the last post info is parsed, so you can add it to the template yourself if you want to

for a shorter description find this:

PHP Code:

            if (!$vboptions['showforumdescription'])
            { // blank forum description if set to not show
                $forum['description'] = '';
            } 


and below add:

PHP Code:

                $forum['description'] = substr($forum['description'], 0, 50); 


to just get the first 50 chars of a description
