Forum Home Enhancements - Remove 'Threads' and 'Posts' counts column from forumhome

I hate all the 'numbers' on the forumhome so I got rid of the column
This was done on a fixed width forum.

Back up these templates so If you stuff up... just paste them back and forget about it...


remove from forumhome_forumbit_level2_post template

<h4 class="nocss_label">{vb:rawphrase forum_statistics}:</h4>
		<ul class="forumstats td">
			<li>{vb:rawphrase threads}: {vb:raw forum.threadcount}</li>
			<li>{vb:rawphrase posts}: {vb:raw forum.replycount}</li>
		</ul>

adjust in forumbits.css template

for the forumtitle Info width section

.forumbit_post .foruminfo {
	width: 63%;
	min-width: 30%;
	float: {vb:stylevar left};
	clear: {vb:stylevar right};
	min-height: {vb:stylevar forumicon_size}; 
}

for the last post Info width section

.forumbit_post .forumrow .forumlastpost {
	width: 29%;
	font-size: {vb:stylevar mid_fontSize};
	padding-top: {vb:math {vb:stylevar padding}/2};
}

for the forumhead 'Last Post' title alignment

.forumbit_nopost .forumhead .forumtitle {
	font-size: {vb:stylevar font.fontSize};
	min-width: 67%;
}

*Adjust percentages (In bold red) to suit your width


Adjust in: Settings - Options - Forum Listings Display Options - Last Thread Title Maximum Displayed Characters
to suit 'Last Post' width

find

<span class="forumlastpost">

add after it

 

so it looks like this

<span class="forumlastpost"> &nbsp; {vb:rawphrase last_post}</span>

add another

 

to move it over another space

removing this line

<span class="forumlastpost"> &nbsp; {vb:rawphrase last_post}</span>

removes the word Last Post completely from forumhome
just in case u dont want the word Last Post :-)

I have the theme "Ideal". After fighting a couple of hours I found where the percentages change:

adjust in additional.css template

.forumbit_post .foruminfo
.forumbit_post .forumrow .forumlastpost
.forumbit_nopost .forumhead .forumtitle,

Can I simply remove the texts Threads/Posts? a previous mod already got rid of the columns for me but not the texts.

Find and Remove

PHP Code:

<span class="forumthreadpost">{vb:rawphrase threads_posts}&nbsp;</span> 


Or do as I did and just comment it out (like this)

PHP Code:

<!-- <span class="forumthreadpost">{vb:rawphrase threads_posts}&nbsp;</span> --> 


Hope that helps

Which template should I edit now for sub-forums? gotta get rid of the "Thread/Posts"

Sorry I am not getting below code in my site 3.7.1

<h4 class="nocss_label">{vb:rawphrase forum_statistics}:</h4>
<ul class="forumstats td">
<li>{vb:rawphrase threads}: {vb:raw forum.threadcount}</li>
<li>{vb:rawphrase posts}: {vb:raw forum.replycount}</li>
</ul>

These template edits are intended for vB 4.x, as template syntax is different in vB 3.x.

This doesn't work for 4.2.5
