Move "Created by" to Under Thread Topic?

[{ LADY SAM }]

Apologies if there's an existing thread asking for this (or if I've posted in the wrong area), but I've been searching for awhile and haven't found one.  Maybe I overlooked but...

Is there any way to move the "Created by" to under the Thread Topic?  I have a code for V4, but since it won't work for V5 I was wondering if there was one yet or there was a simpler way to move it.

Basically I'd like it to look like this:


Any help is appreciated. :-)

I would kind of like to see this done as well. I do not remember if my old forum had "Started by" under my Thread topics anymore. (It has been too long)

EDIT: I figured out how to add "Started by" under the Thread topics but why is there so much spacing? Also, the icons are way too big it seems to me.

Admin > Themes > Layout Templates > Board > Thread List
Line 17 you should see:
<td class="created-by clickable">$[thread.created_by_user]</td>

Remove that, but first copy the part in blue.
On line 11 and 12, you should see:

<span class="link target">$[thread]</span>
{if $[thread.pagination]}<div class="ui-micro-pagination">Pages: $[thread.pagination]</div>{/if}

Paste that blue bit just below line 12 (so create a new line), so now you should have:
<span class="link target">$[thread]</span>
{if $[thread.pagination]}<div class="ui-micro-pagination">Pages: $[thread.pagination]</div>{/if}
<br />Thread Started By: $[thread.created_by_user]

You'll need to add the green bit in too.


Now click the tab for "Board", and find this on line 32:
<th class="created-by">Created By</th>

Remove it completely, or alternatively, just hide it adding <!-- and --> like so:

<!--<th class="created-by">Created By</th>-->


Hit save, and voila.

Thanks for the reply How come the Threads are moved over to the right more? I dislike that and wish they were more aligned to the left. There is too much open space.

Thank you so much!!! You're a lifesaver, Stinky666

Can you post a screenshot or give a link, because for me they only go right when the "new" icon is at a thread.

Ohh right ok, you just need to go to Admin > Themes > Advanced Styles & CSS > Stylesheet
From approximately lines 869 to 889 you should see
/* Thread List */
lots of CSS here

Change the percentages for these lines to adjust the column widths:
.threads .main { width: 41%; text-align: @thread_align_subject; }
.threads .created-by { width: 14%; text-align: @thread_align_created_by; }
.threads .replies { width: 9%; text-align: @thread_align_replies; }
.threads .views { width: 8%; text-align: @thread_align_views; }
.threads .latest { width: 20%; text-align: @thread_align_last_post; cursor: pointer; }

You most likely only need to change the first of those:
.threads .main { width: 41%; text-align: @thread_align_subject; }


Yours will possibly be different to the above (the actual width's.)

Odd, I can find it on the default theme but not the other theme. Also, I am not even sure what I need to change anything to since it shows the same way you currently have it.

I always make sure the percentages equal up to the total of 100%, since you're occupying 100% for the table.

On the stylesheet, press ctrl+f and then paste the following in and hit enter:
.threads .main { width:

That should take you to the line you need

Stinky666 works PERFECTLY thank you so much! ^_^ I basically took the percentage from "Created by" and added it to "Main" and put 0% for created by

For this topic it's showing as "new" in participated, and that "Guest" was the last poster.
If I click from the participated to come to this thread, it says the post was not found

Edit:
Ok replying did the trick haha.

LOL Stinky666 would you mind if I send you a PM really quick? (By the way since my request (and the original author's request) was fulfilled we could probably lock this now I'll stop replying on here now. xD
