    Does anyone know how to setup forum listing display depth of subforums inside subforums?
    Kind of like this idea.

    MAIN FORUM
    --SUBFORUM
    --SUBFORUM
    ----SUBFORUM
    -------SUBFOFORUM
    -------SUBFOFORUM
    MAIN FORUM 2
    --SUBFORUM
    ----SUBFORUM
    -------SUBFOFORUM
    MAIN FORUM 3
    --SUBFORUM
    ----SUBFORUM
    -------SUBFOFORUM

    I can't figure out how to play with subforums depth.
    I tried 3-3-3 and 2-3-3 but it seems it doesn't work, even if I rebuild the thread information.

    Anyone knows how?

    Yes I did that. It didn't work for me.
    Like when you go inside the subforums, it should show another subforums too in a manner that i have on main forums, but it did not work it that way. Any more ideas?

    By default, vBulletin can display forum depth of 2 only. In your case, you need the 3rd level. You need to create a new template called forumhome_forumbit_level3_post and forumhome_forumbit_level3_nopost. Just copy the code from template level 1 or 2 to the new template.

    Don't know if there a mod to do this or not at vbulletin.org.

    i tried that, it seems not working. It still shows the same thing for me. Do i need to change something in the code i copied from level 1 or 2? Coz i literally just copied it and just change the name

    forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
    forumhome_forumbit_level1_post

    to

    forumhome_forumbit_level3_nopost
    forumhome_forumbit_level3_post

    But i just copied the codes. And after saving the new template, I tried changing on

    vBulletin Options -> Forum Listing Diplay
    the subforums to 3-3-3 (this one breaks the layout) and 2-3-3 (nothing is changed from before) and 2-3-3 (nothing is changed from before)

    hmm..Am i doing something wrong here?

    You do NOT need to make a new template, but you do need to play around with the forum display listing mentioned in the 2nd post.

    Depth of Forums - Forum Home - 2
    Depth of Forums - Forum Display - 1
    Depth of Sub-Forums - 1

    This should work.
