I was wondering were would I find the template to edit how a threads title is shown. I wont to make them all a h2 and then make post titles h3.

To find the template - vboptions > General Settings > Add Template Name in HTML Comments > set to Yes . Then go back to your page and view the source code and you will see the name of the template called around your part of the code. Sometimes the template is the one mentioned at the very top of the page source.

got it thanks lynne your the best. wait does this allow me to change how the title is displayed? I wanna wrap the title in <h2></h2> tags.

Well, if you find the template, then just go into the template and edit it to put the <h2> tags around it. But beware that default <h2> tags have a height that I've seen some users then come back here and complain about ("my background image doesn't look right anymore!"). I suppose the other option is to look in the code and modify it there with either a plugin or code change.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
