Hi

On my forum we have a part dedicated to Musicians only. As per our administration agreement we cant have all forums/categories visible on index page so i did create link to that part.

Clicking on link u enter in musicians part

and it looks very ugly, if i can call it that. So confusing, unorganized hard to find for new users.

Is it possible to show this part same way forums and categories are displayed on index? Nice and neat

Thank you

You need to play with the settings in vboptions > forum listings display options > see the top three settings there.

Hi,
Tnx for answer Lynne
I did try that , whatever i change i will also mess up index then, this is not solution.

In simpler words i need that part of forum to look like index (just as separate forum index page)

Then you'll need to write a plugin to change that option if you are in forumid x. That's the only way I can think of to do it.

I was scared to get that answer, i thought about it before,.... but me and plugins , - i can only install/uninstall them

Set up a test forum and play with them a bit. They aren't as scary after you get to know them.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
