[nike.stars]

any idea why this add-on doesn't work on vbseo skin?

[Hannan]

Thanks, It's nice MOD

[Mum]

have it up and working on 3.7.0 with several sub forums - check it out if you like to see how well it works!

[Quantnet]

still can't get the new version to work on 3.7
I had it working on 3.6.8
I set sub forum depth to 1

[Leo Brazil]

Does anyone here is using this mod combined with Forumhome Category Spacing ?

If I try to use them together mess up with my board, that's because both of them share some templates.

Maybe someone here uses both and found a solution for.

Cheers

My forumhome is perfect just like was supposed to be. But on sub forums pages The first sub forums are showed OK but the last ones on the page completely messed up.

Have you change something to work with or just both original mods ?

Tks

[Sakai Ray]

Thanks for the hack.

Hi, first off, just wanted to say thank you for the mod, perfect for my use but I do have a slight problem.

Info:
vBulletin v3.7.1
Cyb-SubForum Manager v2.5 (4 columns)
Firefox v2.0.0.14
No other mods on the ForumHome template.

I finally did the first post on the forum and noticed the forums are breaking off the ForumHome page. I went through the mods I have installed and disabled them all and then went through 1 by 1 and enabled them individually until I came across the one causing the problem. Unfortunately it was this mod. I've enclosed a screen shot and circled the break, post causing the break and some of the subforums so you can get an overview of what I'm seeing.

Do you know what would be causing that? What do I need to look for to modify so I can fix?

Any assistance would be great, thanks

Update: Setting on 2 cols makes the page look correct.
