Want to display icons in place of certain tags
 

Alright, I recently enabled tags on a forum I'm newly an admin on, and people are suggesting icons in place of tags in a subforum called "Gaming."

So basically if a thread is tagged "wii, action-adventure, zelda" I want the threadbit to ignore the action-adventure and zelda tags, and display an icon for the Nintendo Wii in place of the "wii" tag.

I'm thinking something like...

<if condition="$show['taglist'] AND $forumid == 41">
<if condition="inarray('playstation', $thread[taglist])">$psx_icon</if>
<if condition="inarray('n64', $thread[taglist]")>$n64_icon</if>
</if>

I'm just not sure if $thread[taglist] is an array. And if it's not I need to know how to turn it into one using PHP functions that are safe to use in conditionals.

You would be much better off doing this in a plugin. Find when the tags are processed in showthread.php, and I'm sure there is a hook there to play with. :)

I've resigned myself to this fact too. Well, time to learn me some PHP (luckily I have a CS degree).
