look&feel prob

How-where to change the template so that it can be seen if there is a new post in subforums? English isn't my first language and how a picture is worth more than 1.000 words here goes.

My forum looks like this


and I would like it to look like this


As you can see there is no icon for new/no new posts in subforums and no last post by, and I would like to have that. Is it at all posible? If it is how to do it?

Hey guys. Bumping my theme.

I know that you're busy and will be patient.

I figured it must be possible, cause you've done it here. Just can't figure out how I have read every option in AdminCP and some through Templates (as i gather it's definately not in Themes) and my best guess is it's somewhere in themes, so I'm asking here.

Hope someone will answer me.

It appears that you have those forums as sub-categories (meaning you have it set as a category, but inside another category). Because it is a sub-category, it can't have posts in it, so it doesn't have an indicator.

If you'd like there to be an indicator, you need to go into your Admin CP and edit each of the forums with a subforum and set "Act As Forum?" to "Yes."

Justin S. I love you! I love you! I love you!

It works!! And yeah you are right, I had them set on 'act as forum - no', but only cause I thought that's the only way for them to have subforums. Now I know better Tnx a lot.
