I installed it on a clean test board and the option to supply the link to the image simple doesn't appear...

I checked and re-checked my edits and no idea what's wrong. Although I have a feeling it has to do with:

Is not working for me, with vb 3.5.4, but finally, I found a way to make it work.

For me it seams that $forum[forumhomeicon] shows the value, only if it is NOT like this "<img src=" LINK GO"S HERE ">" I mean that if I write "testing" on the forum icon, admin field, I get the text "testing" at forum index beside the forum, but if I put a valid image code like this "<img src="http://www.url.com/path/to/image.gif">" on forum icon field, nothing appears in my index

Then to solve it, in template changes, instead of putting this "$forum[forumhomeicon]" I used this <img src="$forum[forumhomeicon]"> and then it works when I put an image urle on the forum icon field

May it be about the "" character? Don’t know. Or may it be about the vbulletin version? don’t think so. I didn’t see anything, at the code, which would interfere with the vb version to work only with vb 3.5.0 RC1 or RC2. Why are you saying that it only works with those versions? Which is the incompatibility?


Finally I wonder to put the icon on my threadbit template, but I don’t know how to call the $forum[forumhomeicon] on this template.

Any one could help please?

Finally I found a way on my own to do what I wanted to

For showing the forum icon in searches such as “new posts” option I do this:

1 add new plugin
Hook Location : search_results_threadbit
Content something like this:
You must first be a registered member to view any code.
2 Edit threadbit template adding something like this
You must first be a registered member to view any code.
where you want it to appear

If you are using the original hack without the modification I talk about in last post, then, the template edit would be just like this:
You must first be a registered member to view any code.
I suppose that this is not the cleaner way to do this, but is all I can do with my knowledge, then, if anyone could improve it better, please let us know
