Forum Boards

Okay, so I've always loved Proboards, but it is currently making me want to throw things in V5. I know I saw in another thread that you are able to change the layout of the boards without a code/mod by going under layout templates in the board list. I've tried many things to try and change the way it looks, but instead of changing it to the way I want it all it does is add text in the places where I'm trying to place things instead of actually changing it. I'm frustrated and about ready to give up completely.

I want to keep the on/off icon, link, and board description currently where it's at. I want to get rid of the threads and posts and drag the last post information below the board description. Under the last post info I would like for the sub-boards to be listed if the board has any sub-boards.

On V4 this was all accomplished using the MYO Board Mod. Is there something I'm missing to accomplish the look I want? Or am I unable to accomplish this in V5?

The layout templates are very similar to how the various B/MYO codes worked in that you have some variables that correspond to the names, post counts etc and then just move HTML around them.

Do you have the code you used for the MYO mod in V4? If you post it here (and a link to your V4 forum or a screenshot so we can see it an action), we can help explain what needs to be done.

Here is a screen shot of how I have my boards set up in V4. However it does look a little different in Firefox because the boxes have the border-radius effect on them, but it doesn't show up in IE, which is the only thing installed on the current computer I'm using. >_< Anyways I can't seem to duplicate this in V5 because it is a bit more complex and confusing.

Hi, Usagi.

Can you link to the original forum and the V5 forum in question? It should simply be a matter of using HTML similar to it.

Nevermind...I decided to go with something else.

Let me know if you change your mind. I'm willing to help.
