hey,

i was wondering if it was possible to cut down the info given in the 'recent topics' block of the forums modules (the standard one that comes with xoops)

Right now ive clicked don't show full info but the block shows, topic name, replies and last post with date. Ideally id like the block just to shot the topic and number of replies or just the topic alone.

I havent got a clue where to start on doing that so any advice would be excellent.

Thanks in advance.

It you go to block management then edit the block and the click 'edit template' you can remove any info that you don't want to appear in the block. You will need a basic understanding of HTML in order to do this though.

hey, thanks for the info sorry it took a while to get back to you.
When i go to edit templates i only get a choice of 'view' rather than save. How can i fix that?

The default template set cannot be edited. You need to clone the template set. Then you can edit the cloned templates.

...and donĀ“t forget to set the cloned template as your default template in "Site Admin Preferences"...

aah got it!

Sorted now, thanks for the help. If anyone else out there wants to clone a template it's really easy just go to templates in the admin section and click the link saying clone!
