Click on advanced at the bottom of your mod list and change it to rc3. Then install.

I'm running rc3 and under advance it's emulating rc3. When I try to install your mod it says it won't work with my version. Am I doing something wrong?

You're not. The package is set for rc4 only.  I will change it tonight for rc3 and rc4.  I'm at work now.

with RC3 installed I simply emulate RC4 and it works just fine

Sweet thank you for your help I really need to pickup a php book so I can understand these mods better.

Nice.

However, I do have a suggestion.
this would make it easier to abstract (i.e. build an admin interface to add/change the icon for any menu item) and would make it simpler for people like me who have 9+ additional menu items...

Instead of doing it like this:

Code Select Expand


'home' => array(
'title' => '<img align="absMiddle" src="'. $settings['images_url']. '/menu_icons/house.png" alt="'.$txt['home']. '"/>&nbsp; ' . $txt['home'],
'href' => $scripturl,
'show' => true,
'sub_buttons' => array(
),
'is_last' => $context['right_to_left'],
// 'target' => '_blank',
),


you could add a new object into the array, thus

Code Select Expand


'home' => array(
'title' => $txt['home'],
'href' => $scripturl,
'icon' => $settings['images_url']. '/menu_icons/house.png',
'show' => true,
'sub_buttons' => array(
),
'is_last' => $context['right_to_left'],
// 'target' => '_blank',
),

and then, you could call the image in the template_menu on output. or re-use it within the array itself.

Excellent idea thanx Kindred.   I likey

Hello

I have a problem with the "Menu Icons" and "SMF Media"
Could not set icon.

I have prepared the following line

Code Select Expand


'title' => '<img align="absMiddle" src="'. $settings['images_url']. '/menu_icons/smg.png" alt="'.$txt['media']. '"/>&nbsp; ' . $txt['media'],


And this is in the "Subs.php"

Code Select Expand


// Aeva Media changes
'media' => array(
'title' => (isset($txt['aeva_gallery']) ? $txt['aeva_gallery'] : 'Media') . (!allowedTo('aeva_access_unseen') || empty($user_info['aeva_unseen']) || $user_info['aeva_unseen'] == -1 ? '' : ' [<b>' . $user_info['aeva_unseen'] . '</b>]'),
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=media',
'show' => !empty($modSettings['aeva_enable_gallery']) && allowedTo('aeva_access'),
'sub_buttons' => !allowedTo('aeva_access_unseen') || empty($user_info['aeva_unseen']) || $user_info['aeva_unseen'] == -1 ? array() : array(



If I insert after

Code Select Expand


'media' => array(


no icons in the menu

and if I put the following

Code Select Expand


'title' => (isset($txt['aeva_gallery']) ? $txt['aeva_gallery'] : 'Media') . (!allowedTo('aeva_access_unseen') || empty($user_info['aeva_unseen']) || $user_info['aeva_unseen'] == -1 ? '' : ' [<b>' . $user_info['aeva_unseen'] . '</b>]'),



Icons there but no icon next to "Media" icon only

Enclosed is the icon of the "SMF Media" which I revised a bit, reduce the size of 16x16

Are there a solution?

Thanks

'show' => true,

The mod does not do that in the profile area.  Pretty much the icons are there in the general area.
