    Hey @selenite,

    you can hide this column easily by adding the following CSS:

    
    #af-wrapper span.last-post-headline {
        display: none;
    }
    
    #af-wrapper .topic-poster {
        display: none;
    }
    

    But keep in mind that is only hidden, but it’s still accessible over the source code of your website.

    Thank you Dominik, I tested this in several ways, I also noticed it makes difference if you put the code in the Theme itself – css section or in the Forum css. If the code is put in the forum css it works also if you change the theme, if one only puts it in the Theme css code one has to redo that every time the Theme is changed.

    It is true the source code is still accessible but at least it does not show up in the forum itself as for some forums the date – time etc is really not needed and even detrimental in effect. They have more of a library setup and postings are not done every few days or weeks so for the visitor who is not aware of that it might give a wrong impression. I was also very pleased with the HTML support so one can copy paste things easily ,if need be, a lot of forum platforms do not support that , like the older PHPBB systems with the bbcode etc. So that is a real bonus point.

    Actually I have done quite extensive testing with this interesting product to see what it can and cannot do. Especially when it comes to backup / restore of a forum. Import and export but until now that did not work out so well at all. Unlike bbpress for example where one can easily import export posts, topics, etc. Full backups of a website do work and the forum is there with everything in it, have not found a way yet to bypass that solution yet.

    In other words there is not build in ” backup – restore ” function in the product itself as far as I have been able to find out.

    I did make clones of my website through the cpanel and all works perfect on a subdomain , right out of the box. Top work !! 🙂

    Interesting clip perhaps, in German, which I also speak.

    oh another thing

    Caching (plugins) must be disabled otherwise it won´t work.

    I noticed , as I use the forum for a while now, that all sorts of caching can have an impact. I also noticed, over time, strange behavior with uploading pictures. It sort of remembers the uploads , so if you are in a second post , reply, when you upload picture three , it will show picture one and later on picture two….strange, than it finally uploads picture three.
    to avoid that you have to logout, perhaps clear cache of browser and login again.

    it is the most user friendly forum structure
