Forums arranged in columns on forumhome

As requested several times, this hack allows you to arrange forums on forumhome in xx columns instead of just one per row as it now.

You have to set up a new category(s). All direct subforums to this category(s) will be arranged in columns.
It can be very usefull if you have very much Subforums, so you haven't to scroll as much as you have before

Newest Version: 1.21
Known Bugs: none

Design can be changed in templates..

it is mainly a template modification.

you just have to edit the colforum tablebit and ad $forum[postcount] or $forum[threadcount] into the needed positions

um... Xenon... I got a problem here... you can see it here: http://www.ffindo.com/vbb

I edited the template so that it will not include forum's title and add the descriptions variable only.

I added the description of each forums via admin panel (of course) with html to show an image...

everthing was working fine... until I added the 9th forum, which is 'Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles' on my board (ffindo.com/vB), the cell width changed, the right cell and left cell is not even. Please see it here: http://www.ffindo.com/vbb

I used this very same code to add images on description for all:

<img border="1" src="image.jpg" width="300" height="75">

I don't think the code above affect the cell/table, because it only goes 'weird' when I added the 9th forums.

Then after that what I do is deleting some of the still empty forums, and still the cell width is not even.

Then I add the forums again, still, its most likely will not go back to normal one.

Hope you can understand my explanation, can you help Xenon?

Thanks a lot.

[Xenon]

be sure you have this:

<td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}" valign="top" $width>

in your template.

this is the most important part.

but i cannot help you more, as i don't have vb2 boards anymore, and also don't have the hacks anymore to tra things out

Thank you very much Xenon... its working now

[Xenon]
