subforum style

[yzztik]

Is there a hack, or can someone write one that sets the styles of subforums to the one of its parent by default or unless you set it to something different?

Why not just set them manually..?

Or too many forums?

Yeah too many ... I mean I can do it ... was just curious if there was some easier way. I have 4 private forums with their own schemes and each of them have 3-4 subforums so thats like 10 forums ... its not a HUGE deal ... was just curious. Always looking to make my life easier lol

Open admin/forum.php and find

PHP Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE forum
                   SET
                     styleid='$styleset', title='".addslashes($title)."', description='".addslashes($description)."',
                     active='$isactive', displayorder='$displayorder', parentid='$parentid', parentlist=$parentlist,
                     allowposting='$allowposting', cancontainthreads='$cancontainthreads', daysprune='$daysprune',
                     newpostemail='".addslashes($newpostemail)."', newthreademail='".addslashes($newthreademail)."',
                     moderatenew='$moderatenew', allowhtml='$aallowhtmlcode', allowbbcode='$aallowbbcode',
                     allowimages='$aallowimgcode', allowsmilies='$aallowsmilies', allowicons='$aallowicons',
                     styleoverride='$styleoverride', allowratings='$allowratings', countposts='$countposts',
                     moderateattach='$moderateattach', storereply='$storereply', storethread='$storethread', minpostsperday='$minpostsperday' 
WHERE forumid='$forumid'"); 


Below, add

PHP Code:

    $DB_site->query("UPDATE forum SET styleid='$styleset', styleoverride='$styleoverride' WHERE parentid = '$forumid'"); 


Should work.
