Forum Home Enhancements - Status Icons - Different Images for each Forum with opacity!

If you want to have different images for each forum that you have created inside your vbulletin board as you can see in this two picture:


Before (pay attention: there are some category with opacity 0.5: this are the category with old threads)



After (firefox icon is changed)



For doing this you have to install before this Add-on: Forum Icons (I put as attachment the product that you need)
BUT
1. Install only the product
2. Go Into Admincp --> Forum and Moderators; Modify each forum putting the path of each image where it says "Add the path to the icon image here."
3. Go Into Admincp --> Styles and Templates --> Manage Templates;
Edit forumhome_forumbit_level2_post

Find:

            <img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_statusicon}/{vb:raw forum.imageprefix}forum_{vb:raw forum.statusicon}-48.png" class="forumicon" id="forum_statusicon_{vb:raw forum.forumid}" alt="" />

Replace With:

            <vb:if condition="$forum['iconlocation']">
                <img src="{vb:raw forum.iconlocation}" class="forumicon" alt="{vb:raw forum.title}" style="opacity: <vb:if condition="$forum['statusicon'] == 'old'">0.5<vb:else />1</vb:if>;" id="forum_statusicon_{vb:raw forum.forumid}" />
            <vb:else />
                <img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_statusicon}/{vb:raw forum.imageprefix}forum_{vb:raw forum.statusicon}-48.png" class="forumicon" id="forum_statusicon_{vb:raw forum.forumid}" alt="" />
            </vb:if>

If you want, you can change the opacity searching "0.5" in my code.
Enjoy it and don't forget to Mark as Installed!

Ps: sorry for my bad english, i'm Italian

Anybody?

[Noli]

just installed it on the latest version of vbulletin.

i have the product installed, changed the template and added images to every forum but nothing is displayed, any ideas?

Pretty cool, but if this doesn't work for you then go look for 'Forum Icons' in mods. Works on 4.0.2 and adds sub icons next to the new/old post icons.
