Someone has sent me an PM about where to add the image
Maybe it's not apparent to WHERE it should be (although I though it shouldn't be difficult)

Anyway, after installing this mod, you can go to your ACP -> Forum Management
You can add an image to a forum by go into Adding Forums (for new forum) or Editing Forums (for existing forum)
There will now be an additional field for forum image path input.
Have that set up then the image are ready to show

Good Luck to all.

A good addition to this MOD should be to have a list box with all the icon possible for a forum, instead of entering the path of the file :)

Silly ?

I was wondering before I do this if I am correct or not in my asumption
The instructions say this
# Remember to change the table prefix used on your database
ALTER TABLE `phpbb2_forums` ADD `forum_icon` VARCHAR( 255 ) default NULL;


I don't have a phpbb2_forums table so I am thinking it is just phpbb_forums correct?

Also I didn't see anything else on it so I assume the remeber statement is rhetorical?

So I assume again I can just run the querry:

Code: Select all

ALTER TABLE `phpbb_forums` ADD `forum_icon` VARCHAR( 255 ) default NULL;
on phpmyadmin and that will do the trick?

thx

I knew it works on 2.0.4 & 2.0.6 becoz I've test on these two version, but have not try it on 2.0.5.

I don't think there is too much difference between the three version in the code you need to look for.
