... own logo, own content, random content etc. Nice! I have it too on my vB3.8.11.

Some members say I have too many sub-forums, so I was wondering if it was possible to search only specific categories or display all the posts under one category while keeping them separate. It would be more of a convenience thing than anything.
Certainly it's possible! In at least two different ways:

1) using the conditional on each forum and/or usergroup and this on a forum by forum basis.

2) using this product or the equivalent for the most recent topics/messages on a forum by forum basis (in changing the variables) https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=201274

3)...

You can see it in action for a photo forum at https://vimeo.com/322127748 (sorry, it's in my first language). The latest topics/messages are in the table at the right side.
