In a thread view, the title bar of the browser has the BB name followed by the thread name. How can I put the forum name in between them? So in other words, my IE title bar would look like this:

JJR512.com Bulletin Board - Feedback - Test message -Microsoft Internet Explorer

Thanks!

In your showthread template, change:
<TITLE>$threadtitle - $bbtitle</title>
to:
<TITLE>$bbtitle -$categorytitle - $threadtitle</title>

Well, that's actually wrong. $categorytitle puts the name of the category up there, not the forum name.

But that gave me a clue to figure it out for myself. I looked in the forumview template to see how it was done there, and it's done with $forumtitle. So that's what I did, changed it to
<TITLE>$bbtitle - $forumtitle - $threadtitle</title>

Opps, glad you figured it out yourself.
