This simple product modifies the search results page.

It changes the "Forum" row to not only include the thread's forum, but also the parent forums of said forum.

You can choose how many parent forums to display ("Depth"). The default is 2.

I apologize in advance for not having anything in vBulletin Options. I made the hack in a hurry so right now you have to edit the plugin code to change the depth. It's very simple though. The first line of the plugin is "$depth = 2;".

Change the 2 to the number you want. Make sure you add a semicolon at the end or PHP will get upset.


fsd11.zip now has a setting in vBulletin Options in order to change the depth (default is 2).

Anyways, it's a minor change but it was suggested via vb.com so I made it in a few minutes for the person making the suggestion. (I'm so kind! (haha)).

Screenshot is attached to show the results under a depth of 2.

Second result only shows 1 parent forum because even under depth 2, the parent forum was a category without a parent (so it can't continue).
