Small update to 1.3.3:

Edit forumdisplay.php and find:Replace it with:Otherwise the selected category got lost when browsing through multiple forumdisplay pages.

Thanks for the update.
I wanted to know if there's a way to make the Thread Category dropdown menu (on forumshow) be the same as others? See attached screenshot, the Thread Category dropdown menu is a little bit narrower than the others. It's the same in Opera.

Very nice hack, works like a charm for me !

Just a little thing : when editing the first post with QuickEdit, the category is lost. Any suggestion for that ?

Thanks anyway !

What do you mean with "QuickEdit"?

If you edit the first post, you are able to change the current category.

Sorry, I mean the QuickEdit hack : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...245#post500245

If you edit the first post using QuickEdit, the thread will lose its category.

Any way we can choose different colours for different categories?

_Excellent_ hack, well done and will prove to be quite useful. *clicks install* I don't think I've ever edited so many files in one sitting. ;)

I do have a question though. I wonder if there's a way to have it so that categories are required only in certain forums and not required in all that have categories assigned to them. For example, I don't really need categories to be required in say "the bugs, complaints & suggestions" forum, but I'd like for categories to be requried in the "fanfiction" forum since I'm going to have the ratings be the categories.

Either way, love the hack-age. :)

The installation setup was great. It looks like you will be setting a trend and hopefully every hacker will setup their installation pages this way.

Excellent idea and great hack. I have been looking for this.

Thanks for the amazing hack.

One quick suggestion or maybe a request addon for future versions. I am trying to set this up so that members can select which category his/her thread should be in. On my list of category, I have 3 categories only mods/admin and SM should be using (annoucement, featured thread and Rules ) . My question is , is there anyway to set this up in a way for me to specific certain categories registered users are restricted from using?

That would be great

I've installed this hack and I have to say it is well done, I did seem to make a small error somewhere though. I can add categories from the AdminCP - Options but when I try to do it from the forum manager I get the following error:

Not Found
The requested URL /forums/threadcategory.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.29 Server at www.lwg3d.org Port 80

Any ideas on what I did wrong?
