Hide specific subforums on forumhome

[Pieper]

Hello,

Can't seem to find the right conditionals for hiding specific subforums ( not all). I want to hide it only on the forumhome and not one click down.

I add '<vb:if condition="!in_array($forumid, array(X))">' ( where X is the forumID) at the top of the forumhome_forumbit_level2_post template en close the template with '</vb:if>'

When I use the forumID from 'Test' (see screenshot)it's hiding correct. I can add several forumID's( separating them with commas). They are all hiding correct.

The problem is when I use a forumID from Test1, Test2 etc they are not hiding.

I'm pretty much a noob when it comes to conditionals so I hope someone can help me with this.

It's on VB 4.2.1

Thanks!

This is untested, but it should work in theory.

In the template forumhome_forumbit_level2_post look for this code:

                     <vb:if condition="$show['subforums']">
                        <div class="subforums">
                            <h4 class="subforumlistlabel">{vb:rawphrase subforums}:</h4>
                            <ol class="subforumlist commalist">
                                {vb:raw forum.subforums}
                            </ol>
                        </div>
                    </vb:if>

And change it to this:

                     <vb:if condition="$show['subforums'] AND !in_array($forum['forumid'],array(1,2,3,))">
                        <div class="subforums">
                            <h4 class="subforumlistlabel">{vb:rawphrase subforums}:</h4>
                            <ol class="subforumlist commalist">
                                {vb:raw forum.subforums}
                            </ol>
                        </div>
                    </vb:if>

Change the ID's 1,2,3 to your forums.

Thank you Ozzy

The problem with the solution you posted is that the code below is not in the forumhome_forumbit_level2_post template.

<vb:if condition="$show['subforums']">
<div class="subforums">
<h4 class="subforumlistlabel">{vb:rawphrase subforums}:</h4>
<ol class="subforumlist commalist">
{vb:raw forum.subforums}
</ol>
</div>
</vb:if>

The only thing with the condition 'subforums' is:

</vb:if>

<vb:if condition="$show['subforums']">

{vb:raw forum.subforums}

[ozzy47]

Strange, but none the less change this line:

<vb:if condition="$show['subforums']">

To this:

<vb:if condition="$show['subforums'] AND !in_array($forum['forumid'],array(1,2,3,))">

Great!

When I change that code and use the Test forumID the subs are gone on the forumhome!

Thank you again Ozzy!
