any one help me from which file i can edit these settings

I don't know of a way you can set the description length in default vbulletin - it looks like it takes the first 500 characters of the first post to use as the description. What did you want to change it to? You'll probably have to modify the files.

many sites are using the title and the category name in description like vbulletindotorg watch in ur page source plz tell me the procedure to change this or modify these settings

or want to edit these settings upto 200 characters

I think it may be set in showthread.php around like 349. Change 500 to 200.

thanks alot and if i want title and category name in description then what should i have to do

Modify that line of code to put those things in there.

i have done it but it is giving me this error
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/islamick/public_html/showthread.php on line 282

You should only use a plain text editor to edit any files and make sure the encoding you choose to save it in does NOT say "with BOM"!

any one guide me plz

This is not going to work:
You would need something like:
Please see the api for that function here - https://members.vbulletin.com/api/vB..._trimmed_title The second parameter must be a number.

sir $thread['forumid'] gives the output of forum id number but i want to display forum name
this code gives me the output of title and forum number but forum name
i had search a lot but i cant find the variable of forum category name
e.g:- any one help me to limit the content size vB4 General Discussions
title and forum category name

Perhaps $foruminfo['title'] or $foruminfo['title_clean']

thanku so much dear it is runing properly :)
