Help Needed!!!

yup - still there.

[Kirk Y]

Hmm...

Okay, this is the last thing I can think of just to make sure we've covered all our bases.

Go to Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> Add New Style -> Name it whatever and then Save.

See if it shows on that new style. If it does, well I'm out of ideas..

[ChrisBaktis]

yup still there.

[Kirk Y]

Well I'm out of ideas. The only thing that remains is that it's something edited into one of your core files; if we've disabled plugins, installed a fresh theme, and are still seeing it - that has to be it.

Would you be against uploading fresh core files from your Members Area?

[ChrisBaktis]

not if it fixes the problem - what would I lose and what do I need to do?

[Kirk Y]

If you've made any physical modifications to your PHP files, you'll lose those.

Why don't you do this: back up your files real quick, then if we upload fresh ones and it doesn't fix it (I'd be really out of ideas) you can always go back to the ones you had before.

[ChrisBaktis]

I have not done much in the form of mods - however I just upgraded to the 3.68 and reuploaded all the files and what not and still have a problem...im at a loss for words on this...

Well i feel silly - im being told by vbulletin.com that IS the way the main forums are suppose to look. since that is the way there forums show then i believe them - so that leads me to this question....how can I put the catagory strip on top so it looks the way I think it should look.

[Kirk Y]

Ha, you're right... wow you're not the only one feeling silly.

In your forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost template, find:

$childforumbits

Add above:

<tr align="center">
      <td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
      <td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
      <td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
      <td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
      <td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
      <if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
      <td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
      </if>
    </tr>

Remove from your FORUMHOME template:

<tr align="center">
      <td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
      <td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
      <td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
      <td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
      <td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
      <if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
      <td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
      </if>
    </tr>

Not as bad as me - i was so ticked off this morning that I reinstalled the newest version wiping everything out...not that it is that bad since I had saved my style and had limited hacks installed...but none the less a bid pain in the butt

I want to thank you for all your help - although there was no problem to find a solution for you tried your hardest - Thanks for the new code so I can make things look right to me

Thanks again.
