   Hi,

   I know there are lots of topics out there that are similar, but I can't find an answer that works for me. Much of the paste bin code is expired, and I have a custom theme which i think is complicating things.

   So right now I my front page displays a list of all the forums. I want it to stay that way when i add child forums, and I want to click on the parent forums to go to a list of subforums/child forums.

   Instead of this, the children just get added to the end of the list.

   <?php if ( bb_forums("depth=1") ) : ?>
   <div id="forum-main">
   
   	<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>
   
   <div<?php bb_forum_class('bb-category'); ?>>
       	<?php bb_forum_pad( '<div class="nest">' ); ?><a href="<?php forum_link(); ?>"><?php forum_name(); ?></a><?php forum_description( array( 'before' => '<small>', 'after' => '</small>' ) ); ?><?php bb_forum_pad( '</div>' ); ?>
   
           <span class="forum-icon"></span>
       </div>
   	<?php endwhile; ?>
   </div>

   The last category 'Ritalin' is suposed to be a child of 'medication'.

   Can anyone point me in the right direction?

   Many thanks!

   Well, I'm not having much luck. I've removed the "depth=1" which now puts the children in a list below the parent.

   That also seems to bring back the child class 'bb-child', so I'm able to indent the children so the list is at least readable. But most of my child / sub category lists are so long it is just a mess.

   See here: http://totallyadd.com/forum

   All I want to do is have a list of parent categories on the front page. When I click on a parent category, I should go to the list of children for that category. When I click on a child category, I should go through to the topics. That's all.

   Can anyone point me towards the very basic steps I need to take to achieve this?

   Thanks in advance,

   Jimmmy
