this for 1.1.9 ?

Bigguy

SMF 2.0 Sorry I should have stated that. Earlier versions of the mod should still work with 1.1.9. However they will not be updated.

Hello Bigguy.   Great mod.     Installed on a friends test forum - SMF 2.0RC1-1 
Installed cbi-155

Im seeing an issue:

1.   Spacing for the Board Names:   Board names are now pushed up against the left side of the block on all themes

If you need her test forums url I'll need to send it to you via PM

SMF Version: 2.0 RC3 | Mods installed: Simple Portal 2.3.2, Aeva 7.0, Member Color Link 3.0.7, SA Battle 1.0 RC1 Rev146 , SMF Arcade 2.5 RC1, Arcade Skin 2.5 RC1

Due to a couple edits I missed that were pointed out to me just now I have updated the cbi mod once again. It should now work properly. I'm very sorry to everyone that downloaded the last one. Please, uninstall that, re-download the package (cbi155) and install it. Again I am sorry for any troubles this may have caused.

Edit: Ok got it to install, however, how do I use it?

Bigguy

Read the readme that comes with it. It should all be explained there.

Hyoga

I created all the icons and put them in the specified folders, however It is not working, what else am I missing, I can't really figure anything out by the readme file, can you pls give me a step by step walktrough?

What about the problems with the version for 1.x? Will those bugs be fixed?

I had to give up on this mod since the problems I had (see page 23) didn't get resolved. I'm on SMF 1.1.9 because I am not comfortable running pre-release code on a production site. SMF 2 could still be many months away... it's been 4 months since RC1 was released and there's talk of maybe 2 more RCs before release. I'd really like to get this working, though. The default theme board icons make my forum look bad.

Try an early version of the mod, before 1.5.4 and see if it works. It should not have any bugs in it.

I was using 1.0a when I tried it.

Bigguy

What bug did you find. I know of none that were in that version. ???

You should really update to the latest version of SMF to keep you and your members safe. I take it you have tried the latest version as well. ??? What theme are you using. Did you install any code manually. ???

Well, back when I wrote that post, 1.1.7 was the latest version. ;) I'm currently on 1.1.9.

QuoteI take it you have tried the latest version as well. ???
Latest (stable) version of SMF? Yes. Latest version of CBI? You told me to use 1.0a on SMF 1.1.x.

QuoteWhat theme are you using.
Default

QuoteDid you install any code manually. ???
Only those mods that required manual installation. I didn't do any custom by-hand code, no.

Bigguy

Try the latest version and see what happens. I would think it would give some errors but try it anyway.

Heh, you make me nervous now. :)

It indeed does fail on the following files:
./Themes/default/MessageIndex.template.php
./Themes/default/BoardIndex.template.php

I manually made the changes to the best of my abilities (after making backup copies, of course), then forced the install and copied over my changed files. Same problem as before: all the boards/topics show "No icon set" instead of the default icon. According to your posts, even with this mod the default icon should be shown unless one has been set up properly.

I've uninstalled and copied the original files back pending your next suggestion.
