It looks you have a block that doesn't related to the categories. Take it out from the categories' container.

Just a note it says "Not Supported" for vb 4.2 but I installed and it does work.
Also, if you do use this it will look better with a fluid style.

I would love to see this in VB5!

Works perfect @ 4.2

I wish just selected categories enable this hack

First of all: Works with latest Version and looks great @ 1600x900. I can resize the screen but when reaching something around 600px, some parts overlap. Thats a problem at some mobiles I think (if mobile style not in use).

What I don?t like is that I have no chance to decide, what categories are on the right or left side. I can not change the order to decide this and there is no option for that.

I read that you will add this option and I love to be informed of it.

For an future update, it would be a nice addition not to have categories on left/right but to have forums in categories on left/right under each categorie. So something like an inner two column model.

Great work so far, hope you will continue it

Thanks for this very nice mod

Ok I have to correct this.... sry.

When creating a new thread in one of the slitted categories, I get:

PHP Code:


			
Warnung: Function split() is deprecated in ..../newthread.php(77) : eval()'d code (Zeile 22)

But this seems not to be an error of your mod

How would I exclude some categories?

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