Does this work any differently than the Cyb SubForum hack already available?

Your width seems very narrow... May also be a problem with non-english... Can you try turning all the formatting off and then do No change, Formatting Only, 1 column, then 2, etc (trying with a couple of short named Sub-Forums). PM me the screen-shots and I'll see what I can figure out.

I would like to just display subforum Y, without listing its 50 subforums.
- Threads
I have similar, but I want them shown, so I use 4 columns ... Anyway... An extra option of "Forums in which to hide SubForums" or possibly a "Max number of Sub-Forums to display" would do the job?

Similar but most definitely not the same... You may note that I credit Cybernetec for the idea & inspiration. I tried his but the big problem for me was that it did ALL or NOTHING. I wanted some forums with 1 column, some with 2, some with 4 and others simply formatted. I offered my suggestions and even sent him adjustments to his to make it almost what I needed. As I received no response, I simply did it all myself. If you were to compare the code from both you would be hard pressed to find any similarities... In fact, his logic/methods and mine are very different.

I'll leave the functional comparison up to you... Whatever works for you is ok by me.

Make sure you select an option up the top (even if it is just "apply formatting") and then make sure the "Separator to use between SubForum" is cleared

There's heap of options, give them a try, you can simply disable/uninstall if you're not happy with the results!

Is there any way to get this hack to follow the style? I've got quite a few different user selectable styles and it would be nice if the hack used the styles instead of the colors setup in the options.

You can remove the color definition from the options (I simply put that in as an example). You can of course then put in styles references instead ;-)

Yep... figured that out as soon as I opened my big mouth up.

Thanks for the great mod... it was exactly what we've been looking for.

If this could be applied to child forums, then yes.
