Jaxel's Sub Forum Grid Listings...

Jaxel's Sub Forum Grid Listings...

When the structure of the forum: Category-category - category - section - topic.
Nothing has been online.
If a Category - section - section - topic, then all is well.

How to make that work with the categories? Maybe I do not understand something - I do not know much English.
Sorry.

@phaze3131 I think you'll find your answers on the first page of this thread.


I got it working on my test site but not as bullet points
2013-09-23_1403.png


How do I add bullet points?
Also, I want it to have the same background color as the parent forum (General Prepaid Discussion).

Please help.
 
The "bullet points" are indicators for new posts.

As for the background colour, in the HTML step of Jaxel's instructions, when you created the HTML template (referred to as EWRcustom_node_level_2) you'll notice the following line:

Code:
<li class="subForumsContainer secondaryContent {xen:if '{$category.node_id}', 'grid_{$category.node_id}'} {xen:if '{$forum.node_id}', 'grid_{$forum.node_id}'}">

The "secondaryContent" is controlling the appearance of your sub-forums grid. Simply remove it to have no background, or replace it with a new class to style it differently.
 
is there a way to get the bullet points to show for each sub-forum regardless of new posts or not?
In the CSS you create for this mod, the bullet points are defined here:

Code:
.subForumsGrid .node div.unread,
.subForumsGrid .node div.unread a:hover
{
background-image: url('@imagePath/xenforo/widgets/unread.png');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 0px 50%;
}

If you wanted bullets on all sub-forums, not just those with unread posts, then modify the above and remove the two instances of "div.unread". Note that I haven't tested this, so please let others know if this works for you.

This does not work for me. Unfortunately i´m not a prof in CSS, so perhaps someone can explain me, how to handel this.

I want read/unread icons before the subforums, like here.
 
I've been trying to figure this out for a long time. If you figure out it please share the solution. ;)

i have a feeling that the solution lies somewhere in the html template EWRcustom_node_level_2:

Code:
<xen:require css="EWRcustom_forum_list.css" />

<xen:if is="{$level} == 2 AND {$renderedChildren}">
<li class="subForumsContainer secondaryContent {xen:if '{$category.node_id}', 'grid_{$category.node_id}'} {xen:if '{$forum.node_id}', 'grid_{$forum.node_id}'}">
    <div class="subForumsGrid">
        <ol class="blockLinksList blockLinksGrid">
        <xen:foreach loop="$renderedChildren" value="$child">
            {xen:raw $child}
        </xen:foreach>
        </ol>
    </div>
</li>
</xen:if>

maybe changing {$level} == 1 or removing the {$renderedChildren} ? im a little out of my depth here. i'll tinker around and get back to you.

Hey,

Thanks for responding. I've tried both of this (98% sure, deff tried changing {$level} == 1) with no results. Did you have any luck?
 
Is there a way to turn this into an else conditional? Use it'll either be 'unread' or 'read'?

Code:
<div class="nodeInfo categoryForumNodeInfo {xen:if $category.hasNew, 'unread'}">
