View Full Version : Post Icons Only For Certain Boards?

Is there someway I can set certain post icon categories to only appear in certain boards of my forum? I have a download section and would like to set icons depending on what host the downloads are hosted on such as megaupload, rapidshare, etc.. But when I make them, it appears on every board and clutters the Post Icon list. I'd also like the general ones to not be included in those sections. Or maybe there is a mod for something similar or to add images depending on the host?

That is to set a status icon per forum, he is looking for an image per thread.

koby411,

The best way to do this I think is via Thread Prefixes.

In Admin CP go to Thread Prefixes on the menu and add a new prefix, for example call it [RapidShare] then go back and edit the prefix and you can add a 'rich text' (html) version. You should be able to add an html <img> tag in there so that an image will be displayed next to your thread instead of the text (you probably will want to use align="absmiddle" in the img tag)... when people post a thread in these forums you can require them to choose a thread prefix if you want before posting.

You can then set which forums can use which prefixes.

Thank you, I didn't know img tags would work there, if it does, it'll be perfect.
