Lets say you have

Forum A

Forum B

Forum C

And all three are different. Is it possible to assign post icons per forum, so they don't use the same ones?

There is no default function to do that.

Umm are you sure?

Assigning a unique "Prefix for Forum Status Images" in the Forum Manager can do this. I think this is what you are trying to do...It's not that hard at all and can be done in 2 minutes.

Well, I don't want a certain set of icons to be seen in forum A. Only in Forum B and vice versa

He said Post Icons, not Forum Status Images. Those are two different types of images/icons.

I seem to recall a mod for this for pre-4.x You may want to see if you can find it. Or, who knows, it may have been updated to work in 4.x. Try a search for it and see what you get.

Naa, I can't seem to find anything. Nothing at least which pertains to my query.

One way to do this would be to set each forum to use a specific style in forum manager and then change the post icons for each style.
