Separate Forum Categories
  • Version: 1.0.1
  • Author: RS_Jelle
  • Description: This mod separates each forum category on the forum home without any template edits. The category header is added to the top of each separated category. This will be done for ALL the styles on your forum. Have a look at the attached screenshot and everything will become clear if you don't get the point
  • Why? I created this mod because someone requested it.
  • Limitations:
    1. It's possible that this mod won't work properly on highly customized styles.
    2. The 'Last Post' column can be smaller than normal if the thread titles of the category forums are all small (you can only fix this with a template edit). Have a look at the attached screenshot to see this limitation.

Installation

I like it, I just don't like how it doesn't align all the forums so I uninstalled it.

It works but causes some alignment problems with some of the cells on the forum home. There is a way to fix it by editing templates, but no one has yet posted exactly how to do that.

Yea, looks nice, except one minor problem. Just like everyone else who has installed this, your columns are not aligned properly.

Same here.

Is there any way to fix that?

Here is what you want to do if you are having problems with misaligned columns.

Edit these 2 templates

- FORUMHOME
- forumhome_seperate_forumcats



Replace forumhome_seperate_forumcats with the following code:

Code:
</table>
<br />
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tbody>
      <td class="thead" width="5%">&nbsp;</td> 
      <td class="thead" width="70%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td> 
      <td class="thead" width="15%">$vbphrase[last_post]</td> 
      <td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[threads]</td> 
      <td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[posts]</td> 
      <if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']"> 
      <td class="thead" width="0%">$vbphrase[moderator]</td> 
      </if> 
</tbody>
In FORUMHOME

Look for this

Code:
<!-- main -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
and put this after

Code:
<tbody>
      <td class="thead" width="5%">&nbsp;</td> 
      <td class="thead" width="70%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td> 
      <td class="thead" width="15%">$vbphrase[last_post]</td> 
      <td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[threads]</td> 
      <td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[posts]</td> 
      <if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']"> 
      <td class="thead" width="0%">$vbphrase[moderator]</td> 
      </if> 
</tbody>
If you see a double row of the table headers, look for a set of code like the above and delete it. It should be right after the code you just added above.

Hi, did you apply the above fix to your forums? Because if you did, it ain't working. The columns are not aligned properly. I read that even with the above fix it may or may not align the columns. Part of the problem is the length of the last post title. It may be need to be shortened in the admin cp.
