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

Okay... a couple of people PM'd me about how I put the images by the forum name... this is what I did...

this is my forumhome_forumbit_level1_post

Code:
<tbody>
	<tr align="center">
		<td class="alt1Active" colspan="2" align="$stylevar[left]" id="f$forum[forumid]">
		
		<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
		<tr>
			<td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" /></td>
			<td><img src="$vboptions[cleargifurl]" alt="" width="9" height="1" border="0" /></td>
			<td>
<if condition="$vboptions[customimg_enabled] == 1">
	<if condition="$forum[customimg] == ''">
		

<else />
		<img src="$forum[customimg]" alt="" border="5" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" align="left" style="border-color: #ffffff;" />
</if>

<else />
</if>
			<div>
				<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><strong>$forum[title]</strong></a>
				<if condition="$show['browsers']"><span class="smallfont">(<phrase 1="$forum[browsers]">$vbphrase[x_viewing]</phrase>)</span></if>
			</div>
			<if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if>
			<if condition="$show['forumsubscription']"><div class="smallfont"><strong><a href="subscription.php?$session[sessionurl]do=removesubscription&amp;f=$forum[forumid]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[unsubscribe_from_this_forum]</a></strong></div></if>
			<if condition="$show['subforums']"><div class="smallfont" style="margin-top:$stylevar[cellpadding]px"><strong>$vbphrase[subforums]</strong>: $forum[subforums]</div></if>
			</td>
		</tr>
		</table>
		
		</td>
		<td class="alt2" nowrap="nowrap">$forum[lastpostinfo]</td>
		<td class="alt1">$forum[threadcount]</td>
		<td class="alt2">$forum[replycount]</td>
		<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
		<td class="alt1"><div class="smallfont">$forum[moderators]&nbsp;</div></td>
		</if>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<if condition="$childforumbits">
<tbody>
	$childforumbits
</tbody>
</if>
and here's my forumhome_forumbit_level2_post

Code:
<tr align="center">
	<td class="alt2"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" /></td>
	<td class="alt1Active" align="$stylevar[left]" id="f$forum[forumid]">

<if condition="$vboptions[customimg_enabled] == 1">
	<if condition="$forum[customimg] == ''">
		

<else />
		<img src="$forum[customimg]" alt="" border="5" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" align="left" style="border-color: #ffffff;" />
</if>

<else />
</if>
		<div>
			<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><strong>$forum[title]</strong></a>
			<if condition="$show['browsers']"><span class="smallfont">(<phrase 1="$forum[browsers]">$vbphrase[x_viewing]</phrase>)</span></if>
		</div>
		<if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if>
		<if condition="$show['forumsubscription']"><div class="smallfont"><strong><a href="subscription.php?$session[sessionurl]do=removesubscription&amp;f=$forum[forumid]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[unsubscribe_from_this_forum]</a></strong></div></if>
		<if condition="$show['subforums']"><div class="smallfont" style="margin-top:$stylevar[cellpadding]px"><strong>$vbphrase[subforums]</strong>: $forum[subforums]</div></if>
	</td>
	<td class="alt2" nowrap="nowrap">$forum[lastpostinfo]</td>
	<td class="alt1">$forum[threadcount]</td>
	<td class="alt2">$forum[replycount]</td>

Thanks for the mod. It's just what I'm looking for.

A couple of questions. Does it work in 3.6.8? And I want to replace all the category icons on the main page of my forum with just the one icon rather than a number of different icons, will your mod enable me to do that?

Thanks again.

In my eagerness to get my board looking just right, I decided to take a chance and install the product. It's working beautifully. So, yes, the product works with vBulletin 3.6.8. A big thank you to the designer for his fine work.

By the way, this is the first product I've installed on my board.

I no longer need the Forum Contains New Posts and the Forum Contains Old Posts icons sitting at the bottom of my message board. Does anybody know what code I have to edit to get rid of them?

Great hack, still think this should be standard on VB!

I installed it, but am having trouble having the custom icons show up in the forums that are subforums.
Is that something not possible?
