cbi v0.5 (Custom Board Icons)

[Neubivljiv]

Very nice mod.

1) I have few question. On mousehover over icons I get >info<: "No icon set". Icons works fine, i only see that message on mousehover. Just wonder is that normal or not?

2) What is difference between on.png and on2.png?

[Daegaladh]

I got an error when trying to install in 1.1.11, please update for this ver.

[Kindred]

on2.png is used when there are new messages in a child board of the displayed board.

See this post to fix that.

Can this mod be used with Default Theme - Core 1.1.11 and in Themes\Core 2.0 RC2? Thanks

[Kindred]

this mod can be used with any theme....   but it may require you to manually code it into boardindex.template.php in your theme

[jcommander]

Thanks Kindred, can you give me a link as to where to learn how to do that, specially with v. 2.0 RC 2 please?

[Kindred]

look at the manual installation instructions for the mod (link is on the mod download page)

[jcommander]

You mean the part with the instructions as to what part to look up and then replace/add it by some other code?

[Kindred]

yup

[jcommander]

Thanks, I will give it a try.

Hello, I tried to manually install the codes into my Index Template file, but when I replaced what i was told to replace, my board turned into looking like this: http://www.blizzcraft.net/index.php

the icons appear, but the board is wack.

this is my code:

We can only see a login screen. What version are you using and why are you modifying the index.template.

[jcommander]

Hey, Bigguy! this mod is working very good with my smf version (1.1.11) Thanks for sharing this.

[FFSFFS]

when I installed it, it wouldn't install onto my BlackRain theme - I'm using 2.0RC2 - so I try to add it to my template manually.

[Bigguy]

Parse the code on the mod download page and add the code where it says to. Not in the index.template.

Hello there.
