Forums arranged in columns on forumhome

As requested several times, this hack allows you to arrange forums on forumhome in xx columns instead of just one per row as it is in standart vb3.

Look at the screenshot to know what i mean

The design is changeable in the templates of course

I've tested it, and it should work, but as i don't use it myself, i cannot do a longtime test, so if you find any bugs, report them

You can apply the changes to forumdisplay as well if wanted

is there a place that you guys go to to get your icons? some of you have great icons for this hack. Any idea where I might be able to get icons dealing with music?

how do I change the top line to read "Forum" "Posts" Forum" Posts" and be lined up where they are supposed to go. Also, how do I center the "Audio Section" ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@H2k: please do not bump you own questions!

well, it looks like you have not done the template changes, or changed the wrong templates. depending on if you allow posting in categories as well, you need to edit level1_post instead of _nopost

That website customised the hack to achieve that layout themselves. Support cannot be given since it is not a part of the default package that is being supported in this thread.

You should try and play around with the templates yourself to achieve the desired look, either that or hire someone to do something similar for you.. Either way, it's unlikely that any help for achieving that design will be obtained from this thread..

since no one knows, can someone at least tell me where the "Forum Last Post Threads Posts" template is and I'll try to change it myself?

which version of this hack do you have installed?

I think this was a "bug" in an earlier version?!

@Takamine: i think you are searching for the FORUMHOME template

[Schwarze Katze]

I don't know why, but it won't work with me
Works fine on level2_nopost but not at all on level1_nopost.
Ideas?

[Xenon]

on level1 forums cannot work, as those have -1 as parent forum, and you cannot say those should be in columns

or i completely missread what you ment

[german] was genau willst du machen, das erste bild sieht doch richtig aus, beim zweiten bild siehts eher so aus, als w?rde das falsch template irgendwo aufgerufen[/german]

[Schwarze Katze]

o.O
Okay, it's pretty easy to missread this.

I changed the level1_nopost according to the instructions. But it won't work properly. (pic 1)
I also changed level2_nopost and it work's fine with that one. (pic 2)

I played around a bit and I think it's a problem on my side. Well, it definitely is.
I want the columns to appear on forum home and there -> http://www.comicforum.de/forumdisplay.php?f=1 , which is like the "second level" of our board.
It actually works on forumhome (for both level1 and level2).
