So if you don't want folders to show in your forumdisplay page.
[attachment=6373]

It cleans up the look of your forum if you don't want them there plus still gives your users an opportunity to find out what they mean.

1. Create an additional forum page. I called mine "Folder Legend" name yours what you'd like.
2. In the Folders Legend page move and organize your images to your liking with explanations of what each folder represents.

3. Log into your admin>Templates>Modify/Delete> Find Forum Display templates-then expand>Find forumdisplay_threadlist and replace that code with this one. The one below is the origianl code, it just has the folder images/text removed and a link to your new Folders Legend page. Just change the link to your folders legend page you created.
