I think what you mean is making subcategory's. To do that you can go into your Category manager and select the Parent Category.

a3d

No that is not what i mean, what i mean is in op post and in title.

Robert

I will try to not be rude here... But, if you don't explain your problem correct nobody will be able to help you correctly. So provide information on what you want.

@a3d can you give us a sample maybe?

I believe he wants to display all of his categories and subcategories on the main page, like this:

Cael Dominis
- Beta forums
- Modding
- Wishlist
Studio

Instead of having the subcategories displayed after clicking on the top-level categories.

Ah, in that case, OP will need a custom theme designed.

That is really sad, i will argue that almost all forums existing have this as a feature.
Does anyone know any theme that supports it, or did implement it himself?
I have zero web design skills, never learned anything apart from html.

@a3d it's not a feature in existing forums just a design. It's the same design that forums have been using for a long time. NodeBB comes with a fresh design.

a3d

Bump please someone help to make it.

Is this what you want?

It's on 0.8.2 right now so it may not work, but I'm going to update it soon, probably later today.

a3d

@yariplus Yes, thank you!

yariplus

Okay, I finally figured out what the error was. I'll push it in a minute once I clean up all the debuging mess.

yariplus

@a3d Okay, my fork should work now.

You'll need to install manually, it's been months since I've heard from Sam, so idk when the PR will be added.
npm install git+https://github.com/yariplus/nodebb-theme-persona.git#creepr

If you just want to add subcategories to your own theme, the needed changes are in my last commit.
