drummerboy_mack

Hi guys, I can't set my discussions to show up like the ones on here. I can only get it to show the five most recent. I tried all the layouts, but still can't get it to show Can someone help me. I'm new to vanilla forums.

peregrine

modern layout

config.php settings.

$Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['PerPage'] = '30';
$Configuration['Vanilla']['Comments']['PerPage'] = '30'
$Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['Layout'] = 'modern';
$Configuration['Vanilla']['Categories']['Layout'] = 'modern';

you can also try table layout.

$Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['Layout'] = 'table';
$Configuration['Vanilla']['Categories']['Layout'] = 'table';

some of what you want may be theme based and the theme is proprietary.

you can change most of what you want via.

dashboard/settings/homepage

and/or

/settings/advanced

change number here if using "mixed layout"

$Configuration['Vanilla']['Categories']['Layout'] = 'mixed';
$Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['PerCategory'] = '5';

this may give you other help if you are new:

if you are new to vanilla. the documentation and the tutorial, and video tutorials might be worth a look.

not sure if this works in current version of vanilla, perhaps it is an option as well:
