UBB.Developers Forums UBB.threads 6 V6 Modifications Archived Mods Adding Post Icons to 6.0.1

Here is a text that I wrote up explaining how to add more icons to the Post Icon selections. It is one template to edit, plus one or two images to upload.

I have not seen this listed on these boards yet, so I thought I'd share this easy alteration. Hard to even call this a hack, LOL

Thanks for sharing that information, since there aren't any descriptions on how to do things in threads new admins just have to guess. This will probably be appreciated.

The imagesize is set in the file imagesizes.php in the threads directory. The following lines (at 56 and 57) sets the size of the icons:

code:
//   $images['icons'] = $size['3'];
   $images['icons'] = "width="15" height="15"";

---

You can change the width and height settings on the second of those lines if you know what they are. Otherwise, change the lines to this:

code:
   $images['icons'] = $size['3'];
//   $images['icons'] = "width="15" height="15"";

---

Which will set the size according to the size of the book.gif icon. Unfortunately, all icons has to be the same size.
If you want the icons to show up in their correct size you could change the above mentioned lines into this:

code:
//   $images['icons'] = $size['3'];
//   $images['icons'] = "width="15" height="15"";
   $images['icons'] = ""

---

I haven't tested it, but I think it should work.

Sounds good, but I'll just take the lazy route for now and stick with standard smiles hehe

I put oversized smiles in the graemlins area for peeps to play with. They get used all the time and add quite a bit of life to the boards!
