Getting sub-forum posts to show up in main forum?

[Platinumgamer]

Hi,

This is a follow-up to this thread: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...-in-main-forum and a subsequent support ticket.

Basically, I took over running the community side of a gaming website in February and have been working on a few changes for the forums. The previous Administrator of the forums decided at some point along the line to change the functionality of vBulletin so that posts made in sub forums didn't show up as new in searches or from the index, you would literally need to subscribe to the sub-forum or browse every section of the forums in order to check for new posts. The needs of the forum have shifted, and the need for sub-forum posts to show up has prompted me to try and undo this change; however, I can't seem to do that.

The problem is I cannot find a vB.org related modification that features this functionality (none of the products installed on the forums match this, either), so it had to have been done by the previous administrator. He isn't around any longer, so I can't ask for a hand on that front, and as it's a code modification, vB.com won't provide support. Can anyone here give me a bit of a hand in returning things back to normal functionality?

Thanks for your time!
