Forum Structure
 

Howdy peeps, :)

I have been trying to figure out how to make all "levels" of my forums all show up on the main page. What I mean by that is I have the main forums setup by geographical areas and then within each, they are subdivided by areas within the main area and in those, I have further subdivisions. An example is this:

Numismatic Discussion Forums (main level)

North America (level 2)

United States (level 3)

Various Forums (level 4)

Canada (level 3)
Greenland (level 3)
Saint Pierre & Miguelon (level 3)
Bermuda (level 3)

On the main page all I can see is the North America level and none of the sub-levels below it but on other Main Forums, that only have one sub-level, the sub-levels are viewable on the main page, it's only the forums that have 2 or more sub-levels that won't show up.

I know there has to be a "Show Level" function somewhere but I've either overlooked it or not found it yet and I need help finding it (I lost my map). :D

Ribbit :)

Ps: If my explanation isn't understandable, then go look at my forum:

coinchat.org/forums

Notice North America and how there is no collapsible thingy and then click on North America and see what all is "under" it. ;) I want all of that to show up on the main page, with the ability to collapse it (user defined).

Pps: Under "vBulletin Options" / "vBulletin Options" / "Forum Listings Display Options" there are sections that look like what I'm talking about but I have those set to 4 and it does nothing. :(

You need to create new templates for it. Copy forumhome_forumbit_level2_post and forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost and call them forumhome_forumbit_level3_post and forumhome_forumbit_level3_nopost. (And for level4, if needed.) See if that works.

That sounds greek to me. :erm:

Where am I suppose to do that at and how do I access it? :D

You would Add a template by selecting Add a Template in the Style Manager dropdown for that style. You may want to read the manual about it - Editing the Templates

You were right on the money, Lynne! :up:

The Editing Template walkthru thingy explained everything and I found the codes to copy and now everything shows up exactly like I wanted. :D It was so easy! :D

I'm so tickled! :D

Ps: Now to fix my smiley problem. :cool:

We have a couple of users on my site who love their smilies as much as you appear to. It's hard not to smilie with so many smilies smiling at you. :)

Glad you got it working!
