if you planned to upload your MOD to the MOD DB, you should remove this from the header :

Code: Select all

## Security Disclaimer: This MOD Cannot Be Posted To Or Added At Any Non-Official phpBB Sites

Then,

Only tested on 2.0.4, will update to 2.0.6 compatible in later version

Again, make it compatible with phpBB 2.0.6 first, test it and then, upload it

I'm getting this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ';'
admin_forums.php
Line 349

I think line 349 is this bit of code:

'DESCRIPTION' => $forumdesc, // Forum Icon MOD
'ICON' => ( $forumicon ) ? $forumicon : '', // Forum Icon MOD
'ICON_DISPLAY' => ( $forumicon ) ? '<img src="../' . $forumicon . '" />' : '' // Forum Icon MOD

)

be careful about this part, the closing bracker ")" must be in the next line, not behind "// Forum Icon MOD"

This is how the code looks in file:

Code: Select all

'DESCRIPTION' => $forumdesc, // Forum Icon MOD
				'ICON' => ( $forumicon ) ? $forumicon : '', // Forum Icon MOD
				'ICON_DISPLAY' => ( $forumicon ) ? '<img src="../' . $forumicon . '" />' : '' // Forum Icon MOD
			);
			$template->pparse("body");
			break;

Thanks, works fine now.

How about instead of typing in images/icons/icon.gif

Couldn't you just have these in a drop down box?

how to have them in a drop down menu?
do you mean it list all the images in a certain folder in your server and allow you to choose which image you want for that forum? wonldn't it be easier for the user to type in whatever image name & path he/sher wants?

I just thought it would be easier with a drop down box.

I've added the mod for the drop down box for the rank images here:

http://www.phpbbhacks.com/viewhack.php?id=1448

Maybe you could use the same method.

Mmm... ok, that's what I think your previous post is asking for.

I'm not going to do that in this standard release, since having a empty text box is more flexible to the end user than a drop down box. an add-on could be written to give a different choice to people

This MOD has been denied by the phpBB MOD-Validation process, mainly due to template issues. A corrected version 1.0.2 has been re-submitted for validation

I've changed mod this to your updated version and I got the same error again, so I tried removing that extra bracket and now it's okay.

It's changed to this in the instruction

Code: Select all

				'DESCRIPTION' => $forumdesc, // Forum Icon MOD 
				'ICON' => ( $forumicon ) ? $forumicon : '', // Forum Icon MOD 
				'ICON_DISPLAY' => ( $forumicon ) ? '<img src="' . $phpbb_root_path . $forumicon . '" />' : '') // Forum Icon MOD

as long as the bracket is in the next line or before "// Forum Icon MOD" it would be fine

I've not read about easy mod and what should be done to made a mod usable with easy mod. So I think it's not at the moment
