Solved How can I change category and topic icons in Kunena 4.0.7 ??

Oops, sorry, wrong copy / paste .

Let's say I still want a newspaper as the default topic icon in my News-category, so I'll edit the xml-file accordingly :

<icon id="0" name="default" published="1" b2="file" b3="file" fa="newspaper-o" title="COM_KUNENA_ICON_DEFAULT" src="user/default.png" />

By moderating a message we can confirm that the change took effect :




All good so far. But when I go back to category view, all old threads still have the previous "file" topic icon :





I'd like to change these as well - to my new default topic icon - but I cannot figure out where this icon is defined?

Truly grateful for some advice as usual .

Many thanks in advance!

there is a bug in kunena, you see the icon type from the last category.


but if you use just 1 topic icon set for all, then this looks like cache.

So try to clean cache.

Thanks 810,

I am indeed using ony 1 topic icon set for all categories, but unfortunately, it did not help to clear the cache .

I have searched in all kunena files after a reference to "fa-file" but cannot find it anywhere. So I really don't know where to go from here :ohmy:.

- open the category manager - edit category - enter css class for icon

Can you elaborate? I’m also trying to figure this out.

This feature is for template that using bootstrap or fontawesome, or any other framework with icons.

So for example if you use a bootstrap template, then enter like icon-home for the home icon, or icon-star for an star icon ect.

But if you want to use a own icon/image. Then you need to create a css property with ]

then enter at option: own-icon

"fa-" is default fontawesome reference, so hardcoded in the core. Then he loads the name: newspaper-o

have you a link for me.

have you a link for me.

Yes of course,

Every forum category have the default setting for topic icons :



And I have changed some icons in media/kunena/topic_icons/default/topicicons.xml


The new icon shows when I create new threads or moderate current ones, but as you can see, the old threads still have the default "file" icon :
