Forum Icons is a product that adds an option in the edit/add new forum page to set a forum icon.

To make it work, you will need to make a template modification, I did try to do it with a plugin, but got frustrated trying but failing to make it work.

I promise I will be looking into this so we don't have to edit any template, but in the meantime...

How to Install:


1- Upload the product xml file.
2- Edit forumhome_forumbit_level2_post
Find:
Code:
<vb:if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><p class="forumdescription">{vb:raw forum.description}</p></vb:if>
Replace it with:
Code:
<vb:if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><p class="forumdescription"><vb:if condition="$forum['iconlocation']"><img src="{vb:raw forum.iconlocation}" alt="{vb:raw forum.title}" style="float: left; margin-right: 4px;" /></vb:if>{vb:raw forum.description}</p>
					<vb:elseif condition="$forum['iconlocation']" /><p class="forumdescription"><img src="{vb:raw forum.iconlocation}" alt="{vb:raw forum.title}" /></p></vb:if>

If you use it, please mark it as installed

It took a lot of trial and error to get this right - If you like what you see, please make a PayPal donation to mcs@sunwave.net to cover my time in getting this done. Thank you.

1) Install a fresh copy of this mod

2) Open up : Styles and Templates / Style Mananger / Edit Templates / Forum Home Templates / forumhome_forumbit_level2_post


Look for :
Code:
<div class="datacontainer">

Add this code after that line :
Code:
<div style="float: left; margin-right: 5px;">
<vb:if condition="$forum['iconlocation']"><a href="{vb:link forum, {vb:raw forum}}"><img src="{vb:raw forum.iconlocation}" alt="{vb:raw forum.title}" /></a></vb:if>
</div>
<div style="float: left; width: 90%;">


Look for :
Code:
<vb:if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><p class="forumdescription">{vb:raw forum.description}</p></vb:if>

Replace that line with :
Code:
<vb:if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><p class="forumdescription">{vb:raw forum.description}</p></vb:if></div>


That's it! - Hit the "Save and Reload" button and your done.

This will show the icon to the left of the title and description. Also, if you hover your mouse over the icon, it will show that board titles name. If you click on the icon, it will take you to that boards location.

I hope you enjoy it - any donations would be greatly appreciated.

Here is what the results will look like :

how can I make it sit on top of the description thanks.

For some reason this mod doesn't work for me. I'm using vB 4.0.3 and the image doesn't show up even when the path is correctly.
Instead of showing the image it just shows the forum name again in the description (on the place where the icon should be).

Please help me.

Could you share more detailed instructions on how you did it for your australiabound site? The icons look good there!

Another much better solution is this:

In forum manager --> forum --> Subject
Put in the name field before the forum category name this code:

<img src="http://www.yourdomain.com/iconname.jpg" border="0" />

and you have icons in all subforums as well.
