* blueroom_forum_new.gif
* blueroom_forum_new_lock.gif
* blueroom_forum_old.gif
* blueroom_forum_old_lock.gif

Cant show the link as its a hidden style I am working on.

The skin is "easyblue", and the files;

* blueroom_forum_link.gif
* blueroom_forum_new.gif
* blueroom_forum_new_lock.gif
* blueroom_forum_old.gif
* blueroom_forum_old_lock.gif

Are located in /forum/images/easyblue/statusicon/

With the prefix in the admincp setting in forum manager set as blueroom_

Still no luck.

Thanks for the help.

Are the names of the new icons showing up in your source code? Are you just getting a blank icon on the page? What is the result? Any errors in your error_logs? Do you have the path to your folder correct in Style > StyleVars > Item Status Icon Folder ?

Icons simply aren't changing, showing the default. /forum/images/easyblue/statusicon/forum_new.gif

The Item Status Icon Folder in StyleVars is images/easyblue/statusicon

No errors in error_logs.

Create a New Style with No Parent Style. Browse the affected pages using this style, do your icons change?

Can you view those icons directly? ie. www.yousite.com/forum/images/easyblue/statusicon/blueroom_forum_link.gif

When the broken image appears, right click it and hit view image in FF or Properties in IE. This will tell you where the image needs to be saved to, then simply move the images to that folder.

Also, it is possible the custom image doesnt work for that skin on the forum home templates. Revert the forumhome_forumbit_level2_post template and then see if it works.

The second line of that template should be something like

Code:

        <td class="alt2"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/$forum[imageprefix]forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" /></td>

Did you also try clearing your browser cache? Also which forum have you changed it for?

It seems to be working for your "feelingblues" skin as it is trying to use the image: http://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/im..._forum_old.gif

To be honest, the easiest way we will be able to see this is to make the skin viewable...

I'm not sure what you mean by "They won't go there by default" but if you look in the template it shows:

Code:

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/$forum[imageprefix]forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />

So if the skin is set up correctly it should do.

Look in your forumhome_forumbit_leve2_post template. Do you have the code in red:

Code:

<tr align="center">

    <td class="alt2"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/$forum[imageprefix]forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" /></td>

    <td class="alt1Active" align="$stylevar[left]" id="f$forum[forumid]">

        <div>

Or is it slightly different?
