FIND THIS in (includes/functions_forumlist.php ) File

if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'index' AND $forum['subforumcolumns'] != 1 AND ($subsonly OR $depth < MAXFORUMDEPTH))
        {
            $childforumbits = construct_forum_columns($forum['forumid'], $forum['subforumcolumns']);
        }
        else if ($subsonly)
        {
            $childforumbits = construct_forum_bit($forum['forumid'], 1, $subsonly);
        }
        else if ($depth < MAXFORUMDEPTH)
        {
            $childforumbits = construct_forum_bit($forum['forumid'], $depth, $subsonly);
        }
        else
        {
            $childforumbits = '';
        }

REPLACE with THIS (NOTE: New Code is highlighted in red ... )

if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'index' AND $forum['subforumcolumns'] != 1 AND ($subsonly OR $depth < MAXFORUMDEPTH))
        {
            $childforumbits = construct_forum_columns($forum['forumid'], $forum['subforumcolumns']);
        }
        else if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'tabforumhome' or 'index' AND $forum['subforumcolumns'] != 1 AND ($subsonly OR $depth < MAXFORUMDEPTH))
        {
            $childforumbits = construct_forum_columns($forum['forumid'], $forum['subforumcolumns']);
        }
        else if ($subsonly)
        {
            $childforumbits = construct_forum_bit($forum['forumid'], 1, $subsonly);
        }
        else if ($depth < MAXFORUMDEPTH)
        {
            $childforumbits = construct_forum_bit($forum['forumid'], $depth, $subsonly);
        }
        else
        {
            $childforumbits = '';
        }

THEN CHECK/EDIT your forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost Template

NOTE: You should have this step already done if you installed both properly..

NOTE: Red Highlite = TFH Code Green Highlite= Forums arranged in columns on forumhome Code Black Code = Default vB (yours might be slightly different if you have a custom style, however, the colored stuff HAS to be exact) ..

<if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == 'tabforumhome' AND in_array($forum['forumid'], $GLOBALS[tabcats])) OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'forumdisplay'">
<tbody>
    <tr>
        <td class="tcat" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions[showmoderatorcolumn]">6<else />5</if>">
            <if condition="$childforumbits">
            <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumbit_$forumid')"><img id="collapseimg_forumbit_$forumid" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat{$collapseimg_forumid}.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
            </if>
            <a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]">$forum[title]</a>
            <if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if>
            <if condition="$show['subforums']"><div class="smallfont"><strong>$vbphrase[subforums]</strong>: $forum[subforums]</div></if>
        </td>
    </tr>
</tbody>

<if condition="$childforumbits">
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumbit_$forumid" style="{$collapseobj_forumid}">
<if condition="$forum['subforumcolumns'] > 1">
    <tr>
        <td class="alt1" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions[showmoderatorcolumn]">6<else />5</if>">
<table style="border: none; width: 100%;">
            $childforumbits
</table>
        </td>
    </tr>
<else />
    $childforumbits
</if>
</tbody>
</if>
</if>

This works fine on both default vB and with Custom styles (I tested both this AM)

Wow dude, thank you very much! Much appreciated. I've been messing with that php code for quite some time now and didn't realize I had to add another block of else/if. Instead I was modifying the first if statement.

Anyway, here's a quick question. Currently we have the old version of your tabbed hack and it works just fine. I'm not planning on installing the AJAX one just yet. Anyway, are the template edits you posted above for the AJAX version?
