I am pretty sure that is within the language file, if you do a find for 'board index' and change to forum.

They won't show forums that users don't have permissions to view, maybe you are logged in as admin and seeing them? Try logging out and viewing the feed again as a guest or as a reg member.

It looks like casper on that board has been kind enough to post the edits which surely is easy enough to follow and do, it's only one template file by the looks of it. Just edit that file but in glacier.

Sure just remove the code for the dropdown box and re-add the title and links like the others that are already listed, i.e. register, etc without the dropdown. Not sure you will have enough room at the top for all those links though.

Not 100% sure, think it could be a character setting in the database. Might be worth looking at phpbb.com, there will be the answer there.

The Ad's after first post; I think the one from STG is on here, but this will do it http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopi ... &t=1146135

hey billoo, i think Glacier style is subsilver2 based so have you looked a these instructions!?

Code: Select all

    #-----[ OPEN ]------------------------------------------
    # Allow multiple columns for Sub-Forum display on index
    #
    include/functions_display.php

    #
    #-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------
    #
          $s_subforums_list = array();
          foreach ($subforums_list as $subforum)
          {
             $s_subforums_list[] = '<a href="' . $subforum['link'] . '" class="subforum ' . (($subforum['unread']) ? 'unread' : 'read') . '" title="' . (($subforum['unread']) ? $user->lang['NEW_POSTS'] : $user->lang['NO_NEW_POSTS']) . '">' . $subforum['name'] . '</a>';
          }
          $s_subforums_list = (string) implode(', ', $s_subforums_list);
                 
                 
    #
    #-----[ REPLACE WITH ]------------------------------------------
    #
               //$s_subforums_list = array();
              $columns = 2; // how much columns
              $result = 0;
              $s_subforums_list = '<table><tr>';
              foreach ($subforums_list as $subforum)
              {
                 $s_subforums_list .= '<td><a href="' . $subforum['link'] . '" class="subforum ' . (($subforum['unread']) ? 'unread' : 'read') . '">' . $subforum['name'] . '</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>';
             
                 $result++;
                 if($result % $columns == 0)
                 {
                    $s_subforums_list .= '</tr><tr>';
                 }
              }
              $s_subforums_list .='</tr></table>';

Should be fine.
