Thanks nerbert for sharing the code.

I will give it a try and see if it works.

Cheers

P.s: where and how do I use this code?? as a plugin? if yes, then what hook should I use with??

It looks like it uses $vbulletin->forumcache, so maybe near the beginning you could delete the forums you don't want to display from $vbulletin->forumcache. You said you don't want to use mods, but it might be possible to do that in a plugin using hook forumhome_start. You could check for a parameter and adjust forumcache accordingly.

But I haven't actually tried this and sometimes you run in to things that don't work like you hoped, as I'm sure you know.

Thanks man, kh99

I wanted to make each forum in an independent page because my forums are a lot and each has many sub-forums. so if I made each set of forums in one page, it will be easier for readers and visitors to understand what's going easily.

ok, if copying forum.php is a lot easier, then what code do I have to change in the new .php file... is it this code:

PHP Code:

foreach ($parentlist AS $forumID)
    {
        $forumTitle =& $vbulletin->forumcache["$forumID"]['title'];
        $navbits[fetch_seo_url('forum', array('forumid' => $forumID, 'title' => $forumTitle))] = $forumTitle;
    } 


HOW?? I have no clue how to start...!!

any idea??
