Add topic subject icon on forum list

[Niko]

Coucou,

another quick resource to display the topic icon from last topic within a forum. Topic icons must be used and must be selected to be displayed!
Sadly the resource is available for all version - but PhpBB2.

Javascript & jQuery

You need to go towards Administration Control Panel (ACP)  Modules  HTML & Javascript  Javascript codes management and create a new code - upon verifying that Javascript codes management is enabled.

var selector = versions[FORUM_VERSION];

    var element = $(this);

      $.ajax({

          type:'GET',
          success: function(data){
                var icon = $(data).find(selector).html();
                $(element).html(icon);

hi @Niko
Very good work

But the code is not working on my test forum

[Niko]

@كونان2000 I need more information, like the forum link, the forum version, etc...
A live demo would help for sure

edit. added a new version, give a try!

I may be dumb, but what does this script does? I can't conclude by description and image given in this tutorial.

Hello,

Idk if something is wrong with the script, but if an icon is not setted its added a little space: https://prnt.sc/oNkuoI6SzrRp is it alright, or what?

In that case you get tan empty image instead. You can simply remove it with this CSS for example (on PhpBB3)

Code:

a.lastpost-link img[src="https://2img.net/i/empty.gif"] {
    display: none;
}

Thanks for the code... but there is already icons added from administration panel, idk why you would this code to be added for all pages - showing in the mainpage itself... (maybe someone who is lazy enough, will need this script anyway xD)

[Niko]

@Mihai if you prefer you can add it on home and sub-forums only, it should work anyway

[Mihai]

Yes i know Niko, but instead of viewing the icons from the home, you can click on each subforum and view it... https://prnt.sc/AVIOSZ5vEaN4... and you did not mention in your tutorial if there is no icon setted, there will be a topic title with a blank space...

[Niko]

@Mihai you are not obliged to use this script.
If you don't want the icon on the home page, you can not use this script; if you want the icon even there, then this quick resource does it for you. I don't see the problem.
