Sub Categories

[aj2703]

Hi.

Firstly if this is in the wrong place please feel free to move.

I am playing with the Demo software and have created a few categories / sub categories. When trying to hide the sub cats it does not seem to work. I have gone into Admin CP / Options / Forum Listing Display Options and changed the top three options, Depth of Forums - Forum Home, Depth of Forums - Forum Display and Depth of Sub Forums to 0 but i can still see the sub cats..?

Any help is appreciated..

I assume we're talking about the VB4 Demo since those settings doesn't exist in VB5.

While testing this I noticed I did have to do a hard refresh (Hold down SHIFT key + Refresh) to see the changes take effect.

This is how I has my demo forum is setup:



And with the top 3 settings in Forum Display Listing Options set to 0, 0, 0 everything is hidden except the "Main Category" link on the forum home page.

Not sure if you can post a screen shot of the forums but if you can (maybe use an image host) I'll take a look if we have a similar setup.

Hi,

This is the demo option on your site [COLOR=#2A2A2A]vBulletin 5 Connect's Site Builder. As you can see the sub forums still show.

So you are using the vBulletin 5 Connect Demo.

In Admin CP -> Settings -> Options -> Forum Listing Display options the options you mentioned (depth of sub-forums, etc...) should not exist because they aren't options in VB5.

This is what the VB5 Forum Listing Display Options page should look like:



Are you seeing something different?

That is what i see...

The demo version is out of date.

Sorry, those setting will be removed shortly, those options are no longer part of VB5. Demo is still Beta 24, I was using Beta 28.

Ok no worries.. :-)

Is there absolutely no way to collapse subcategories in vB5? Thanks.
