Default icon only for the first message in a thread?

Hi there,

does anyone has a clue if it is hard to hack that?

Referring to http://161.58.84.213/forum/showthrea...threadid=19592 I would like to show a default icon only for the first Message in a topic, so that there's no "empty icon" on forumdisplay-view

Thanks for any hint,
-Tom

Hi again,

yes works perfect in 2.0.3
My bad I read your post too late dwh here's my edit in functions.php:

Comment or remove the following

PHP Code:

        if ($showdeficon) {
            $post[icon]='<img src="{ imagesfolder}/icons/icon1.gif" border="0" alt="">';
        } 


cu,
-Tom

P.S.: Installing fresh on 2.0.3: Edit codepiece in admin/functions.php as showing above and turn "Show default icon" ON in your vB's Control Panel.

Please note the blank within { imagesfolder} which doesn't appear in the orginal code - was left there intentionally because it would be parsed by vb as code...

Eh? Just turn the option on and remove the code from showthread.php that puts in the default icon. You will then get the icon on all the posts on the forumdisplay listing but not when viewing threads. In other words remove this from showthread.php

    if ($showdeficon) {
      $post[icon]='<img src="images/icons/icon1.gif" border="0" alt="">';
    }

and turn the option MasMind mentioned on.

I can't find that. I'm using 2.2.1 also.

The code to be removed is in admin/functions.php now.

I searched for it with the Find feature several times and nothing came up in admin/functions.php.

Line 127-129 in a clean version of admin/functions.php.
