    [Forum] How To Hide Sub-Forums From Forum Main Page?

    We have one forum with over a hundred sub-forums.

    How can we hide the sub forums in that one particular forum, from the front page?

    Is this possible with a simple edit of code?

    Also, will removing them from the forum main page affect SEO at all?

    Thank you so much.

    You can change the depth of the forums that appear here:

    AdminCP > Settings > Options > Forum Listings Display Options

    Change the first option there to '1' to only show the current and one level below.

    - Add Admin ability to auto-subscribe users to specific channel(s) (vB6)

      We understand how to do that for all forums, however the issue is we want to refrain one single sub forum from displaying on the forum home page, not all of them.

      Is this possible?

      Thank you.

        Only via a custom plugin, which would not be hard.
        Hook? forumbit_subforumbit
