Remove Message Icons?

[lordrene]

Is there any mod or code that can be replaced to remove the message icons as a whole out of the post form

[Arantor]

No, there isn't.

This is the perfect mod, Can you update it? http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2710

1. Mods for 2.0.3 will work fine on 2.0.9. It might not work on all themes, and it can leave other things in a slightly broken state glancing at the code.

2. I don't have the power to just update mods even if I have the skill for it, there are little matters regarding copyright law to deal with.

Need this removed

[Arantor]

Why?

The mod is still working according to my test just now. And it will remove hot topic icons and message icons in the stated four places i.e. in messsage index, display, recent and post templates. Do read the OP for the mod as it also states mods to remove hot topic icons and message icons separately.

This mod remove hot topic and message icons at all places, i.e in messsage index, display, recent and post templates.

Updated so there is no need to tick anything in Admin Center, i.e. the mod will work immediately upon installation.

To only remove hot topic icon, use RemoveHotTopicIcon1111.zip.

To only remove message icon, use RemoveMessageIcon111.zip.

Hey, this is the error i get!

Mod only works on a plain SMF installation. If you have made any changes to the said file, especially with the relevant code, you will get the error(s). All you need to do is modify all the said files manually based on the said mod and you are good to go. I will into that mod again if I got time today.

</td>

The context of my answer was that there isn't anything premade. Of course it could be done to remove it. I'm not sure your code wouldn't cause issues with the JavaScript that runs on a topic page to handle quick modification of icons with AJAX though.

Thank You!! It worked
