Hi,
I just found another way which don't know seems to me much easier but wondering if it makes load or its not proffissional than yours
here is what I have found
PHP Code:
$subforumsasda = construct_subforum_bit($forumid);
for($k=0; $k < sizeof($subforumsasda); $k++){
$nberoffosinside++;
}
in functions_forumlist.php added the above which is for each forum i construct the subforum and count the size of the array and loop through which appears to be no need to the loop
as this sizeof($subforumsasda) will be more than enough to get the value the advantage of I thought that it does the permission calculation for you automatically
Many thanks KH for your help I would appreciate your point of view and suggestion on which code I should use
yours or mine?
Thank you again

More simple code I have found just to help someone might need it
just added this
PHP Code:
$nberoffosinside = sizeof(construct_subforum_bit($forumid));
it does return the value that I wanted and does the permissions evaluation and everything and return the number of forums you only see

Here is another explaination as I designed a style changed the way to display the forums as boxes filled next each other once there is no space it does down using css inline box
I had problem when there is for example 4 sub forums then
3 will fill up and then one will come down
in this way the style will look no nice so I found that in each space I add adsense advert to make more money also make the style look fine
I had a problem when there is 5 forums I need google adsense advert with small size
when there is 4 forums I need with big size as two boxes will be empty in 4
3 boxes like following
BOX BOX BOX
AND ONE BOX THEN ADVERT NEXT TO IT WITH BIG SIZE
BOX AD VE R T
AND OTHER CASE
BOX BOX BOX
BOX BOX ADS
SMALL ADVERT HERE
TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM
I HAVE DONE THE FOLLOWING
PHP Code:
if( ((sizeof(construct_subforum_bit($forumid))) % 3) == 1 ) {
$nberoffosinside = true;
} else if ( ((sizeof(construct_subforum_bit($forumid))) % 3) == 2) {
$nberoffosinside = false;
}
using this variable nberoffosinside if it true display small advert
if it false display big advert and so on
I hope this could someone else looking for the solution
remember the code should be added in includes/functions_forumlist.php
where you can find the following
PHP Code:
// build the template for the current forum
paste the code below and go to your templates
forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost
using the variable with this way
<vb:if condition="{vb:raw nberoffosinside} == true">
big advert
<vb:else />
small advert
</vb:if>
Good luck everyone
thanks for your help

More concisely to do what I have done here is the instruction
go to includes folder in your forum root then functions_forumlist.php
search for
PHP Code:
// build the template for the current forum
add below it
PHP Code:
if( ((sizeof(construct_subforum_bit($forumid))) % 3) == 1 ) {
$nberoffosinside = 2;
} else if ( ((sizeof(construct_subforum_bit($forumid))) % 3) == 2) {
$nberoffosinside = 1;
}
to apply this on your templates need to register the nberoffosinside variable with following instructions
search for following
PHP Code:
$templater->register('forumid', $forumid);
add below it
PHP Code:
$templater->register('nberoffosinside', $nberoffosinside);
now go to your following templates
forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost
using this code you can display the big and small adverts accodingly
PHP Code:
<vb:if condition="$nberoffosinside == 2">big advert</vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$nberoffosinside == 1">small advert</vb:if>
this solution for the forumhome and you will need a solution for the forumdisplay to do so follow the next
open forumdisplay.php file in your main forum root
search for
PHP Code:
construct_forum_bit($foruminfo['forumid'])
below it add the following
PHP Code:
if( ((sizeof(construct_subforum_bit($forumid))) % 3) == 1 ) {
$numberinforums = 2;
} else if ( ((sizeof(construct_subforum_bit($forumid))) % 3) == 2) {
$numberinforums = 1;
}
samething to use this $numberinforums variable in forumdisplay template you will need to register it using the following
search for
PHP Code:
$templater->register('forumid', $forumid);
below it add
PHP Code:
$templater->register('numberinforums', $numberinforums);
note dont forget to save your files with the alteration
now go to forumdisplay template using this if statement
PHP Code:
<vb:if condition="$numberinforums == 2">big advert</vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$numberinforums == 1">small advert</vb:if>
you can display the adverts accordingly
hope it got cleared now more
Good luck everyone again
please KH point if there is something I have done incorrectly
Many thanks
