custom icon for one forum only

[imported_MaDCaT75]

is there a hack or something that allows me to have a custom icon for just one specific forum? I dont want it for all forums..... just one.

What do you mean, the status icon for posts on index.php and in subforums on forumdisply.php?

[Zachery]

yes its more than possible for one

<if condition="$foumd[forumid] == X>forum graphic id thingie here<else /> regular code here</if>

sorry I dont follow too well..... what template do I put this in? And whats "regular code here" ?

[Zachery]

forumhome_forumbit_level1_post find
<td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></td>
<td><img src="$vboptions[cleargifurl]" alt="" width="9" height="1" border="0" /></td>

replace with this



<if condition="$forum[forumid] == X><td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/$forum[forumid]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></td>
<td><img src="$vboptions[cleargifurl]" alt="" width="9" height="1" border="0" /></td>
<else /> <td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></td>
<td><img src="$vboptions[cleargifurl]" alt="" width="9" height="1" border="0" /></td>
</if>



you need to make a new folder and call it whatever id so if it was forum id 67 it would be a folder in the statusicon/67/

and you need to put the correct images in this folder :)

forum_on
forum_off
and so forth :)

I dont know whats wrong but I'm doing everything exactly as you tell me... however I get this error:

Parse error: parse error in /home/silver/public_html/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(2998) : eval()'d code on line 7

when making the changes to the template that you tell me to.

[Zachery]

did you make sure to change X to a real number?




<if condition="$forum[forumid] == X"><td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/$forum[forumid]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></td>
<td><img src="$vboptions[cleargifurl]" alt="" width="9" height="1" border="0" /></td>
<else /> <td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></td>
<td><img src="$vboptions[cleargifurl]" alt="" width="9" height="1" border="0" /></td>
</if>
