    [HowTo] [3.0.3] Add 'Forum Info' to the forums!

    [HowTo] [3.0.3] Add 'Forum Info' to the forums!
    By: Floris - http://www.vBulletin-Fans.com/

    Description: This tutorial shows you how to remove the last 3 threads/posts/moderators columns to create more space (especially handy for cluthered fixed width forums) and put the data on a single row below the forums on forumhome.

    Example of how it looks: Check the screenshots, but should look like this:
    Forum Info: Threads: x - Posts: y - Viewers: z - Moderators: a,b,c

    Note: Moderators and Users viewing parts will only show if there is any data for it, so it won't display if the value is empty.

    Installation instructions:

    * Open the template FORUMHOME

    * Find this code and delete it:

    HTML Code:
    <td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
    <td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
    <if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
    <td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
    </if>
    * Save the FORUMHOME template.

    * Open the template: forumhome_forumbit_level2_post

    * Find this code and delete it:

    HTML Code:
    <td class="alt1">$forum[threadcount]</td>
    <td class="alt2">$forum[replycount]</td>
    <if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
    <td class="alt1"><div class="smallfont">$forum[moderators]&nbsp;</div></td>
    </if>
    * Now find this code:

    HTML Code:
    <if condition="$show['subforums']"><div class="smallfont" style="margin-top:$stylevar[cellpadding]px"><strong>$vbphrase[subforums]</strong>: $forum[subforums]</div></if>
    * Below this, on a new line, add this code:

    HTML Code:
    <div class="smallfont" style="margin-top:$stylevar[cellpadding]px"><span class="time">$vbphrase[forum_info]:</span> <if condition="$show['browsers']"><phrase 1="$forum[browsers]">$vbphrase[x_viewing]</phrase> -</if> $vbphrase[threads]: $forum[threadcount] - $vbphrase[posts]: $forum[replycount] <if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']"><if condition="$forum[moderators] == ''"><else />- $vbphrase[moderators]: $forum[moderators]</if></if></div>
    * Save the forumhome_forumbit_level2_post template

    * Now goto "search phrases" and find this phrase variable name: forum_info

    * Edit the phrase and change the phrase type from user tools to 'GLOBAL' from the MASTER language.

    NOTE: You may need to add
    $debug = '1';
    to your includes/config.php file (somewhere in the middle on a new line)
    (remove that line when done)

    * Save the phrase

    * Finally find this phrase variable name: x_viewing

    * Edit the phrase and change the phrase to this: (replace total content with..)

    Users viewing: {1}

    * Save the phrase x_viewing and you are DONE.

      I was talking to someone who helps me with vB and he said there should be a "Drop Down Menu" in the Phrase area, is something wrong here??

        Unless you use more than one language you can just go to that template forumhome_forumbit_level2_post and replace $vbphrase[forum_info] with "Forum Info:"

          Did you read the part about running the forum in debug?

                    I asked on vbulletin.org if i could re-create the skin, they said yes, and besides, its a child style, the coding im trying to do is to the vbulletin default style.

                      The first stage of code isn't found on my forumhome template either.

                      I'm using VB3.0.3 and trying to edit in the default style.

                      The template is showing as edited, I've not done much editing on it and don't know what i'm doing when I edit because I just follow the instructions.

                      Possibly the only edit was sigma chat.

                      Code:
                       
                      $stylevar[htmldoctype]
                      <html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">

                        Your template is obviously not default vBulletin.

                          Hi thanks for replying,

                          so to elaborate on your answer, does that mean that this customization will just not work full stop? It's more difficult? or somehow I have to disregard all my work and go and restore my forum to new?

                          I would prefer to have this look but as a newbie I want to get it with minimum hassle. I've only installed the chat and one child template and those were a challenge.

                            If your code does not match, the instructions simply aren't for that unique template. Try to read the code and understand it, then figure out how this applies to your already modified templates. What I make and release is made on a fresh 3.0.3 installation with default templates. The instructions are clear enough what 'code' to look for. Like, which link, text or phrase. And then what to modify or replace or delete to get the desired effect.

                              Hi again, I am almost there as I have managed to get the threads and posts count under each forum.

                              I am struggling to remove the threads and posts columns from the forum home page. I can't relate any of the code that's in my forumhome template to any on the parts that I should be removing.

                              I can repost my forumhome code if need be to try and see what I should take out to remove these now "empty" two columns.

                              Edit: also just noticed threads and post count still show in the last two columns on my hidden admin forum.
