Different On/Off Icons for Different Boards[Library Support]

I'll give it a go and edit this post once I've just dewhitespaced it

I'm trying to install this plugin on my forum but it's not working. Instead of the image that should be showing, all I have is the text "no new post" or "new post", as the case may be. And that's only on the home page; all my boards & sub-boards are still showing the default folder icons. I saved my images to my Photobucket account and I used the "direct link". I tried them all but the others gave me an error message (which I was expecting). Currently the plugin is only installed on a test theme that I use for experimentation and which is only visible to admins.

I read this entire thread trying to find a solution to my problem and I see that template modifications can be a cause. I did make a few modifications to my template, but not many. And none that I can remember affect the board list.

Any ideas on how I can make this cool plugin work for my forum?  Also, what is "redirect"?

I'm going to need a link. And a redirect board is a board that basically redirects to a link of your choice.

Do you mean a link to my board? Should I install the plugin on a theme that is visible to all and not just admins? I'm unclear what I need to send you and also what I need to do. Feel free to PM me if you want. I tried to take a screen grab of the template, but that's just not possible.

Thanks for your help.

Yes a link to your board. It will need to be on a theme that I can see.

It won't be necessary. I figured it out from the pointers you gave me. It was a bit of work, but I absolutely love the result, and so do our members!

Thank you for taking the time to help me out

Hi Shorty! Is there a template fix for the side by side board list mod? With some work of my own on the td and classes I've gotten them to display but, hopefully you can help me further with making them display the actual different images instead of just the one.

Shorty,

For some odd reason, this plugin isn't working on this theme. The 150x150 place holder images are the board icons. I have a different image (that is black with white text) in place for the first board- however, no cigar. The .icon class is there and it is within a <td> so I'm at a loss.

I seem to have two questions about this plugin :-

1) What's the difference between On and Off icons for Boards ?

2) It seems direct URL images do not work, the image of the sub-board does not appear at all. Is it because the Image has to be of a Specific format ? Or do you have to use Image codes ?

Thanks.

Double Post.

I don't know what happened, but after a reported DDOS attach tonight the plugin stopped working. Any ideas?

[srf1516]

It's been fixed and all is working. Thanks

Still waiting for an answer.

I seem to be having an issue with this plug in. It works lovely when all the boards have the same image, but as soon as I try changing the image so boards have different ones, the image won`t work, and it de-aligns all of my boards. I`m not changing image size or anything so I don`t know what the issue is?

I should probably make sure I have all the fields/toggles filled in before freaking out and making support posts. Oops! Sorry for wasting your time and thanks for this awesome plugin!

I am also having a problem with this.
When I first used the plugin, about two months ago, direct links to images worked. They all showed up on the boards.
About three days ago, I opened up the plugin because I had added some new boards. I uploaded the pictures as usual and did everything the same as I did the first time two months ago. The boards resize themselves accordingly as if an image WAS there, but the actual image does not show.
Was I wrong before? Do direct links not work? Or is this a whole new problem entirely?
