Hi kingkingston...
No, the screenshot is the only demo...
Sorry

Here's how it is. It is a matter of giving creative and can do many nice things! :)

Just to clarify (And I HATE doing this, coz this topic will appear in "Replies" forever), the image for category 1 will be named 1.png? Or 1.0.png?

I tried both and, well...

(https://www.simplemachines.org/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.readthesmiths.com%2Farticles%2FImages%2FHumor%2FFail%2Ffbksxv.jpg&hash=f752f7467ed08e8554ec1822d8cb86e9523fc0c6)

Can I also point out that the English:

<img src="', $settings['images_url'],'/categories/', $category['id']." png"

is subtly different from the Spanish:

<img src="', $settings['images_url'],'/categories/', $category['id'], '.png"

Note, in the Spanish, the comma, after ['id] and the full-stop (period) before png, which are different from the English.

jaja good clarification. The number of the category without the .0
Example:
YESSS!!! 1.png
BADDDD!!! 1.0.png

:)

Bugger.

Neither's working, for me.

/me goes for a fiddle-around...

Sorry, my mistake was editing
<img src="', $settings['images_url'],'/categories/', $category['id'], '.png"

Yep. That's how I took it. :)

Best to put that right, though, coz some people know less about php than even I do, believe it, or not! ;)

Just in case anyone else runs into this, the install didn't add the "categories" directory and contents to my custom themes.

If you can't get images to show, on custom themes, check that out. :)

Hi, looking for something similar but with the banners actually after the description of each section like the attached image (for 2.0 RC5 ) Thanks. :)

i tried that - and it works fine (I just did it left-aligned instead of centered) - but... - what about the "Unread messages" is located in normal next to the category name - is it possible to set a link around that pic ( eg. 1.png) which opens

http://forums-url.de/index.php?action=unread;c=[1 (ID_of_category]

cheers inti31

Addition:
that one is needed to link that image with unread messages

<a href="/index.php?action=unread;c=', $category['id'],'"><img style="color:red;font-weight:bold;font-size:18px;" src="', $settings['images_url'],'/categories/', $category['id'], '.jpg" alt="', $category['name'],'" /></a>

this mod works fine - for members - guests can't see categories - how to fix that?

Yes I got the same problem for guest don't work please any help about that?

thanks

Try searching for:

if (!$context['user']['is_guest'] && !empty($category['show_unread']))


and replace for:

if (!empty($category['show_unread']))

Hi!

Sorry where search this line? i'm a noob  ::)

Ey!

I tried and don't work I modified BoardIndex.template.php

Thanks!

Did anyone find out why guests can't see the image? as I have the same problem and the edit above doesn't make any difference.
