Install TMS and use the xml file I added above your post. I have that working on a 3.6.8 default skin.

I'm still set in my old ways and a bit timid about using TMS on top of my already manually edited templates.

Installed and loving it! I have tried the other Category Separator mods but I haven't found one that placed the Category Title above the forum section(as it should). This works beautifully and added a footer to each section. Very nice work!

I agree, this is the easiest, and makes the forumhome look great!

Hi,

How can I move "Mark forums read" bar from the bottom of the forumhome page and place it right after forums?

I'd like also to change the Threads and Posts column width. I tried this but is not working for me.

Am I missing something?

Very nice hack!!

Thanks!!!

It works on 3.6.8 sir

[Booost This]

Nice hack, one minor problem.

It also separates sub-categories in the forumdisplay.

I reverted my forumdisplay template back to the original to test to make sure that I didn't by mistake make the changes to forumdisplay instead of forumhome but it is still doing it.

How do you make it work just for the forumhome template? (index.php) and have no effect on forumdisplay (*.php)?

[BarryoBrien]

Does anyone know how to fix the alignment of the forums www.websiteforumz.com looks ok on firefox just not on ie

[caribbeanxposur]

i'm having the same problem as you Booost This... it seperated the forumdisplay reverted and tried again just to make sure it wasnt an error on my part but it still seperates....
