You know in the main index page of the forum in the last post column? Is there any way to change how many characters/letters show on the last post link? As I need it to be less than it is currently.

Thanks

What exactly do you mean, lad?

Lass, not lad

lol My bad, lass.

Can you show me a preview? Text or image or something?

the bit in pink lol

it's in inc/functions_forumlist.php
find

	// Set up the last poster, last post thread id, last post subject and format appropriately
					$lastpost_profilelink = build_profile_link($lastpost_data['lastposter'], $lastpost_data['lastposteruid']);
					$lastposttid = $lastpost_data['lastposttid'];
					$lastpost_subject = $full_lastpost_subject = $parser->parse_badwords($lastpost_data['lastpostsubject']);
					if(my_strlen($lastpost_subject) > 25)
					{
						$lastpost_subject = my_substr($lastpost_subject, 0, 25) . "...";
					}

and change both 25 numbers to the value you need

oh thats brilliant, thank you very much
