@rafass

do you have an idea how to fix this, when "Forum Category" is click-able and opens in a separate page ?

 

[rafass]

I guess is something like this: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/open-home-in-new-window-tab.57138/#post-608608
but in forum_list or somewhere around:

 

[erich37]

I guess is something like this

I actually mean something different:

when "Create Pages for Categories" is activated in ACP, then the button is not in the proper location.

 

[rafass]

oh, yeah, got it. you're right! good question.
I have no idea, if you found the solution please share it. I really like this customisation.
Thanks for open the thread.

I mean you don't really need an add-on for it, easy template editing.

Find this inside the template: node_forum_level_2

<div class="nodeControls">

Add this right above it:

    <a href="{xen:link 'forums/create-thread', $forum}" class="callToAction"><span>{xen:phrase post_new_thread}</span></a>

Extra.css:

.node_15 .callToAction > span
{
   background-color: #ff0000;
}
@media (min-width:1000px)
{
   .nodeList .nodeList .node { position: relative; }
   .forum_list .node .callToAction { position: absolute; right: 0; top: 15px; }
   .nodeList .node .nodeLastPost { right: 117px; }
   html .node .nodeControls { right: 365px; }
}
@media (max-width:1000px)
{
   .forum_list .node .callToAction { margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 30px; }
}

Can even target specific nodes like I did using the node ID #. Responsive may need some work depending on how you want it.
