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

Screenshots below.

Design can be changed in templates..

Ok, when I installed tis, I get a minor cosmetic problem (see below attachment), I am sure it is a template, but don't know how to fix it. Nice hack, BTW :banana:

no what we did was to have a hack that woudl give each forum it's own on/off images .. wich where incorporated into the template

Is this something that might be shared/released?


edited to add Very nice. I've it installed and am working on the tweakings.

@Rose it is already released as i know, but it's very old (i think 2.01 or so)

@Satan: Don't read my posts
Yes you can now make more categories as top categories of columned forums..

@Link: Can you describe it a bit more? I don't see something wrong on your screenshot...

INSERT INTO setting (settingid,settinggroupid,title,varname,value,description,optioncode,displayorder) VALUES (NULL,5,'Parent forums column arranged subforums','columnparent','0','Choose a Parent Forumid. All Subforums will be displayed in column arrangement (seperat with spaces)','','8')

INSERT INTO setting (settingid,settinggroupid,title,varname,value,description,optioncode,displayorder) VALUES (NULL,5,'Display Forum Columns','forumcols','4','','','9')

mhhhh ich habe das jetzt mal so in die Datenbank reingemacht. Ich gehe davon aus das es 2 einzelne sind.
Aber bei mir im Board ist keine Ver?nderug zu sehen. Wo und wie gebe ich das ein?

Allerdings finde ich das was ich eingegeben habe in der Datenbank nicht wieder.
Sorry aber ich bin ein neuling.


In Englisch:
mhhhh I clean-made now times in such a way into the data base. I go of it out of it 2 particulars am. But with me in the board no Veraenderug is to be seen. Where and how do I enter?

However I find which I entered in the data base not again. Sorry however I is a beginner
:cry:

you should use a better translating program

you'll find these settings in your Admin-CP > vbulletin options > Forumhome section...

[german]Ich will nicht unh?flich scheinen, aber supportfragen kannst du bei vbulletin-germany.com in deutsch fragen. Mir pers?nlich isses ja wurscht, ob man mich hier was in deutsch fragt, aber da es ein englisches board ist kommt das einfach hier nicht so gut an

Wie auch immer, als antwort: Du findest die Sachen dann in deinem Admin-CP bei den forenoptionen[/german]

hey, looks good this extra categorie

[mikey8270]

its not working for me....i can do the sql quesries and everything else...but i dont get the fields in my admin cp...

[Link14716]

Yea, Xenon, it is minor and of little importance. The border of the between the catagory image and the forums aranged in colums is twice as thick as the normal ones. Like I said little importance, but :banana:

[Xenon]

ahh i see...
hmm, will see what i can do, perhaps it's just a small template mod...

but as said not the importantst thing on my to do list

@mikey: you must have done something wrong, these queries are produced directly from the vb admin cp (settings.php)
