Merged How to create category and sub-category icons in K 2.0

Hi folks!

I'd like personalize kunena inserting a different image to category and sub-category.

I read an howto but only to change an image category.

Can you help me?

thanks!

You need to create 2 gif images for any category and place them in folder
/JOOMLA root / media / kunena / category_images/

with and height of images should be 32px x 32px

Names of images must be:

66_on.gif
66_off.gif

where 66 is category ID.

66_on.gif will display when new posts are present in this category
66_off.gif will display in all other case.

for other category with ID 128

names of images should be

128_on.gif
128_off.gif

etc...

For subcategories names of images are:

ID_on_childsmall.gif
ID_off_childsmall.gif

Hope this helps.

TKtemp is right. The procedure in K 2.0 is the same as the procedure used in K 1.7 .

The procedure is documented in Category icons in the Wiki.

Hi,

I would like to be able to use the facility of category image path. I created a folder "kunena/category_images" as described in the tool-tip for Kunena configuration, and populated it with the appropriate images. Now do I now link individual images in the folder with the corresponding category?

Any help on this would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

you do not need to create any folder, it is created automatically on installation of Kunena.

how can I insert a different image for each category of the forum that I create?

Convert the images into the relevant format and then try to create sub categories.

after creating the subcategories we can insert the image.
