Just did a fresh install on 6.1, and retained the members and posts I had on my previous version. Everything there went fine.

However, for some reason, the column widths on the new board are all out of wack. It gives the "Last Post" column way too much room and squeezes up the Forum title column... Making it look real dumb.

Question is:
1) Is there any reason for this?
2) I was thinking about adding a
after the subject and before the (last poster) in the 'Last Post' column, but when I went to find it in the code, I couldn't. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Most likely a long username causing that. You can add a br in there, check in public_forum_summary.pl

Allen,

Find these lines in public_forum_summary.pl:

if(length($last_subject) > 25) {
$thisbr = "
";
} else {
$thisbr = "";
}

Comment out all but the second line. That should do it...

[edit]
On second thought, you might not have those lines. I dunno, mine might be from a hack... if you don't have those lines, find these lines:

if($last_author ne '') {
$thislast = qq(

On the next line, add a
between $last_subject and $last_author.

(Scientists) are apolitical, supposedly, like civil servants--empiricists, who only wanted things managed in a rational scientific style, the greatest good for the greatest number, which ought to be fairly simple to arrange, if people were not so trapped in emotions, religions, governments, and other mass delusional systems of that sort.
