Two quick questions - child boards and 'posts/topics'

How can I make this:

5 Posts
1 Topics

Look like it does on other boards, you know, side by side with just numbers?

Also, Is there a way I can change "child boards' to 'sub-forums' ? Where would I change the wording for this?

Thanks in advance

Look in boardindex.template.php To change the look of how you want the posts and topics to display.

for changing the child to sub

In index.english.php:
Find:

$txt['parent_boards'] = 'Child Boards';

Replace with:
$txt['parent_boards'] = 'Sub-forums';

In Profile.english.php
Find:

$txt['show_children'] = 'Show child boards on every page inside boards, not just the first.';
Replace with:
$txt['show_children'] = 'Show sub-forums on every page inside boards, not just the first.';

Thanks for the reply. What exactly do I need to change there?

jerm

Look for:
// Show some basic information about the number of posts, etc.
Under that is what you'd modify

Okay, I found that, but I don't know how to edit that part to make it do what I want.

I want the topics and posts to be side by side with just numbers, like you normally see in other software.
Any chance you (or anyone) could post what I need to replace that part with to make it happen?
