Hi,
My forum is at https://malayali.ca/forums/ and I was wondering if there is any way I can disable the first few words of the first posts being shown while in sub-forum view like https://malayali.ca/forums/malayali-room-rentals/ . I simply want the post titles as links and no content lines shown until they reach the thread page.
Please see this screenshot to know what exactly I mean https://share.getcloudapp.com/geur2jw9
I want to remove the lines the arrow is pointing to.
Any help will be appreciated.
Hi @jimmy-george,
Please check out the following two options of the plugin:
1. Extended Layout - Recent topics.
The screenshot above displays the Extended topic layout with two modes. This can be managed in the Forums > Settings > Forums admin page or can be opened/collapsed using the blue, small arrow next to orange “First post and replies” phrase.
More info here: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/categories-and-forums/forum-layouts/extended-layout/#extended-layout-%E2%80%93-topic-list
2. Extended Layout - Recent posts. The option is designed to expend/collapse recent posts on the topic page. The option can be found in the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Topics & Posts Tab. More info here: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/wpforo-settings/topic-post-settings/#options
Hi @sofy,
Thanks a lot for the idiot-proof answer with screenshots. I was able to set it up for my liking. All is good and thanks a lot again.
Jimmy
