It doesn't really look much different than the 2-column vBa cmps.
Nice mod tho.

True. My only misgiving is that I don't see an option for 3 columns, only 2.

If 3 columns is an option, I would probably try it.

Hello

It's possible to rename "blhome.php" in "index.php" ?

Gio~Logist · #15 02-05-2009, 07:14 PM

Thanks for the clarification Nex. Anyway, the product has already begun the upgrade process and you can see the updates live on the website. Enough talk about that.

Features Coming For Blog-Like Homepage:
Load categories right on Homepage

Also, for those of you who mistake "issues" with "suggestions", here's a bit of clarification just so that this miscommunication doesn't happen again.

And if you take a look at the response time, you'll see that suggestions are usually implemented immediately if we agree

Don't be a hypocrite.

He was replying to a member's post when he first mentioned it, the same way he had replied to you. So no, he's not being a hypocrite.

The update was made instantly and your ticket was handled. Please use the website from this point on.
