That helps... This PlugIn doesn't (and wont) touch anything but the SubForum display.

That is not to say that another PlugIn could not be done to do what you are after - would take a bit of work cascading down through SubForums, but is definitely doable.

There is a lot of confusion here due to the way vBulletin refer to Forums, SubForums and Sub-SubForums. The first section in the display (which is known as the ForumList) is in reality showing a list of SubForums of the current Forum, however in the views of vBulletin they are Forums inside the current Forum. In vBulletin terms, SubForums exist as a layer below the ForumList and are displayed in the "SubForums: ......" section.

A simplistic view of this PlugIn is that it simply takes the "SubForums: ......" text and re-formats it and therefore cannot help with the issue you describe. Funnily enough, your mock-up is actually what you see in the forum above your current forum, which is where this PlugIn can do its magic.

As this PlugIn does not modify the actual ForumList section (just a small part of the contect) it cannot and it is not appropriate to have it help with what you need. You could consider modifying the forum display templates yourself or see if there is another PlugIn that would help in terms of a "Forum List Control"
