Hi guys,
this should be pretty simple. Currently, when looking at the column "last post" on the index page, the thread subjects are capped at 25 characters. It would be nice if this length could be increased or decreased.

Personally, I'd actually be happy if someone could just show me where in the code the last post/subject length is limited to 25 characters. A full mod would of course make future upgrades a bit more convenient.

Thanks!

I agree! Not too sure how to go about doing a plugin for this, but you can sure change the code.

In ./inc/functions_forumlist.php, find:

if(my_strlen($lastpost_subject) > 25)

Edit this, and make you change the below too so that it takes effect:

$lastpost_subject = my_substr($lastpost_subject, 0, 25)."...";

(I.E. both "25" need to be the same...)

Thanks Tom! Those were the lines I was looking for - I can't believe I didn't find them on my own.

Somebody should post this over at ideas. I can see this being added for 1.6.

Thanks For this

Thanks you. It helps
