After reading this -

Is there a way to do it on VB3, or is it the same way as i want to seperate my categories.

Cheers

This is fairly simple, I've looked around and I couldn't find a HowTo anywhere. So I made one myself;

Edit Template FORUMHOME;
Remove this code:

 <tr align="center">
<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="80%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="20%" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>

Edit forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost:
To the top add:

</table>
<br />
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

Search for:

<tbody id="collapseobj_forumbit_$forumid" style="{$collapseobj_forumid}">

Add Below:

 <tr align="center">
<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="80%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="20%" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>

And you're done! Have fun

I just noticed Floris's HowTo Split post:

Haha, oh well! Which ever you want to use, Floris's HowTo is a bit different. If you have done any previous changed to FORUMHOME or forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost I suggest you use mine.

used yours mate, but the colums aren't in line.

i tried floris's earlier and got the same thing.

got msn ? maybe you could help me a bit

[Aros]

That's because each column has a different content (longer, will stretch), this is a little sloppy - Yes, but as far as my knowledge goes there is no way to fix that problem.

[Blade-uk]

so i'll just have to cut down my categories description to fix it ?

[Aros]

That won't help. The best thing you could do is to edit a vBulletin Option;
AdminCP > vBulletin Options > Last Thread Title Maximum Displayed Characters
Set to 20-25, although this won't work great on all resolutions. Resolution 800x600 would probably still see miss-aligned collumns unless you define a width in pixels (Use width 200px for last post information).
That should do it!
