I want to just change the Post Icon for just one thread/topic, it's a sticky, and I was wondering how to do so without letting everyone have the sticky icon, help?
Maybe only admins and mods can access the icon, is that an option that is available?
Run the following query in phpMyAdmin;
UPDATE mybb_threads SET icon = 'X' WHERE tid = 'Y';
Where;
X = Icon ID
Y = Thread ID
To know the icon id, go to: AdminCP > Configurations > Post Icons > Hover over the "Edit" link (do not click just hover over the link) and see the "iid" in status bar.
See, I don't think you understand, if I add the sticky icon onto the post icons, than everyone has access to them, I just want the admins and mods to be able to use them, or just a one time thing...
Then you'll need a plugin to do this. There is no plugin as far as I searched.
You may use Thread Prefixes where you're allowed to specify specific Prefix to certain Usergroups.
