Conditional To Hide Specific Sub-forum

[soletrader]

How do I hide one specific sub forum from displaying on the forum page?

I do not want to eliminate subforums altogether. Just need to have a specific forum not display its subforums.

Thanks.

<if condition="$forumid != 'x'">show normal code</if>

if the forum id does not equal x (replace with number of forum you want to hide) then show the sub forum. Meaning, if it is x, then it won't run the code.

Hi Floris,

Which template do I add the conditional in?

[Deidre]

Floris. I need the info as well. I'm not sure how to do it.

FORUMHOME template.

[soletrader]

Can you please explain this more specifically? Where in the forumhome template will the conditional appear?

Exactly what do you not want to appear? (Pics help )

All I am trying to do i hide a spefic subforum from appearing in the index page. In my website http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/ i want a specific forum to hide its subforum.

Do you need further explanation?

# find in template: forumhome_subforumbit_post
# add conditional statement around template
# replace 'X' with forum identification number

I see you have another thread with simular question, but about subforum in forumdisplay instead.

Thank you but that did not do the trick. Is there anything else I can do? Any help from vbulletin staff?

What are you filling in place of X? The above suggested edit should do the trick for you, please paste what you have here so we can take a look for you.

It goes the same with the other thread of yours, it does work as I have test this on unmodified and heavily modified style and does what you want it to do. 'Hide a specific subforum' just need to follow the instruction carefully.

You need to apply the change to forumhome_subforumbit_nopost as well.
