    How To Put The Thread Starter In Its Own Column

    This requires several template edits. First go to your:

    Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Forum Display Templates -> FORUMDISPLAY

    Find this code. Remove the red code and add the blue code:

    Code:
    <table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
$announcebits
<tr>
	<if condition="$show['threadicons']">
		<td class="thead" colspan="2">&nbsp;</td>
	<else />
		<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
	</if>	
	<td class="thead" width="100%">
		<if condition="$show['threadratings']"><span style="float:$stylevar[right]"><a href="$sorturl&amp;order=desc&amp;sort=voteavg">$vbphrase[rating]</a> $sortarrow[voteavg]</span></if>
		<a href="$sorturl&amp;order=asc&amp;sort=title">$vbphrase[thread]</a> $sortarrow[title] [color=red]/
		<a href="$sorturl&amp;order=asc&amp;sort=postusername">$vbphrase[thread_starter]</a> $sortarrow[postusername][/color]
	</td>
	[color=blue]<td class="thead" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">
		<a href="$sorturl&amp;order=asc&amp;sort=postusername">$vbphrase[thread_starter]</a> $sortarrow[postusername]
	</td>[/color]
	<td class="thead" width="150" align="center" nowrap="nowrap"><span style="white-space:nowrap"><a href="$sorturl&amp;order=desc&amp;sort=lastpost">$vbphrase[last_post]</a> $sortarrow[lastpost]</span></td>
	<td class="thead" align="center" nowrap="nowrap"><span style="white-space:nowrap"><a href="$sorturl&amp;order=desc&amp;sort=replycount">$vbphrase[replies]</a> $sortarrow[replycount]</span></td>
	<td class="thead" align="center" nowrap="nowrap"><span style="white-space:nowrap"><a href="$sorturl&amp;order=desc&amp;sort=views">$vbphrase[views]</a> $sortarrow[views]</span></td>
</tr>
    Then go to this template:

    Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Threadbit Templates -> threadbit

    Find this code. Remove the red code and add the blue code:

    Code:
    		<div class="smallfont">
			<if condition="$show['threadratings'] AND $show['threadrating']"><span style="float:$stylevar[right]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_rating]/rating_$thread[rating].gif" border="0" alt="<phrase 1="$thread[votenum]" 2="$thread[voteavg]">$vbphrase[thread_rating_x_votes_y_average]</phrase>" /></span></if>
			[color=red]<if condition="$show['guestuser']">
				$thread[postusername]
			<else />
				<span style="cursor:pointer" onclick="window.open('member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$thread[postuserid]')">$thread[postusername]</span>
			</if>[/color]
		</div>
		
		<if condition="$show['unsubscribe']">
			<div class="smallfont">
				<a href="newreply.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newreply&amp;t=$thread[threadid]">$vbphrase[reply]</a> |
				<a href="subscription.php?$session[sessionurl]do=removesubscription&amp;return=ucp&amp;t=$thread[threadid]">$vbphrase[unsubscribe]</a>
			</div>
		</if>
		
	</td>

	[color=blue]<td class="alt2" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">
		<if condition="$show['guestuser']">
			$thread[postusername]
		<else />
			<a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$thread[postuserid]">$thread[postusername]</a>
		</if>
	</td>[/color]
	
	<if condition="$show['threadmoved']">
	<td class="alt2" align="center">-</td>
	<else />
	<td class="alt2" title="<phrase 1="$thread[replycount]" 2="$thread[views]">$vbphrase[replies_x_views_y]</phrase>">
		<div class="smallfont" style="text-align:$stylevar[right]; white-space:nowrap">
			$thread[lastpostdate] <if condition="!$show['detailedtime']"><span class="time">$thread[lastposttime]</span></if><br />
			<phrase 1="member.php?find=lastposter&amp;t=$thread[threadid]" 2="$thread[lastposter]">$vbphrase[by_x]</phrase>  <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]goto=lastpost&amp;t=$thread[threadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/lastpost.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_to_last_post]" border="0" /></a>
		</div>
	</td>
	</if>
	
	<if condition="$show['notificationtype']">
		<td class="alt1"><div class="smallfont">
			<label for="sub$subscribethread[$threadid]">$thread[notification]</label>
			<input type="hidden" name="oldemailupdate[$subscribethread[$threadid]]" id="oe_$subscribethread[$threadid]" value="$emailupdate[$threadid]" />
		</div></td>
		<td class="alt2"><input type="checkbox" name="deletebox[$subscribethread[$threadid]]" id="sub$subscribethread[$threadid]" value="yes" /></td>
	<else />
		<td class="alt1" align="center"><if condition="$show['threadmoved']">-<else /><a href="#" onclick="who($thread[threadid]); return false;">$thread[replycount]</a></if></td>
		<td class="alt2" align="center">$thread[views]</td>
			
		<if condition="$show['forumlink']">
			<td class="alt1"><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$thread[forumid]">$thread[forumtitle]</a></td>
		</if>
	</if>
</tr>
    Then in the same template (threadbit), find this code (at the bottom). Change the classes highlighted in blue. alt1 becomes alt2, and vice versa:

    Code:
    	<if condition="$show['threadmoved']">
	<td class="[color=blue]alt2[/color]" align="center">-</td>
	<else />
	<td class="[color=blue]alt2[/color]" title="<phrase 1="$thread[replycount]" 2="$thread[views]">$vbphrase[replies_x_views_y]</phrase>">
		<div class="smallfont" style="text-align:$stylevar[right]; white-space:nowrap">
			$thread[lastpostdate] <if condition="!$show['detailedtime']"><span class="time">$thread[lastposttime]</span></if><br />
			<phrase 1="member.php?find=lastposter&amp;t=$thread[threadid]" 2="$thread[lastposter]">$vbphrase[by_x]</phrase>  <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]goto=lastpost&amp;t=$thread[threadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/lastpost.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_to_last_post]" border="0" /></a>
		</div>
	</td>
	</if>
	
	<if condition="$show['notificationtype']">
		<td class="[color=blue]alt1[/color]"><div class="smallfont">
			<label for="sub$subscribethread[$threadid]">$thread[notification]</label>
			<input type="hidden" name="oldemailupdate[$subscribethread[$threadid]]" id="oe_$subscribethread[$threadid]" value="$emailupdate[$threadid]" />
		</div></td>
		<td class="[color=blue]alt2[/color]"><input type="checkbox" name="deletebox[$subscribethread[$threadid]]" id="sub$subscribethread[$threadid]" value="yes" /></td>
	<else />
		<td class="[color=blue]alt1[/color]" align="center"><if condition="$show['threadmoved']">-<else /><a href="#" onclick="who($thread[threadid]); return false;">$thread[replycount]</a></if></td>
		<td class="[color=blue]alt2[/color]" align="center">$thread[views]</td>
			
		<if condition="$show['forumlink']">
			<td class="[color=blue]alt1[/color]"><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$thread[forumid]">$thread[forumtitle]</a></td>
		</if>
	</if>
</tr>
    Then go to this template:

    Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Threadbit Templates -> threadbit_deleted

    Remove the red code and add the blue code:

    Code:
    <tr>
	<td class="alt1"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/thread$thread[statusicon].gif" alt="" /></td>
	
	<if condition="$show['threadicons']">
		<td class="alt2"><if condition="$show['threadicon']"><img src="$thread[threadiconpath]" alt="$thread[threadicontitle]" border="0" /><else />&nbsp;</if></td>
	</if>
	
	<td class="alt1">
		
		<div>
			<if condition="$show['viewthread']"><span style="float:$stylevar[right]" class="smallfont"><a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]">$vbphrase[view]</a></span></if>		
			$thread[typeprefix]
			<if condition="$show['threadtitle']"><em>$thread[threadtitle]</em></if>
		</div>
	
		<div class="smallfont">
			<if condition="$show['managethread']"><span style="float:$stylevar[right]"><a href="postings.php?$session[sessionurl]do=editthread&amp;t=$thread[threadid]">$vbphrase[manage]</a></span></if>
			[color=red]<if condition="$show['guestuser']">
				$thread[postusername]
			<else />
				<span style="cursor:pointer" onclick="window.open('member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$thread[postuserid]')">$thread[postusername]</span>
			</if>[/color]
		</div>
	</td>

	[color=blue]<td class="alt2" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">
		<if condition="$show['guestuser']">
			$thread[postusername]
		<else />
			<a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$thread[postuserid]">$thread[postusername]</a>
		</if>
	</td>[/color]
	
	<td class="alt2" colspan="3" align="center">
		<div class="smallfont"><phrase 1="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$thread[del_userid]" 2="$thread[del_username]">$vbphrase[thread_deleted_by_x]</phrase></div>
		<if condition="$show['deletereason']">
			<div class="smallfont">$vbphrase[reason]: <em>$thread[del_reason]</em></div>
		</if>
	</td>
</tr>
    Then at the bottom of that same template (threadbit_deleted), change alt2 to alt1:

    Code:
    	<td class="[color=blue]alt2[/color]" colspan="3" align="center">
		<div class="smallfont"><phrase 1="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$thread[del_userid]" 2="$thread[del_username]">$vbphrase[thread_deleted_by_x]</phrase></div>
		<if condition="$show['deletereason']">
			<div class="smallfont">$vbphrase[reason]: <em>$thread[del_reason]</em></div>
		</if>
	</td>
</tr>
    Then edit this template:

    Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Subscribed Thread Templates -> SUBSCRIBE

    Find this code. Remove the red code and add the blue code:

    Code:
    <tr>
	<td class="thead" colspan="2">&nbsp;</td>
	<td class="thead" width="100%">
		<a href="$sorturl&amp;order=asc&amp;sort=title">$vbphrase[thread]</a> $sortarrow[title] [color=red]/
		<a href="$sorturl&amp;order=asc&amp;sort=postusername">$vbphrase[thread_starter]</a> $sortarrow[postusername][/color]
	</td>
	[color=blue]<td class="thead" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">
		<a href="$sorturl&amp;order=asc&amp;sort=postusername">$vbphrase[thread_starter]</a> $sortarrow[postusername]
	</td>[/color]
	<td class="thead" width="150" align="center" nowrap="nowrap"><span style="white-space:nowrap"><a href="$sorturl&amp;order=desc&amp;sort=lastpost">$vbphrase[last_post]</a> $sortarrow[lastpost]</span></td>
	<!--<td class="thead" align="center" nowrap="nowrap"><a href="$sorturl&amp;order=desc&amp;sort=replycount">$vbphrase[replies]</a> $sortarrow[replycount]</td>-->
	<!--<td class="thead" align="center" nowrap="nowrap"><a href="$sorturl&amp;order=desc&amp;sort=views">$vbphrase[views]</a> $sortarrow[views]</td>-->
	<td class="thead">$vbphrase[notification]</td>
	<td class="thead"><input name="allbox" type="checkbox" value="Check All" title="$vbphrase[check_uncheck_all]" onClick="checkall(this.form);" /></td>
</tr>
    Now in that same template (SUBSCRIBE), there are 3 instances of this code:

    Code:
    colspan="6"
    Change all 3 instances to this:

    Code:
    colspan="7"
    Then edit this template:

    Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Search Templates -> search_results

    Find this code. Remove the red code and add the blue code:

    Code:
    <if condition="$search[showposts]">

</table>
$searchbits
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<else />

<tr>
	<td class="thead" colspan="2">&nbsp;</td>
	<td class="thead" width="75%">$vbphrase[thread] [color=red]/ $vbphrase[thread_starter][/color]</td>
	[color=blue]<td class="thead" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[thread_starter]</td>[/color]
	<td class="thead" width="150" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
	<td class="thead" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[replies]</td>
	<td class="thead" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[views]</td>
	<td class="thead" width="25%">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
</tr>
$searchbits

</if>
    All done.

      One thing I missed:

      Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Forum Display Templates -> forumdisplay_announcement

      Find this code. Change the 5 and 4 to 6 and 5:

      Code:
      <tr>
	<td class="alt1"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/announcement_$announcement[statusicon].gif" border="0" alt="$vbphrase[announcement]" /></td>
	<td class="alt2" colspan="<if condition="$show['threadicons']">[color=red]5[/color]<else />[color=red]4[/color]</if>">
		<div>
      This fixes a problem where announcements on the forumdisplay page don't span the entire table.

          In 3.0.4, the following template change was made:

          This causes a problem with my original instructions. If you are running 3.0.4 or later, then you need to edit this template:

          Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Search Templates -> search_results

          Change all 3 instances of:

          Code:
          colspan="7"
          ...to:

          Code:
          colspan="8"
          Thanks to SecTa for pointing this out in this thread.

              Another one I missed:

              Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> User Control Panel Templates -> USERCP

              Remove the red code, add the blue code:

              Code:
              		<tr class="thead">
		
			<if condition="$show['threadicons']">
				<td class="thead" colspan="2">&nbsp;</td>

				<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>

			[color=blue]<td class="thead" nowrap="nowrap">

			<td class="thead" width="150" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
			<td class="thead" align="center">$vbphrase[replies]</td>
			<td class="thead" align="center">$vbphrase[views]</td>
