[Solved] Different Forum Icon For Each Forum?
 

Hi,

I am sure I have seen this but cant seem to find it via search.

Basically looking for a mod/method which would enable me to have a different icon next to each forum?;

I am sure this will help you further:

Thanks, but I am pretty sure I saw a modification for this a while ago? :confused:

No Mod needed. Go to the Forum Manager > select your forum to edit > Prefix for Forum Status Images (This prefix will be used on status image filenames for a forum, it must contain A-Z, 0-9, -, _, . and /)

Thanks Lynne,

I have tried that by following this but despite the seemingly obvious instructions, I cant seem for the life of me to be able to figure it out :confused:

What is your prefix and what are the names of your new icons? Also, are you making sure to put your newly made icons into the correct image folder for your style?

My newly made icons are;

* blueroom_link.gif
* blueroom_new.gif
* blueroom_new_lock.gif
* blueroom_old.gif
* blueroom_old_lock.gif

They are in the correct image folder for the style.

I have tried several prefix in the "Prefix for Forum Status Images" section of forum manager, could you tell me how to display the above correctly?

Try:
blueroom_

I have, no luck...

Do you have a link to the page that isn't showing the icons?

edit: You've got the names wrong, they should be:

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