It's really not a shame, cause vb4 "DID" come with subforum mod built in:

I assume that stephen wants something like sorky's sub-forum manager or cyb sub-forum manager. Both excellent modifications. IMO this functionality should be default in vbulletin.

I will not upgrade to vb4 before one of these is available.

You realize this is just css and with a few lines to your .css file, you get this:

It's not perfect, but I only spent about 20 minutes on it. I'm sure it could be cleaned up to be much better (I would have to look at some of the pre-set widths within there cuz if you make the browser window too small, the margins add up and push the li to the next row). Oh, to make the lists like that, I just googled "css lists put things side by side" and grabbed the first result.

Hi that is what i mean, i have lots of sub forums, IMO this should have been built in to VB4,

Lynne, sorry but to me you might as well be talking german, as I have no idea how to do what your suggesting.

As I said, I just grabbed the first link I got in google - Do You Want To Do That With CSS? - Multiple Column Lists . Making them columns actually took just a couple of copy/pastes. It was cleaning up the styling (the stupid shadows and the background and the :firstchild changes they made, etc.) that took the other 18 minutes. If I were to do it right, I'd then change the style of the boxes. But, I doubt I am doing that on my forum, so I've probably done all I will do with it (just wanted to prove to myself how easy it is to do it in css).

LOL you rock!

Wayne gave me a good idea to easily get it working just for one section also, so I just did a quick addition of the id tag to the css and got this:



Again, this is all done with JUST css - no template edits and no plugins. Take a look at the link I posted and grab firebug for use with firefox and you'll be all set to do it yourself.
