Category images / icons

[Sanhux]

ODP project have some nice images to be associated in topics/ cathegories. Of course, a default set are nice, but this would be specified by a admin upload.

How are category images added? Like adding a file folder image?

I plan on making a mod to allow images for each Cat, and a default one for those that aren't set.

It's on my very soon to do list.

Hi,

I use the following code:

Content visible to registered users only.

and simply name each image as the category number.. ie. if the Arts category ID is 1 i name the arts category icon as '1.gif' then place it in the /images/ folder.

Hope that helps,

Regards,

That is probably the easiest way to do it.

Content visible to registered users only. Just to make sure I would just put it in the main template here Content visible to registered users only.

Easy way using same image for all folders, sub-folders.

If folder image is located in template\templatename\images\

Use this one in main.tpl:


Content visible to registered users only.

Remember added:

I've created images for my categories and the directory looks really good. I've used the code in this forum

Content visible to registered users only.

Is there any code i can place in here to just have the categories on the index look for an image. With the code above each page is looking for an image.

Code only on homepage (or other page) (http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/forum/showthread.php?t=11823)


and wrap <img src="/images/{$cat.ID}.gif" border="0" alt="{$cat.TITLE}">

in the if switch ;)
