[Forum] Question about forums and sub forums

[Breakthecycle2]

OK, so on my site here (no way near done, just trying to figure this out). Under HTC there are like 10 sub forums, how do I get all those just under HTC?

You need to make HTC a category then the others fall under that. Under Posting Options make sure that Act as Forum is set to no. Then make sure that the HTC category is set to No One under the setting Parent Forum.

Hmm...How do I make HTC a category?

[Robbiefritz]

Go to AdminCP > Forum Manager> select HTC
new screen opens

First thing that you want to do is change the drop box for Parent Forum to no one

then scroll down and under Posting Options find

Act as Forum
(Will act as category if no)

and set it to NO

Is that what you were after?

Thanks!!!!

[Robbiefritz]

You are welcome.

OK, one more question...is there a way to put them in alphabetical order?

[Robbiefritz]

You can do that by changing the display order. Go to Forum Manager and put them in the order that you want them in.

I usually go in increments of 10 or so to leave room if I want to insert something.

Thanks again!!!!
