Hi everybody,

I recently installed MyBB 1.4.3 and I'm trying hard now to find a setting to solve the following issue:

I created two categories and some subforums within the second category:
category2 ->
   subforum1
   subforum2

category2 ->
   category3 ->
      subforum3
      subforum4
      subforum5

On my start page I only see the subforum1 and subforum2 listed in the way I want them to look - vertically.
Subforum3, 4 and 5 are listed horizontally. Can I change the display?

Any hints are appreciated.
Thanks in adavance

Can you printscreen?? I have a feeling they're displaying how they're meant to but I'll just check. Subforum 3, 4, and 5 are sub-forums - if you click category 3, you'll see them as you expect.
Yes, if I click on category3 they show up just like I want, but I want them to expand also on the start page.
You can make the list of subforums vertical like this:

Admin CP --> Templates & Style --> Templates --> *edit your template set* --> Forum Bit Templates --> forumbit_depth3
Replace the contents of the template with:
{$statusicon}<a href="{$forum_url}" title="{$forum_viewers_text}">{$forum['name']}</a><br />

Note: If you wanted to make each subforum on the index show an entire line with views, postcount, last post, etc. you will need a modification/plugin to do that.
Thanks a lot, I'll try this tonight...
