Oh yeah
I finally found a way to do this
Here are the steps just in case someone would like to refer to it or for future reference for myself
1. ACP >> GARS >> TYPES
Code:
How many columns for subforums?
change the value of it to 1
2. ACP >> Style & Templates >> Style Manager >> GARS_forumdisplay
FIND & DELELTE:
Code:
<if condition="$show['forumslist'] && !$show['nosubs']">
<!-- sub-forum list -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-bottom-width:0px">
<tr>
<td class="tcat" width="100%">$vbphrase[subforums]<span class="normal"> : $foruminfo[title]</span></td>
<if condition="$show['forumsearch']">
<td class="vbmenu_control" id="forumsearch.subforums" nowrap="nowrap"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[search_this_forum]</a> <if condition="$show['quicksearch']"><script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("forumsearch.subforums"); </script></if></td>
</if>
</tr>
</table>
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<if condition="!$show['gars_fd_list']"><thead>
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead"> </td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions[showmoderatorcolumn]">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>
</thead></if>
$forumbits
</table>
<br />
<!-- / sub-forum list -->
</if>
FIND:
Code:
<!-- LEFT COLUMN -->
<if condition="$show[GARS_columns]">

<if condition="$show[GARS_modposition2]">
<td valign="top" width="$stylevar[gars_mod_width]" style="padding-top:10px; padding-$stylevar[right]:10px">

<br />
<img src="clear.gif" width="$stylevar[gars_mod_width]" alt="" height="1px" border="0" />
</td>
</if>
<td style="padding-top:10px;">
</if>
<!--LEFT COLUMN -->
REPLACE WITH:
Code:
<!-- LEFT COLUMN -->

</td>
</if>
<td style="padding-top:10px;">
</if>
<!--LEFT COLUMN -->
SAVE THE TEMPLATE
3. ACP >> Style & Templates >> Style Manager >> GARS_forumbit_level1_post
DELETE ALL ITS CONTENT AND REPLACE WITH:
Code:
<td class="alt1" valign="top" align="$stylevar[left]" id="f$forum[forumid]">
<div class="panel" align="$stylevar[left]">
<div class="fieldset">
<div>
<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><strong>$forum[title]</strong></a> ($forum[threadcount])
</div>
<if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if>
$childforumbits
</div>
</div>
</td>
