Sorry...

[Nantrox]

perfect work again.. as usual *installed*

[DPtheGod]

Awesome work! I will have to install this for my forum storage section.

[Jedric]

Installed

If I could only have 1 mod on my forums, this would be it Cyb.

Great work.

[benny92000]

Thanks!

Cyb, Could you make a part to select a section or a forum you want to not show at all. As atm you can not actually just select a single forum by it self to completly hide>

What I wanted was this. On my forum I have sub forums avalable and wish to keep all forums the same. But on 1 forum I wish to hide all its sub forums to not show at all as i was using the idea that people will access the
sub forums by clicking on an image.
But I still wanted there post counts and new posts to appear as normal on the main forum

Was thinking this too. The option for a forum not to show subforums would be amazing.

[Amadeus Cho]

It would be perfect except all the sub-forums bunch up together..

[g0dfather1984]

I'm trying to hide certain sub forums but they won't disappear.

Any ideas?
