People in past versions with earlier gd libraries had screwed up sprites for any icons that were grayscale. So if none of your icons are grayscale, I think you should be in good shape.

Beyond the current bug where thread sprites aren't showing up, everything else should work.

Thanks, I examined all of the sprites last night and they all look fine (no greyscale).

Using sprites, are not easy for the average user to actually modify the images and change things.

We didn't think it was something we wanted to push in vB4 at the time of release (3 years ago almost now).

Hopefully that view has changed now? Is there a better tracker item to upvote for CSS sprites than

http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/...3Aall-tabpanel

I think, that may be offered as an option. Who want to use sprites plugin, active it on plugin & product.

You can probably fix this manually.

Edit threadbit - template

It begins with:

Add "sprite_statusicon_thread_30" (without quotes) in front of that threadbit string.. so that it looks like this:

That will fix it, but for some reason the template modification ceased automatically applying this change after vb 4.1.11

Well, if the template changed, can't you just modify the search and replace for it in TMS?

I think that will be the better solution, but ultimately this addon needs to be updated for the same for it to be fully compatible with vb 4.1.11+ otherwise every user, who downloads and installs will have to do it

Yes, that's a "quick fix" because for some reason even though that particular modification line is active its status is not checked so it's not applied and I couldn't find a reason for that.

ps. there's another similar thing with search_threadbit template. That string is active, but status is not checked -> doesn't work which means that getdaily results are missing that status icon also.

An another one: memberaction_dropdown:

Edit: as fly said it above .. the reason is obvious - if the original template has changed TMS can't modify that template because the search string doesn't match (sorry if this conclusion is obvious :) I'm just learning how TMS and this mod works :) ).

So I guess, somebody needs to update this mod to be fully compatible with the latest vB - remember... keeping vB "up-to-date" is important for security reasons. vBulletin should make this mod a core feature.
