Thank you, I was successful in changing the background color however I had difficulties in making the font smaller, I just got it by changing 'bigusername' to user name that worked.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction for this one.

Something you can try is replacing the existing line:
<div class='bigusername $thread_alt' style='$thread_bg_color padding: 10px'>

with:
<div class='$thread_alt' style='$thread_bg_color padding: 10px; font-size: 10px'>

This is a quick and dirty way to get it working now. Eventually I want to move all style definitions into a css file and all html created into a template.

Thank you so much for all your help, so far so good, lets see what the users will tell me but I think with the threaded view option everyone will be happy. I will keep my eyes out for new updates.

After a weekend of trying it out and testing it, it works really well for the people who prefer to have a Threaded Forum View, now is there a way to keep the original message tree in place has opposed to move it within the threaded view under the post, that we do find a bit confusing at this time. It is great that it has the ability to move the message tree below the post, but that's a step beyond what we are a.) used to and b.) what makes the threaded view so legible for some.

Thank you.

That's the way it should be imho in showthread, the post up top, followed by the thread tree below, followed by the reply box.

ibautocommunity - great job, I signed up for you site, the mod looks great. Finally, a true vb threaded view. (And ridiculously simple to install at that)

Feature request -

I would like to specify which forums have which display mode: flat or threaded (forget about the goofy "hybrid"). I would like this as an admin setting, I don't want the users to be able to choose, I think every user should be viewing and replying in the same display mode.

In other words in the admin panel I could specify forum #1 and #2 as flat, and #3 as your threaded.

Thanks again on such a great mod,

Dan

Threaded Three

Is there a line in the code I could modify in order to keep the native the threaded tree below the post, so as not to move the post within the thread in the Threaded Forum view.

After a few weeks using the threaded forum view that's about the one of the only two things I would like to modify at this point - if we could had 'how many views' on at the end of each line then I would be set.

Original native thread below the original post and how many views and I'd be walking like I have clouds on my feet (so would all my users )

Thank you in advance.

I think the installation instructions may need to be slightly updated to be vb4 compatible - specifically with something like the following (doesn't work yet, still trying to figure out the right code...)

<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo[threadedmode]">
$threadworks
<vb:else />
....
</vb:if>

$threadworks is the weak link - I think it needs to be changed in order to actually dump the contents of the $threadworks variable
