      That will ruin the sub-forums above that. Those settings are global, I don't think you can do what you want without a mod.

        Setting a forum to "0" only affects that particular forum

          I do not hide the sub forum
          I do not want to hide all sub forums

          I just want the sub forum will not be displayed on the primary forum.

          I have many subforums but I have a category
          where they want to show the sub forums and
          which to display the sub forums have to come first in the forum

                I hope that in a forum (one forum category) not display the sub forums in the primary forum.

                  That does not make any sense,why would you create a sub forum to a category( primary forum) and not want it displayed.

                    because there will have less relevant content in my forum
                    General topics will not have much to do with the subject matter of my forum

                    But I found a solution
                    but I'm not convinced at all


                    Mark forum as inactive

                    Mark Board as inactive with all its sub forums. hiding
                    and then create a category and a forum that contains the shortcut

                    so with the click on the shortcut entered the hidden forum and see all sub forums

                    or give me another option?

                      These are all in "options" and are global:

                      Depth of Forums - Forum Home = 2
                      Depth of Forums - Forum Display = 1
                      Sub-Forums depth = 1

                      Where would you set a single forum to "0" as you are saying.

                        I am totally confused , the original question was..."not to show sub forums within a category or forum", since a category is a forum not acting as a forum then for a sub forum not to be displayed you set display to "0".........................where's my shrink !

                          Ok let me take a shot at this.
                          Forum A has X subforums and displays the name of the subforums.
                          Forum B has X subforums and Doesn't display the name of the subforums.
                          All on the same forum home page.
                          That's what I think he's after.
                          ...

                            It is exactly what I want.
                            that in:

                            Forum A: Display the name of the sub forums
                            Forum B: do not display the name of the sub forums

                            Everything in the home page of the Forum

                            Any Idea?
