This is an automated version of these hacks:

by Starbug & Adrian., all credit goes to them for the original concept. Thanks to Brad Flynn for his help also.
Also: Thank you to BadgerDog for noticing I missed an ID off one of the find instructions
What it does:
Allows you to use a set of custom icons on a per forum basis. No settings needed, the plugin will look for a set of images that meet the conditions I outline in the instructions and display them if they exist. The default VB icons if they don't.
NOTE:
You will need your forum icons to be named like this:
forumx_old.gif
forumx_old_lock.gif
etc...
where x is the forum id number
for the new images to work. If you don't, only the defaults will appear.
Please Remember to make all 4 icons "new" "old" "new_lock" & "old_lock" an error has been reported that if all 4 don't exist, guests and unregistered may not see the default icons.
Instructions:
Use either the installer or the plugin to make a new plugin.
OR create it yourself on the on the forumbit_display hook. With this code:
In forumhome_forumbit_level1_post find:
Replace with:
In forumhome_forumbit_level2_post find:
Replace with:
Spoiler (click to open)
To automate this somewhat....
make a new plugin on the forumbit_display hook.
In the template edits, replace the authors code with this (its still the authors code...which is why i'm not releasing it as my own...its just moved around and with a few conditionals):
If it works (it does for me) it should replace for forums that have an image in the right folder, otherwise display the default. The best of both worlds
Enjoy!
make a new plugin on the forumbit_display hook.
Code:
$showCustom[$forum['forumid']] = false;
if (is_file("path/to/forum/images/statusicon/forum".$forum['forumid']."_new.gif")) {
$showCustom[$forum['forumid']] = true;
}
Code:
<td> <if condition="$vboptions[customimg_enabled] == 1"> <if condition="$forum[customimg] == ''"> <if condition="$showCustom[$forum[forumid]] == true"> <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum$forum[forumid]_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /> <else /> <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" /> </if> <else /> <img src="$forum[customimg]" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" /> </if> <else /> <if condition="$showCustom[$forum[forumid]] == true"> <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum$forum[forumid]_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /> <else /> <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" /> </if> </if> </td>
