Catagory Icons
 
Catagory Icons
Tested on 3.6.1
By Adrian at Development chat.com

Current Version: 1.0.1
1.0.1 Status: Working Fine.

Hey,

I noticed a few people around the 'net wanted a modification like this, It wasn't too hard so i thought i would give it ago.

You can specify a image path/url to use for your catagory icon, if none is specified, the forum will use vBulletins default image.
See bottom of post for screenshots

Installation
Import product-catagoryicons.xml (It should make the needed Mysql tables too)
Go to Options > Catagory Icons to enable the mod'.

Template Edits
Open Forum Home Templates > forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
Find:
HTML Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" />
or

HTML Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0"

id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
Replace with:
HTML Code:
<if condition="$vboptions[customimg_enabled] == 1">
        <if condition="$forum[customimg] == ''">
                <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0"

id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />

<else />
                <img src="$forum[customimg]" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
</if>

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

id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
</if>
Save.
Open up Forum Home Templates > forumhome_forumbit_level2_post
Find:
HTML Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" />
or

HTML Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0"

id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
Replace with:
HTML Code:
<if condition="$vboptions[customimg_enabled] == 1">
        <if condition="$forum[customimg] == ''">
                <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0"

id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />

<else />
                <img src="$forum[customimg]" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
</if>

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

id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
</if>
Done. :)

That should be it.

To set catagory icons, just edit a forum, the image field is at the bottom.
If you have any problems, just ask.

If you use it, please click install. :)

Thanks.

Adrian

Nice hack, will install soon! :)

ChavMagnet 09-24-2006 12:11 PM
Ok Great hack buy im having a few problems first one is this you say in forumhome_forumbit_level2_post replace this

Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" />
But my template is like this

Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0"

id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
I replaced that with your code and this is what happened to my icons Thanks Alot.

bashy 09-24-2006 01:13 PM
Hi

I was about to install and i see i have the same code as ChavMagnet

Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" /></td>
Could you please advise as to the best way to tdo this please as i do not know what functionality the extra bit of code i have does and i do not want to break something like normal lol

Adrian. 09-24-2006 01:21 PM
If you have...

HTML Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0"

id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
Replace it with my code, it should work fine...

Just make sure, you are not replacing <td> </td> <tr> </tr>

EDIT: Also, make sure you have the mod' enabled.

Adrian

bashy 09-24-2006 01:38 PM
Hi m8, Ok done that and seemed ot go ok,
Can you take a look at the image please, i take it the forum manager aint meant to look like that?

Also i have added an image, yet it dont show the image, it just removes the original

Adrian. 09-24-2006 02:15 PM
Sorry about it having no description on the field.

I was in a hurry to finish this mod' up for someone before i had to go out.

If you import the .xml attached (Updated), it should add the description.

Adrian

bashy 09-24-2006 02:25 PM
Ny ideas on the image not showing, the url in the box is
/images/catergory/grabit.gif
i take it thats right

EDIT, Sorted, it needs forums/ 1st

Snake 09-24-2006 03:47 PM
Thanks for making this! :)

bashy 09-24-2006 04:13 PM

You can currently set a custom image for subforums...

Or do you mean, set custom images for the subforum list on forum home?

Veer 09-24-2006 04:58 PM
Great Work Adrian.

Clicks Install, Thanks. :)

bashy 09-24-2006 05:39 PM
The latter m8, to show on forumhome?

Just as a question, can this mod be updated to give the user the option to place 4 custom images:
One for new posts
one for no new posts
One for Locked forum & no new posts
& one for locked and NEW posts

Thanks a bunch for you work.

I agree with Luke. It's just that without the ability for the icon to change with the different status' of the forum in question's read marking it takes away a rather important functionality of knowing if there are unread posts in said forum.

Hey,

Does no image display? If so...
  • Enable the modification
  • Do the template edit
  • Enter the URL to your Image. Which you should have already uploaded...

If the problem still persists with the image URL inplace, it could be due to if you have your forum in a directory. eg /forum.

If so, put /forum/ before your image URL.

Adrian

Maksa 09-26-2006 11:11 AM
http://www.maksazone.com/images/statusicon/

That is my Image URL where should i enter that url? i think it's default one isn't it?

File names for images:

forum_(forum id).gif

E.g: forum_45.gif

Is it okay?

i think it's correct one.. but don't know wat is the problem....

any help?

Maksa 09-26-2006 11:15 AM

Hi,

Ok, lets say you have a car catagory...

Upload a image with anyway name, but too keep it simple, call it car.jpg,
upload it into anyway directory, (for the sake of this explanation, upload it into /images/statusicon/"

Now, enter in the text field, "/images/statusicon/car.jpg"

:)

Adrian

Maksa 09-26-2006 11:40 AM
i have uploaded few images. i m confused where to enter text field

"/images/statusicon/car.jpg"

where to add that

quotin Maksa... I'd like to keep the new/old post icon... :D

Marco

Maksa 09-28-2006 10:40 AM
even i wanted to keep that but no idea how to do? where to get help :(?

Deska 09-29-2006 06:21 AM
http://www.golpo.net/forum/ is not using this hack.
It's just template edit, right click on icon in that forum, you will see that file name is using forum id, example forum News And Announcements has id 2, so the image name will be 2.gif

I hope you understand what I'm talking about :)

Maksa 09-29-2006 10:54 AM
yes that's wat i wanted to do for my website. but what code i have to edit in template page. sorry but i really don't know much about codeing. i want some help if anyone can give me... :(
