MyBB Pro Sub-Forum Issue

[Robmeister89]

So the sub-forums don't appear correctly when there's multiple sub-forums in a forum.

To see what I mean please view my forum CFA Forums and check out the forum CFA Talk's sub-forums on the main page. They are separated way too much. Adding a third makes things worse.

How do I fix this?

[.m.]

navigate to open bootstrap.min.css style sheet of the theme and edit in advanced mode. around line 10 find code like below

.col-md-6 {
    width: 50%;
}

you can reduce that percentage to 20 or 25 or 33 and save the style sheet
remember hard refreshing your browser (eg. press CTRL + F5) on index page to see the changes

Where do I find the boostrap.min.css?

[.m.]

^ forum admin panel >> themes (left side column menu) >> MyBBPro --> bootstrap.min.css

[Robmeister89]

bootstrap.min.css isn't there..

I see boostrap-fixes.css but there's nothing remotely close to what you wrote above in that one..

[.m.]

^ oh! it is a file located in a subfolder of the theme images folder
~/images/MyBBPro/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css

you can edit it by using any text editor (notepad or notepad++ or through web host file manager)

Thanks! I got it fixed.

Wait... now the footer (board stats and legend) is messed up!

---

Well... looks as though the topics are all screwed up as well.. all of the user items (edit, quote, pm, etc.) are all messed up in the topics..

---

I went ahead and put that setting back to 50%.. is there any other possible way to fix the sub-forums issue?

[.m.]

hmm., can you navigate to forumbit_depth3 template of the theme (in Forum Bit Templates) and find code like below

<div class="col-md-6">{$statusicon}<a href="{$forum_url}" title="{$forum_viewers_text_plain}">{$forum['name']}</a></div>

change it to <div class="mycol-md-6m">{$statusicon}<a href="{$forum_url}" title="{$forum_viewers_text_plain}">{$forum['name']}</a></div>

and add below at the bottom of global.css of the theme

.mycol-md-6m {width: 25%;}

That worked great! In fact I like that better than them being side-by-side
