That's cool :D

I combined macgyver24 and virtualno's tweaks and added a new image (attached) to my forum/images/misc directory to have the option of both :)

I've attached a screen grab from my board as an example too.

<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]$thread[highlight]" target="_blank"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/new_window.gif" alt="New Window" width="16" height="16" border="0"></a>
<a href="showthread.php?goto=lastpost&$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]$thread[highlight]" target="_blank"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/new_window_last.gif" alt="New Window" width="16" height="16" border="0"></a>

Thanks Titania and Virtualno... finally got it working. And thanks to original author too

Code:

                        <if condition="$show['gotonewpost']"><a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]goto=newpost&amp;t=$thread[threadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/firstnew.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_to_first_new_post]" border="0" /></a></if>

                        $thread[movedprefix]

                        $thread[typeprefix]

                        $thread[moderatedprefix]

                        <if condition="$show['gotonewpost']">

                                <strong><a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]$thread[highlight]" id="thread_title_$thread[realthreadid]">$thread[threadtitle]</a></strong>



<!-- 1st entry for post in new window -->

<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]$thread[highlight]" target="_blank"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/new_window.gif" alt="open this thread in a new window" width="16" height="16" border="0"></a>

<!-- end 1st -->

                        <else />

                                <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]$thread[highlight]" id="thread_title_$thread[realthreadid]">$thread[threadtitle]</a>



<!-- 2nd entry for post in new window -->

<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]$thread[highlight]" target="_blank"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/new_window.gif" alt="open this thread in a new window" width="16" height="16" border="0"></a>

<!-- end 2nd -->



                        </if>

I have added the start of the if so you can see how it falls in.
I realise that I am no expert so be gentle.

I've got a little problem, "open in new window" icon appears only next to unread threads, when the subject have been read already there is no icon.

any suggestions ?

If you add above it the icon will be to the left if you add bellow it the icon will be to the right. I have attached my threadbit for admin or anyone else to see.

<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]$thread[highlight]" id="thread_title_$thread[realthreadid]">$thread[threadtitle]</a>

Here is mine to the right:

<else />
<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]$thread[highlight]" id="thread_title_$thread[realthreadid]">$thread[threadtitle]</a>
<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]$thread[highlight]" target="_blank"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/new_window.gif" alt="New Window" width="16" height="16" border="0"></a>
</if>

Admin/Mod ... Please edit my post accordingly I know you want it your way so please make changes as you see fit. I hope this helps anyone else with problems.

Thank You very much ,this works for my forum which is version 3.5.4

Thanks again :)

This may be a longer way around (I am no expert but this worked for me)
Thank you to the original poster and the others.

Mine turned out like this

Since you want it to appear which ever condition is met by the IF statement just put the code either above or below the IF ELSE section code depending whether you want it to display to the right or left of the thread title.

I found the original icon a bit too vibrant on my board so I toned it down, I also cut the original icon down to make it very small (but it's not now as clear as the original icon as to what it does.) If anyone wants to use these versions feel free to do so.
