Help with Custom Forum Status Icons 3.5

[Th3_Narcissist]

Anyone manage to get the above product to work on vB 3.8.2? The instructions are bullshit but i've edited the templates, just can't get my images to appear for my different sections. It doesn't even tell you where to find the control panel because there isn't one!

Modify forumhome_forumbit_level1_post

Search:

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />

Replace with this:

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[forumid].png" alt="" border="0" />

(I used png as image, default is gif so need to change above to pic format) 


Modify forumhome_forumbit_level2_post :

Search:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].png" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />

Replace with this:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[forumid].png" alt="" border="0" />

(I used png as image, default is gif so need to change above to pic format) 

Now UPLOAD your images in your /statusicon/ folder.
You have to name your image as forumid number example: 100.png

Have you checked: -GamersV2/statusicon/forum_new.gif ?

If you go to styles in AdminCP go to search templates and search for: forum_new or forum_old

Hi yer the only way i could get this to work good for me was the same info as Gismo as posted and i got to work for v3.8.3

the best and simple way to set ur own status icons.
open ur forumhome_forumbit_columncell
and find this

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif alt="" border="0" />

and replace this with

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/$forumid.png" alt="" border="0" />

now put ur png images in template's statuscion images.

Edit: u must rename ur images like that
if ur Applications forum id is 12 then ur img name must be 12.png which will atomaticaly in right place..
