Problem with Post Icon alignment

[SBlueman]

For some reason my post icons are displaying "outside the box" and I don't know how to fix it. Any suggestions?

[Princeton]

that's because they are too wide ..
I believe the fix would be to create smaller post icons or modify function construct_icons() in functions_newpost.php (shorten the number of columns).

Here is the solution.

Find /includes/functions_newpost.php
Find this code

PHP Code:

    while ($icon = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($icons))
    {
        $show['posticons'] = true;
        if ($numicons % 7 == 0 AND $numicons != 0)
        {
            $posticonbits .= "</tr><tr><td>&nbsp;</td>";
        }

        $numicons++;

        $iconid = $icon['iconid'];
        $iconpath = $icon['iconpath'];
        $alttext = $icon['title'];
        if ($seliconid == $iconid)
        {
            $iconchecked = 'checked="checked"';
            $selectedicon = array('src' => $iconpath, 'alt' => $alttext);
        }
        else
        {
            $iconchecked = '';
        }

        ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('posticons_bit')) ? eval($hook) : false;

        eval('$posticonbits .= "' . fetch_template('posticonbit') . '";');

    }

    $remainder = $numicons % 7;

    if ($remainder)
    {
        $remainingspan = 2 * (7 - $remainder);
        $show['addedspan'] = true; 


Find everywhere it has "7" and change that to the number of columns you would like. In my case, I wanted 3, so I changed it to :

PHP Code:

    while ($icon = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($icons))
    {
        $show['posticons'] = true;
        if ($numicons % 3 == 0 AND $numicons != 0)
        {
            $posticonbits .= "</tr><tr><td>&nbsp;</td>";
        }

        $numicons++;

        $iconid = $icon['iconid'];
        $iconpath = $icon['iconpath'];
        $alttext = $icon['title'];
        if ($seliconid == $iconid)
        {
            $iconchecked = 'checked="checked"';
            $selectedicon = array('src' => $iconpath, 'alt' => $alttext);
        }
        else
        {
            $iconchecked = '';
        }

        ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('posticons_bit')) ? eval($hook) : false;

        eval('$posticonbits .= "' . fetch_template('posticonbit') . '";');

    }

    $remainder = $numicons % 3;

    if ($remainder)
    {
        $remainingspan = 2 * (3 - $remainder);
        $show['addedspan'] = true; 


DONE!
