Removing the Post and Thread count columns.



This is what we want to achieve:

You can see an example here


Removing the columns


The different snippets of code might differ from style to style. I'm writing this basing it on my own (VBStyle's Element), but you have to pay close attention and focus on the code in bold. You'll identify the snippets quickly that way.

FORUMDISPLAY

Find
Code:
<td class="thead">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$vbphrase[threads]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$vbphrase[posts]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>
Comment it or remove it. (How to comment? wrap the code between <!-- and -->)

forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost

Find
Code:
<td class="thead">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$vbphrase[threads]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$vbphrase[posts]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>
Comment it or remove it.

forumhome_forumbit_level1_post

Find
Code:
<td class="alt2"><if condition="$forum[link] != ''">&nbsp;<else />$forum[threadcount]</if></td>
<td class="alt1"><if condition="$forum[link] != ''">&nbsp;<else />$forum[replycount]</if></td>
Comment it or remove it.

forumhome_forumbit_level2_post

Find

Code:
<td class="alt1" width="80"><if condition="$forum[link] != ''">&nbsp;<else />$forum[threadcount]</if></td>
<td class="alt2" width="80"><if condition="$forum[link] != ''">&nbsp;<else />$forum[replycount]</if></td>
Comment it or remove it.

================================================== ====
Adding the counts below the forum description

Now you might or might not want to display that information. If you do, keep reading.
Edit the following templates

forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost

Find
Code:
<if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if>
Add below:

HTML Code:
<div class="smallfont forumcount"><strong>{$vbphrase[threads]}:</strong> $forum[threadcount] | <strong>{$vbphrase[posts]}:</strong> $forum[replycount]</div>
forumhome_forumbit_level2_post

Find
Code:
<if condition="$show['subforums']"><div class="smallfont" style="margin-top:$stylevar[cellpadding]px">$forum[subforums]</div></if>
Add above:

HTML Code:
<div class="smallfont forumcount"><strong>{$vbphrase[threads]}:</strong> $forum[threadcount] | <strong>{$vbphrase[posts]}:</strong> $forum[replycount]</div>
================================================== ====
A bit of styling

If you test now, maybe you feel the counts we added are not separated enough from the description and subforums.

If that's your case, go to the style administration page, go to your style's "All style options" and select Main CSS.

Go to the very bottom, where it says Advanced Users:. To the very bottom of the second textarea, add:

HTML Code:
.forumcount {
 margin: 3px 0;
}
You might want to change the font styling, colors, etc. You can do that there. For example

HTML Code:
.forumcount {
 margin: 3px 0;
 color: #333;
 font-size: 10px;
}
Post any questions here. You can even post your style's template content if you're confused as to where to edit or add code.

I tried to link the picture without luck. It's rewriting my link in an attempt to resize the picture I guess.

How about just re-adding the link?

This is a great idea... i've utilized it on my site, THANK YOU!

Question: is that site in the example link yours? It's very nicely done.
If it is, may I ask you about some of the mods you have installed?

Works nicely. I found in 3.6.8 there was no code to modify in forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
