This is a template mod!

[Boofo]

Is there a template hack section here? If so, then I'm sorry and can the mods please move it to there. ;)

[Littlebit]

No not yet - waiting on the decision on that one from the higher powers :)

Is there a way to also remove the on and off icon just for links as well?

How would this be accomplished inside of a forum? (where they would be sub forums except they are actually links....)

Yes, there is. I did that to my site after I released this. If you want to know how to do it, contact me and I will give you the code. ;)

It should be fairly easy. All you are doing is looking for a linked forum. If it finds it then it runs the code. If it does not find it, then it runs the regular code. I don't have any link sub-forums set up yet, but I will set a couple up and see if I need to change anything in the code for it, ok? ;)

I installed but the link doesnt show the # of hits like in your screenshot?

Thanks for the great work!

[Boofo]

You have to install the forum links hack to get the link part to work. I forgot to take that out of the code. Sorry about that. You can find that hack here, I think, on vb.org. ;) Otherwise, just take out that part of the code and it wil work just fine. ;)

I'm blind. I can't see the difference between before and after. I have no idea what this hack does.

[Boofo]

I use it with RC2 just fine. ;)

Total Commander Home Page (Hits: 26)

Notice that that is a linked forum and it doesn't have the lastposter, thread or posts columns. ;)

Thank you, sir. I appreciate hearing that once in a while. It makes me feel it's worthwhile to do these hacks. ;)

Nice one.
How do you get rid of the dashes in the subforum?

[HiDeo]

Nice modification thanks !

[Boofo]

[Jenta]

the thing that confuses everyone, including me, is the image has the mouse pointer on a regular forum and the link forum icons are diff
