CSS - Sub-Forum-List in Columns · **Released**: 06-28-2005

For vb3.5.x --> vb3.6.x

Tested and working on Firefox, Safari and IE6.

What this does:
It converts the sub-forum-list into a unordered list, then by using CSS arranges the sub-forums into columns.

The columns are liquid - number of columns depends on browser-window-width or page width. The column width is set in the CSS.

Note that you need to enable sub-forums in your ACP.

3 CSS class definition added.
8 template edits.

See the zip for further instructions / full details.

Enjoy!

Update: v2.

Class attribute moved from <li> to <ul> element, and you now get full control through the stylesheet.
A clear:both style added below the list to constrict the floats, so that you can put stuff beneath the list.

Update:

Works for vb3.6.x with no changes.
Added .txt to textfile

I'm curious to how you can decide which categories to do it to or not too, like this site. Any help?

hpwilhelm,

SWEEEEET! THANK YOU!!

Now if just could find a mod for the main forum page to do the same thing (the page when you click the parent of the sub-forums...they still show up like regular forums, and I'm treating them as categories and just want a basic display without the "Last Post", "Threads", & "Posts" Columns...any ideas? thanks!)

*Clicks Install*

On forumhome it shows all subforums in one column after upgrade to 3.5.2
Any hints?

I didn't do anything and now everything is perfect again(2 columns).

Edit: it works again

Edit: one day later - not fixed

subforums show as one column on forum start page again

When you upgraded, did you revert all of your templates (if it recommended that you do so)? If not, you should probably do that, then redo the template changes.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
