Moving Sub Boards to Bottom of Page

How can I modify the default template so that on the index page of a board that has sub-boards, the list of sub-boards are displayed near the bottom of the page instead of near the top?

You mean not listing the sub board with the parent board ?????

I believe he means having the sub boards listed under the current topic, whereas now it's on the top.

Thanks you all for chipping in.

Let me try and clarify using this link to the Localization board of this forum. Please visit the link.

https://www.elkarte.net/community/index.php?board=14.0

This board "Localization" has two child boards: "Download Language pack" and "Transifex Translation" which you can see listed near the top of the page under the "Sub Boards" section.

Below this you have a list of posts for the root Localization board.

What I want is for that section "Sub Boards" to be shown after the list of posts on the page (after the last section that contains icons for Locked topic, pinned topic etc).

Not before/above it as it is right now.

I hope my question is clearer?

That could be difficult since after threads could mean after few pages of threads, if they are a lot.

You will need to edit MessageIndex.template.php

Change the name of function template_display_child_boards_above() to be function template_display_child_boards_below()

You may have to change that first line from <header class="category_header"> to <header class="category_header clear"> if when you do the above rename things may get crowded below.

I guess I was wrong. It seems that in the controller file, the child board was already set to be on the front page only, so @Spuds suggestion should theoratically work.

Worked perfectly. Thank you so so much for your help with my questions
