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

Where exactly is this: "Go to Options > Catagory Icons to enable the mod"

I've gone through the entire admincp -> vBulletin options and can't find it.

I have added my icons using <img src="http:example.com/cat-icons/test.gif"> to my forums, but no images display.

NM, The import of the product must not have fully worked the first time. Reinstalled and the option shows up. Thanks...

This mod is realy great!
I have added it recently to our forum -> http://forum.team-mediaportal.com

Would it be possible to expand this modification, to define custom category icons for "forum_old" and "forum_new"?

which means, haveing the same functionality with the custom category images, as with the main vbulletin feature, to see if a forum contains new posts or not.

Hi Adrian,

I used to have something like this installed for version 3.5.4 which looked like the attached image I have.

The image here was to the right of the status icon, thus allowing the users to know of new posts. After I upgraded to version 3.6.4, I found your hack, which works very nicely btw, but instead of being to the right of the status icons, it replaces the status icons.

Is there a way to make it so it's to the right, like I had before?

Many thanks,

~ Domokun

- Image below was the older one I used to have for 3.5.4 -

What I had was an older version for vB 3.5.4. I'm also stuck on trying to figure out how to get it to look like this since I just upgraded to vB 3.6.4

~ Domokun

p.s. I was kinda hoping Adrian would have our answer

This looks great, but the one problem I have with these types of modifications is you lose the new/old icon to show which forums have new posts and which ones don't. IMO that's important and it's the only reason I don't use this.
