(RD) [Template Request] Link icons in LEGEND - main page

[Former Member]

If its possible with a template -

LEGEND - Main page icons

To link the  NEW POST icon to link to - RECENT THREADS

And the NO NEW POST icon - to link to  - RECENT POSTS

New post Icon - No New Post Icon - That Show on the LEGEND - On The Main PAGE

So it would work something like this

See image below
Ignore the highlighted green colour it's to show the idea on what each button would do
when clicked on taking you to recent threads page or recent posts page

I had ago at doing it myself

Tested - In  Chrome - Opera - Firefox - Internet Explorer

Go - admin - Layout Templates - Home

And look for this bit of code

<div class="content">
<table>
<tr>
{foreach $[legend]}
<td>$[legend.icon]<span>$[legend.name]</span></td>
{/foreach}
</tr>
</table>
           </div>

And Replace it with this - So the new code goes Directly Under

<div class="container legend">
<div class="title-bar"><h2>Legend</h2></div>


Replace It With This

<div><center><br><a href="YOUR FORUM RECENT THREAD LINK HERE"><img src="YOUR FORUM NEW POST IMG LINK HERE" alt="Recent Threads" /></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
               <a href="YOUR FORUM RECENT POST LINK HERE"><img src="YOUR FORUM NO NEW POST IMG LINK HERE" alt="Recent Posts" /></a>
               <br>New Threads&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Recent Posts</center></div>



YOU WILL NEED TO ADD YOUR FORUMS RECENT THREAD LINK
&
AND YOUR FORUMS RECENT POST LINK

YOUR FORUMS NEW POST IMG LINK
YOUR NO NEW POST IMG LINK

If you don't want the icons aligned center remove the <center> tags

SCREENSHOT HOW IT LOOKS ON MY FORUM

Clicking on the New thread icon will take you to the recent thread page
And clicking on the Recent post icon will take you to the recent post page
I also used the switchit code to rename the text

Reminder you can always click on the PREVIEW button to view how it will look & test
Before you click and save any changes to your template

I had to wrap it in a <div> so it will work in IE
I use to love IE lol
