"Hidden" Categories - 07/17/2001 10:11 PM
Have been searching for this without finding any hack to do this. And the Hidden Forums hack is not what I think of for this purpose.
If you have a lot of forums, and a lot of categories, and you dont want all of these forums and categories to be shown on the forum summary page;
- Is there a way to put some forums in a category that is NOT shown on the forum summary page, and that is only accessable from a link in the menubar?
I do not talk about restricted forums hidden by the Hidden Forums hack.(This way I know you can build a hidden category, but it will have restrictions that doesnt fit for my idea.)
I know that I can do something similar if I make a second UBB and just share the members and Forum** directories between these two UBB's. And then make a link in the menubar to a category inn the other UBB (I guess UBBDev and the UBBDev database is built this way)
I just though I should ask if there is a more easy way to do this within ONE singel UBB?
Are there any existing hacks for this purpose?
