inside to see them.

As for specifying what forum you want to do this with, the answer is yes :)

As Mindtrix already posted, you can specify which forums have their subforums ordered in columns.

on that screenshot i entered to show the subforums of my 2 categories to show up in that specific columns, but you can change which one's subforums show up that way.
But note, this just works on Forumhome, on forumdisplay it will show all forums the traditional way.

also i have not tested about how nested forums will look like if you have enabled to display more than two levels on forumhome, maybe it would be worth a try someday :)

I really do not understand where to find the construct_column function :confused:
