Separate Forum Categories
  • Version: 1.0.1
  • Author: RS_Jelle
  • Description: This mod separates each forum category on the forum home without any template edits. The category header is added to the top of each separated category. This will be done for ALL the styles on your forum. Have a look at the attached screenshot and everything will become clear if you don't get the point
  • Why? I created this mod because someone requested it.
  • Limitations:
    1. It's possible that this mod won't work properly on highly customized styles.
    2. The 'Last Post' column can be smaller than normal if the thread titles of the category forums are all small (you can only fix this with a template edit). Have a look at the attached screenshot to see this limitation.

Alright, I wanted to edit this myself without this md how would I be able to do it?

I'm trying to edit the entire category table as if it were all in one template, this is what I'm trying to do:

it would be great if this thread was updated to include the correct template changes as an option in the orginal post to achieve the forums/threads/posts below the category and have the columns aligned properly. there are so many different options and instructions contained in this thread it is confusing to know which template edits to follow.

I guess some of it depends on the style you use. Not all the code is located in the same place. And trying to do this with a product doesn't work perfectly, not without template edits. One of the biggest issues is the last post column. Depending on the length of the last post, that can throw it all out of whack. You can control the length of the last post info in the admin cp. But you won't need to do that if you set a fixed width for that column.

What I did was remove the threads and posts columns and added a fixed width to the last post column. But, most won't want to remove those 2 columns.

I have this installed and have got the spacing sorted, I've also managed to ge the forum title above the 'forum - last post - etc' row, and here's where the problem comes in: my first category title isn't showing correctely, it's showing whatever the title of the bottom forum is.

IE atm the title of my first category should be 'Welcome' but it's showing up as 'Feedback'. Feedback is the forum at the very bottom of the page in the final category, whatever I change the bottom forum to is what is displayed as the title of the first category.

Needless to say I'm confused! Can anyone help?

It happened after I altered the FORUMHOME template, if it helps this is what it looks like now...

Code:
$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
	<!-- no cache headers -->
	<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
	<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1" />
	<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache" />
	<!-- end no cache headers -->
	$headinclude
	<title><phrase 1="$vboptions[bbtitle]">$vbphrase[x_powered_by_vbulletin]</phrase></title>
</head>
<body>

How do we get "Forum" "Last Post" "Threads" "Posts" under category name on forumhome?
