Add space between categories

Please refer to this post space between each category one problem - vBulletin Community Forum

I am trying to add the space in between categories, but I cant get help from vbulletin.com because vbseo is installed, so hopefully someone here can be more helpful.

I have done what the post says to do, but because the forum at the top of the site is private, it does not work for reg members.

Thanks.

Any updates on this?

Hi Matt,

You just need to alter that conditional or add another..

Code:

<if condition = "$bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 'x' AND $forum[forumid] == 'x'"> 

..... 

<else /> 

<if condition = "$forum[forumid] == 'y'">............</if>

</if>

(or whatever it is, I dont have access to my templates right now).

The red part is the existing code, the rest is the addition.

*edit* Zachery didn't refuse to help because of the presence of vBSEO, he couldn't read the code easily because of the C2C compression .. you could have turned off the C2C compression in your vbseocp.php Control Panel and he would have been able to see what was up. If my suggestion doesn't work, try doing that and asking him again.

What do the ...... mean above? any chance you could take a quick look at your templates and try and write it out in full (2 forum ID's are 3 and 330)

Appreciate it. Thanks.

The ... means whatever you currently have in the template.

I can take a look in about 8 hours.. I am not at home, and my templates are heavily modified as they are.

(also, to do it, I need to also know what the usergroupid is that can see the hidden forum, as that is part of the conditional).

As per instuctions, it just needs to be at the very top of the template forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
If I need to change that, let me know here is what I change changed it to so far:

Code:

<if condition = "$bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == '5,6,7' AND $forum[forumid] == '353'"> 

<else /> 

<if condition = "$forum[forumid] == '3'"></if>

</if>

Now the dot is showing for me and reg members, so it is basically doing nothing now. any other ideas?




edit:
doing this now makes it work for everyone but the staff

Code:

<if condition = "$bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == '5,6,7' AND $forum[forumid] != 353"> 

<else /> 

<if condition = "$forum[forumid] != 3"></if>

</if>

Edit: nvm I got it working now, i left out an if statement in the original code. silly me for working late at night lol

Excellent!

I assume you used a slightly different code, as == '5,6,7' shouldn't work. in_array(5,6,7) would though.

I went back to the very original code, after i realised i left out an if tag, so my new code is just <if condition = "$forum[forumid] != 3"> with the if statement a few lines down, it works as stated on vBulletin, just doesnt work if you leave out an if tag^^

Hehe, that happens to me from time to time as well.
