Full Version: Subforum to Forum Problem!
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Here is the situation:

I had a forum section on my site called "News". Only Admin's could post in it, but everyone could reply.

I also had a subforum of the News forum called "Public News" which anyone could post / reply in. Recently, I separated both, so that the Public News was a free standing forum, not a subforum. This has worked out ok, except that if anyone posts in the Public News forum, both the News forum and the Public News forum will display that post as the "Last Post". This does not happen if someone posts in the News forum.

I guess MyBB is still "thinking" that the Public News forum is a subforum of the News forum, but it is quite annoying!

If anyone could help it would be great!

Yay! Cheers MaRio and DennisTT!
I think i have a problem with my template.

Both codes are there but it keeps adding the sub-forum right under the parent forum with the recent posts, along with table issues.

When installing the plugin all my forums had the order number of "1". So I tried installing the fixparentlists.php plugin and nothing happened. I just manually reset all the forums back to their original order but i wish there was a way around this.

Can you help me with this?
can anyone help me?
It's probably a problem with one of the forumbit templates. Have you modified any of them (or were any of them modified in the template set you are using)?
I found that the forumbit_depth2_forum was modified

here is what I have:
