нашел, что в форумах можно указывать количество колонок для подфорумов.
но, у меня несколько другая структура получается...
категории--подкатегории (категории)---форумы
работает только для структуры
категории--подкатегории (форумы)---форумы
т.е. надо среднее звено (подкатегории) сделать форумами, но тогда можно будет создавать темы в подкатегориях (форумах) а это никак недопустимо ((

I think this would require complete code/style rewriting in regard of the board view structure, as "category" type of forum can't have "subforums" at all (see function display_forums(), especially note the line 421).
This would be the overkill for the ext, so I doubt it can be implemented here, sorry.

How i can find the settings in the ACP???

There's a setting while creating/editing a forum in ACP, it sounds like The number of columns for subforums list.

[JörgCH]

I can see the line

Code: Select all

The number of columns for subforums list

then i edit a forum.
By the categories i dont see it .
Is this so correct ???

I want to see the forums in a categorie in cloumns and search for this a extension ...

Yes it is. The explanation is in several posts above.

[JörgCH]

Is it possible to include categories in one of the next version???

it was helpful when the board have follow structure:

-German (Categorie)
-- General(Categorie)
---Discussions (forum)
---Help (forum)
--Technical(Categorie)
---Engine (forum)
---Wheels(forum)

so it is possible to see in the index as columns.
In the old Version 3.0.12 i had this feature installed
