Hello. Could somebody guide me or give me some hints on how to solve following two issues?

On an intranet I have a Drupal forum working. Some of the users have requested following improvements (Drupal 6.2).

1) Collapsible forum containers, because it's hard to get an overview of the forum.
I have tried this solution for Drupal 5.x "Collapsible Containers" (http://drupal.org/node/202542) without luck.

2) Another request is to have the "New forum topics" block to show which forum the post is actually posted (the "New forum topics" or "Recent posts" don't show which forum or container the topic is posted).

Should I post this as a request at the advanced forum module or the core forum module? Is this a theming issue? Snippet issue?

Thank you :-)

For latest topics/comments and displaying the forum where they are posted, use the views module to build the view you want and enable it as a block.
You should start with the tracker template view and then just add the fields you want...

I used Views - Enabled the tracker view (override), did an edit, and added "Taxonomy: Term" to Fields. It works great, thanks.

I have a followup on the collapsible forums here: http://drupal.org/node/202542, but there is still some dev to go.

How do I e-mail-subscribe to this drupal forum thread? Is it possible?

Thanks.

1) the collapsible forum container functionality is being developed for the advanced forum module here: http://drupal.org/node/291084
