Topic: [CODING HELP] Removing Column From Forum

[~Alex]

Hey folks, it's been a while since I've stop by. Hope everyone's keeping themselves well.

Now, about this issue, I've been trying to figure this one out, but I've got no clue. I want to remove a column from the forum. I've attached an image, it's the highlighted area that I want gone, as I think it's kinda useless and takes up space.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance!

Hi guys. Any chance we can go over this again? I know I probably shouldn't bump the thread, but it's the same issue. I had to start back up from scratch and I don't know what the edits done here were. Can you advise?
 
Thanks.

Hi ccbtimewiz.   
 
I've attached the file. Any chance you can post what's been done so that I can related to this thread later if it ever happens again?

Sorry guys, don't mean to bump the thread. I'm not sure if cbtimewiz is still looking into this, or maybe just got too busy?

Can one of you help me out?

You should be able to compare the two files with winmerge and see what changes have been made.

bigguy, thanks. i missed it the first time around, but it looks like this is what you have to remove from the messageindex.php file in order to remove the column.

:

                        <td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" align="center" width="5%">
                            <img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/topic/', $topic['class'], '.gif" alt="" />
                        </td>
also, the line below that, should read:

:

                        <td colspan="2" class="windowbg2" valign="middle" align="center" width="4%">
correct me if i'm wrong, but that seems to have done it. 

thanks again!

Looks like you got it. Good to see.
