Title: 3 columns + several buttons to forum
Post by: gumis_rulez on December 27, 2010, 10:25:51 AM
On the main page, between left and right block, I would like to have three colums - each giving information from a descent category. Is it possible to make? What changes should I make to have such interface?

Second thing is that I would like to have in the main menu: forum1, forum2, forum3 and forum buttons. forum1 shows only one category from whole forum, forum2 shows second category from whole forum and forum button show all categories and posts - how can I do something like this.

Thank you for the first part. :) It will help a lot.

Second part I will try describe once again.

simpleportal.net has 5 main categories: simpleportal, development, support, customization and social. I would like to have five buttons which opens each category only - if I push button on the main page development than I see only these part of forum which refers to the development category.

..and one button forum which opens whole forum with all 5 categories.

I will use this forums categories as an examples,  the link for a category is as follows:

for the customization category:   http://simpleportal.net/index.php?action=forum#c7

#c7  is the id for that particular category, so all you need to do for your links is change the id, theres a tutorial on SMF  about how to add tabs to a 2.0 forum version.
