I wanted to change the unread and read board icons but it's not working.

I've put new icons in the same directory with the same name, and deleted the old ones, but the old ones (the ones above) are still displaying.

Probably in the /Themes/default/images instead of the images folder of your theme?

no, they have to be in the theme the op is using, not the default. those images are always called per theme.

Did you check for a repeated image? I had the same issue when changing that, there are two different files for one of them, forgot which. They seem to be called in different instances.

Otherwise, just try doing a cache refresh, with ctrl + f5, as the old images will stay in your cache and display until you do that.

Nope, they're placed in the theme's images folder.

Clear your cache. Both forum and browsers. :p

Misunderstanding, I know that.... My question was about " put in the default (wrong) instead of the one that he uses"  ;)

they are not duplicated.

on displays for new posts in the board
on2 displays for new posts in the child board, but no new posts in the parent board
off displays for no new posts.

and you have to clear your browser cache....

Ah, that explains it. Couldn't figure out what it was for. I thought it was duplicated because I remembered the image being the same, but looking again, yeah, they have a slight difference.
