I don't think the ignore field is working - I add forums ID numbers (comma seperated) for it to not show subforums for but it still shows them.

This is not to hide sub-forums but to exclude them from arranging into columns.

Ah ok Great hack, thank you for your work - I love all of the Cyb stuff.

I have a question, however. I would like for the subforums table to shrunk (width-wise) - at the moment, using our fluid forum template there is a HUGE gap between the first and second column. How can I shrink the overall width of the area that the sub forums table is inserted into?

I think it will be a great future like:
Hide sub-forums from the main page (comma separated ID list)

Because if you have 10 sub-forums in some one forum it will be wonderfull to hide some of them from the main page.

Exactly what I'm looking for. Is it possible to implement?

I see no any sub-forum on you board. Check vBulletin Options > Forum Listings Display Options. Read hack notes.
