vBulletin Mods

Thanks for posting that - It shows very nicely how the multiple SubForum columns can be utilized.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to invite other users to share samples of how they have used this Plug-In ;)

not sure if you understood me, doesnt work, anyway thx. :down:

Sorry to hear that - If you want to PM me a URL and access to your test server, I'm more than happy to have a quick look for you.

1.6.1 produces invalid xhtml.

eg

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

a table cannot be contained within a span. the span needs to be closed.

looks like

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

is not working properly.

Thanks for the clue - for XHTML a table cannot go within a span. I do close the span (so the code you highlighed is not the issue), just the fact that I use a span around the table. I did this as I want the "SubForums:" text AND the table to disappear.

Good news is there is a very easy fix - edit lines 271 and 275 of my product XML file and change "span" to "div" (ignore the ").

I have updated a copy on my machine as a new 1.6.2 version with this change, but as it is so minor and the product actually works (even though it produces XHTML that is technically invalid) I won't publish a formal update at this point in time (unless everyone desperately wants one).

You might as well upload it or just add it to 1.6.1. I rather have valid xhtml

Hey Sorky Thanks for the update. Its working fine on my site. If anyone would like to see a live example of Sorky's SubForum Control you can check it out on myNGE.com

You can click on any of the main category tabs and you will see a show / hide button.

Change Log

1. Addition of a debug information option
2. Changed a span to a div to make the plug-in XHTML compliant
3. Other minor coding and commenting adjustments

Hey Sorky I just updated to 1.6.2 works great.

About the rss feed I remember I got that one a long time ago somewhere in the template mods section. I found it in my installed mods here is the one I use Rss Feed Icon for boards
I'm actually going to install your Rss Icon since yours is up to date and offers admin controls thanks for letting me know about it.

Yeah - I acknowledged kami as I got the icon from there ;)

Glad you like it :up:

Hello. I want to hide/disable the forum itself to only show the sub-forums. Where can I modify that, if exist?

Thanks, nice addon :up:

Nothing to do with this plug-in, but I can help anyway...

Change your Forum to a Category : "vBulletin Options" / "Forum manager" / <Chosen Forum> / "Act as Forum" = NO

Please add the function to display sub-forum moderators.

Thank you. With this function not showing properly in forumhome, but with "forum not open" seems better although not absolutely.

Greetings

You raise an interesting point Trotskid.

I would like to be able to have subcategories in a category. This is possible with the settings mentioned. But this will cause the category and sub-categories to become one ugly blue block on forum home, like Trotskid first screenshot shows. When you add several sub-categories this blue block becomes even larger and ugly.

Please add functionality to display sub-categories in a better way on forum home, while displaying the subcategories as normal categories on forumdisplay.
