how can we make this mod for each forum ID, not global

Great mod, installed!
Would it be possible to exempt the "forumhome" though?

Can you add a new option and make the table "colapse" ?

Hey,

This is really awesome. It's exactly what I'm looking for.

I've installed it to test it however there is one thing keeping me from using it "out of the box".. Could you change the admincp values in the next version for the font colors to work with multiple skins? If I set a color scheme for one skin, it looks absolutely horrible for other skins (unless they are all bright or all dark skins)...

The only workaround right now is to edit the globalannouncement template in each of the skins I'm running (about 5-6) and I'd rather not do that..

EDIT: It was also mentioned here -> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....5&postcount=27 to which you said you'd look into it. Hope that's still on the 'ol to-do list!

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