Step 2 or 3, "then add this new function to the file"

Which function are you refering to?

there is just one functione in the install file, so it's that function of course

Alright, I got it!

Thumbs up!!

It just dawned on me that if you click on one of the columnized forums on your index page, you are taken to the appropriate forum but you would never see the forum description. Not really a big deal, but some descriptions can provide information to the poster that would be helpful prior to them posting in that particular forum etc.

What I would like to do is to display the forum description in the navbar area immediately after the drill down info. How can I pickup the $forum[description] variable so that I can place it in the navbar???

Thanks!
Dan

you may want to start a new thread, as this has nothing to do with my hack at all.

I think it's just a small template mod, so try look at vbulletintemplates.com

Small bug Stefan ;)

In the forumhome_forumbit_columncell template find:

Replace with:

As the $show['forumdescription'] doesn't exisit.

Yep, pointed it out to Lee today :p

Has anybody been able to get the collapsable forums function working with this hack? No matter what I do I cannot seem to get it to work in conjunction...

Any help, is greatly appreciated! :D

Chris

line 426 in functions_forumlist.php:

so i assume no bug :)

@chris: it works perfectly for me.

Is that inclusive of having the table header as per someone's suggestion in here?

Or do you have the category header and then the columns straight after?

HELP! :(

i have the original version of my hack of course.
i cannot speak for modifications others made

Something's gone wrong with the colspan somewhere.. Any ideas.?

i did look through that thread, but code in vB3 is different, so i still have my quoestion:

HOW TO: change tableheader for columnized forum category? like it made here (on vb2) -> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...chmentid=16775

@Oblivion knight: it seems you have not made the needed changes to the forumhome_forumbit_level1 templates.

@MC: with using an easy templatecondition on the line where that header is created

Ah.. I didn't realise you had to make the change to the forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost template.

All is working well now, thanks.. :)

:)

you're welcome

sorry, but i`m absolutly "0" in coding (i mean i can code HTML, but all other things and <if>-tag as well for me is non-understandable)... so, if you`ll be so kind can you please?

you don't have the standard templates, so i cannot help much.

the templatemod you applied is most likely located on vbt.com, try to ask for a modification there :)

as i don't know the other mod, i just can give you the general way of doping it, but it's impossible to be more specific

ok... i think i find solutions... i need to install one more template mod and if it`s not help so i`ll come back ;) Good Luck!

how do you drop the table?

huh?

what table do you want to drop???

the SQL
i am not good with SQL commands and i dont know a lick about them

Sorry i really don't understand what you want, maybe this thread may help ya:

[sql] -[/sql]

if i've installed the vb2 version are their any additional changes i need to make? i.e. the settings table queries etc?

can i use in Vbulletin gold?

@cerebro: i haven't tested it yet, but as there weren't much changes in the code i think so :)

@sabre: the vb2 version is totally different from this one.
this one works on a per forum base and the old one worked just on a setting base.
you sou have to do every step in this install file to install the hack :)

how would i go about uninstalling the vb2 version?

the settings get overwritten when installing vb3 IIRC.

if not, just enable the debug mode and delete the created settings :)

ok...ill try and later i tell u :P

:)

i hope it will be telling, and not blaming ;)

xenon, where do i set the forums i want to display as columns i can't find this in the acp anywhere?

also i installed this before i installed this hack http://www.vbulletintemplates.com/mo...0&page=1&pp=40
with the add-on

so could you please tell me the relevant edits to make on my templates in regards to that file

and all of my catergories are closed by default and in my attempt to open them nothing happens.

you have to edit a forum it self, there is an option on how many colums should it's subforums have on forumhome.

as for the Template question, you may better ask Zak, he's the template guy, i'm just good in php ^^

oh sorry i think my brains waking up, so this is all done via templates apart from the file edits :)

ok so what template do i edit to say parentid = XX display as columns?

i'm wondering as i can't find any admin options what so ever?

Works great on vB3 gold. Awesome hack xenon =D

My template mod is here:
http://www.vbulletintemplates.com/mo...7976#post47976

yay, how awesome is sleep, found the option in the acp and now working :)

if you installed faranth's forumhome split thing, and you wanna mod it to make this fit simply find

and at the <tr> should be above it add then find and right in front of it close the if statement that will give you perfect forums and you'll be able to mod all you like :)

anyway i'm sorry for bugging you so much last night xenon, i've now learn't never to try and hack when i'm in need of sleep :)

*gg*
Glad you could solve it ;)
