Hello fellow vBulletin Users / Experts,

I was wondering whether it was possible to search for specific post icons?

Is it possible?

Please note, I'm talking about post icons not prefixes.

Thanks.

There used to be a mod for the 3.0 series that would do this per forum. I modified that one to work on my 3.8 forum but, like I said, it is used to filter by post icons in that specific forum, not site wide. I don't think I have ever seen anyone do anything regarding searching site wide for threads with a certain post icon.

Hello Lynne,

I must say you are the most helpful member of staff on this board. Thanks.
Per forum is also fine, would you know what the modification is called as I wouldn't want to go through 20+ pages of mods.
Or maybe you could share your modified version of the mod please?

Thanks!

I don't think the old mod that I based mine off of is still available (they don't have 3.0 mods here anymore) and I don't have anything written up on what I did for that mod (and don't use it on vb4, so didn't need to go look it up recently). There may be other mods here for it. Try a search on "icon*" or "filter*" or similar in "all mods" "titles only" (just found this one - Filter Threads By Post Icon (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=98978&highlight=filter%2A) - I'd guess it should work but I've never tried it)

Hey,

Thanks Lynne, I've installed it and it works like a charm.
