[Tutorial] How to completely remove post icons

[faviouz]

You're right, how could I forget that! Thanks for reminding me.

I will consider your other idea.

If you want to remove both post icons and thread status icons, you only have to make a small change. I wrote a tutorial on how to completely remove post icons (this tutorial), and another one on how to completely remove thread status icons. After following both of the tutorials, do the following:

1. Go to Admin CP > Templates & Style > Templates > Your Template Set > Forum Display Templates > forumdisplay_threadlist.
2. Find the following piece of code from the forumdisplay_threadlist template:

<td class="tcat" colspan="2" width="66%">

3. Replace the piece of code you found in step 2 with:

<td class="tcat" colspan="1" width="66%">

In the end no thread status icons or post icons will show up on your forums. An example can be found below:

Another thing :

1. Go to Admin CP > Templates & Style > Templates > Your Template Set > User control panel > usercp_subscriptions_thread.

Remove:
<td align="center" class="trow2" width="1%">{$icon}</td>

2.Go to Admin CP > Templates & Style > Templates > Your Template Set > User control panel > usercp_latest_subscribed_threads.

Remove:
<td align="center" class="{$bgcolor}" width="2%">{$icon}</td>

Replace :

<td class="{$bgcolor}">{$gotounread}{$thread['displayprefix']}<a href="{$thread['threadlink']}" class="{$new_class}">{$thread['subject']}</a><br /><span class="smalltext">{$thread['author']}</span></td>

With :

<td class="{$bgcolor}" colspan="2">{$gotounread}{$thread['displayprefix']}<a href="{$thread['threadlink']}" class="{$new_class}">{$thread['subject']}</a><br /><span class="smalltext">{$thread['author']}</span></td>


3.Go to Admin CP > Templates & Style > Templates > Your Template Set > User control panel > usercp_latest_threads_threads


Remove:
<td align="center" class="{$bgcolor}" width="2%">{$icon}</td>


Replace :

<td class="{$bgcolor}" >{$gotounread}{$thread['displayprefix']}<a href="{$thread['threadlink']}" class="{$new_class}">{$thread['subject']}</a><br /><span class="smalltext">{$thread['author']}</span></td>

with :

<td class="{$bgcolor}" colspan="2">{$gotounread}{$thread['displayprefix']}<a href="{$thread['threadlink']}" class="{$new_class}">{$thread['subject']}</a><br /><span class="smalltext">{$thread['author']}</span></td>

Okay, I think this is enough proof there needs to be a setting to disable post icons.

I'll add that to the tutorial later, thanks.
