I think this hack works fine but I'm not sure. I'm not a php expert.
I recommend that you test (http://www.skelm.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18&mode=nested) this hack before you try this out.

* What does this hack do?
This hack will add another style of thread display like slashdot's or **-nuke's NESTED mode.
I think people either like this type of style or don't like it. But I think it wouldn't be a bad idea that we have more of a choice.

* Files to add: 1
mode_nested.gif

* Templates to modify: 3
SHOWTHREAD
postbit
modifyoptions

* Phrases to add: 3
nested
nested_mode
switch_to_nested_mode

KNOWN ISSUE : can't get post's depth correctly if that thread has multiple pages. (someone fix it please!)

Nice hack I've had people say they like that style so I might give them another option. :)

I don't think I would use the hack, but it has to be said again, freakin' nice layout man. ^_^

Wow, I am amazed at that layout... but I don't think your hack would work well at my site since it is of a fixed width. x_x

hmm.. conversation moves inexplicably to my style ???
Well, actually I don't have enough confidence about this hack.
But I think I can boast about what I've done on my style.

I found very suggestive thread at vbulletin.com
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&t=59931&highlight=nested+mode

Developer Kier said: I personally can't stand that(nested) view type.

Heavens!

Should I have posted vbtemplates instead? :nervous:

Would you elaborate it a little more, please?

I think it works as well. But don't set the depth limit so deep in your case.
BTW, great site. The only game I played in that category is Parappa The Rapper.

Kick! Punch! It's all in the mind!

By the way, any chance of you releasing that style? lol. :D

I like the hack, but i won't use it as i disabled threaded mode everywhere.

butmight i give a suggestion.

what about adding a collaps post feature there, so you can expand the tree you want to see, but leave the other collapsed (just an idea of course)

Your style is very unique and awesome. :) Did you make it yourself? I love it.

Oh yeah, and if you decide to sell it, people would buy it. ;)
