Hey. I got a small problem, I hope you can help me with.
On the Forum Index page the latest post is shown to the right of each category. The title of the post is clickable, and about 30 letters in length. How do I set this length to another length (In which file can I find the code that defines the length)?
Whit my website width, the axtract of the title from the latest post can span over 2 lines, which is annoying. I want to decrease that length, so that it can always fit within one line (thereby making the forum height smaller).

Thanks in advance :-)

SOLVED: Here is the solution.
Go to:
components -> com_kunena -> template -> default -> categories -> categories.php
Find the line:
KunenaParser::parseText($category->subject, 30)
Change 30 to whatever you like. Save and upload :-)

Generally, subject length is handled by Components » Kunena Forum » Forum Configuration » Frontend » Length Settings » Max. Subject Length

The only other suggestion that I can offer is for you to design your own template, or look at how the CSS is affecting the display issues that you seem to be encountering. A good tool for doing that is to use Firebug for Firefox. If you would like more information about Firebug, search this forum. Thanks

Thanks for your answear.
However, I don't want to change the subject length. It's the length of the extract of the subject seen on the forum index page to the right of each category (latest post) I want to change. This can't be done through the administrator panel, but has to be done by changing some code in one of the (php) files.
I can't find that little piece of code. Do you have any idea of where to look?

Designing my own template is not an option - i'm a newbie ;)
