Dismounted,

Could you take a look at this code....

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=99829

....to see why it's not pulling the custom icons? I'm sure it's because the code/mod was written before the ability to add the custom prefix within the forum manager, so it's not 'looking' for that.

Can you take a look at it because there a few of us on that thread that need help and Veccy (who's trying to help us even though it's not his mod) has some time constraints and hasn't gotten back to us in a few days.

Even if I do find the problem, I would not be able to distribute it. The copyright rests solely with Xenon, and without his permission, nothing much can be done.

Unfortunately, Xenon hasn't been online (at least to vB.org) since September of last year.

Hopefully Veccy (who's trying to help us) can find a solution for us non-coders.

Thanks for responding anyways Dismounted.

So, in essence, I could use....

"whatever_" within the field on the forum manager.

...then, I can name them like this....

whatever_forum_link.gif
whatever_forum_new.gif
whatever_forum_new_lock.gif
whatever_forum_old.gif
whatever_forum_old_lock.gif

....and just upload the "whatever" versions of these images to my forumicons directory. Which, in turn, will eliminate the standard (or whatever you have in there) images for those particular forums that you specify the prefix in and replace them with the "whatever" images.

I'm going to try this on another site that I wanted to use it on. :up:



i'm very glad i came across this thread, because i almost unnecessarily installed a hack to do this exact same thing


the only small thing i'd point out is that the directory where the icons need to be loaded is called "statusicon", not "forumicons"

How do I access the "forumicons directory"? I can't find this info ANYWHERE. Thanks.

the directory is /forums/images/statusicon/ or just /images/statusicon/ if the forums are installed in your web root.

Attached are 4 sample graphics I use... I use the same image for forum_new_lock and forum_old_lock.
