For a small consideration ($160 per hour) I can give you more. :) I don't know how serious you were, but I can assure you that when someone mentions the likelihood of payment for service, they will have my total, undivided attention.

is this serious?

we have to pay for features like this?

can we not just add more image files into the folder where the topic icons are stored?

Kunena is completely open source; you can extend or change it any way that you like. When we receive vague requests like "I want more", they are unlikely to be taken seriously unless there a somewhat more precise specification accompanying such open-ended requests. I had little doubt in my mind that the original request - "I want more" - was a frivolous one and I think my response has confirmed this to be the case. I was definitely not being frivolous when I wrote what I wrote.

You can add/change or extend the range of topic icons as much as you like. In what specific way would you like help to achieve whatever it is that you want to achieve? Many people do not consider it unreasonable to state, up front, the basis on which they will provide unfettered help; but, you have remember, there is a limit to how much help we are prepared to offer. I was merely setting a boundary on the extent to which I am prepared to offer "unlimited help" to anyone who requests it. I don't think that my response was an unreasonable one in these circumstances.

Look the file icons.php in default template or active template.

components/com_kunena/template/default/icons.php

and Update the new icons in:

components/com_kunena/template/default/images/icons (default or active template)

Example topic icons in icons.php file
Code:
**/ // Topic icons $topic_emoticons = array (); $topic_emoticons [0] = 'topic-default.gif'; $topic_emoticons [1] = 'topic-exclamation.png'; $topic_emoticons [2] = 'topic-question.png'; $topic_emoticons [3] = 'topic-mark.png'; $topic_emoticons [4] = 'topic-love.png'; $topic_emoticons [5] = 'topic-grin.png'; $topic_emoticons [6] = 'topic-shock.png'; $topic_emoticons [7] = 'topic-smile.png';

this is exactly the answer that I want, thank you ;)

I know how to change topic icons via a noob hack (ie. something really simple even noobs can do it). Its the same process as per K1.5.

1) Click on "New Topic"
2) Right Click on a topic icon and copy its image location URL
3) Via FTP, go to that location
4) Rename the image to something (e.g.: topic-grinORIGINAL.png)
5) Upload/copy to the same location your NEW topic icon using the original name

- its important that your new topic icon be similar in size to the original topic icons and in the same file format (and, of course, have the original name of what you renamed and are "replacing")

Repeat these steps for all the topic icons you want to change.

Be aware that since this is a hack, these manual changes might get lost in future upgrades of Kunenea.

I do not know how to create Additional topic icons to the ones that are already there. Anyone know how to do this?

Sharing and caring!
