Hi KenTeamBG, I'm actually looking for the selection categories mod and find your post, did you plan to do such mod for 1.5.1RC1? as I've check post provided by Nemesis and find out that mod provided there doesn't support thisfeature
also if there a mod which allow to select categories can anyone give me a tip where it could be found?

[Webby]

The mod already excists for 1.5.1Rc1B44 (I installed it a few days ago on yabb.nl), but I have a question about implementing this in combination with the different category icons mod :

I have to do this :

Code Select Expand

<search for>
     // if this is a new category
     if ($row_board['ID_CAT'] != $curcat)
     {
        $curcat=$row_board['ID_CAT'];
        echo "<tr> <td colspan=\"5\" class=\"catbg\" height=\"18\">\n";
        echo "<a name=\"$row_board[ID_CAT]\"><b>$row_board[catName]</b></a></td>\n</tr>\n";
     }
</search for>

<replace>
     // if this is a new category
     if ($row_board['ID_CAT'] != $curcat)
     {
        $curcat=$row_board['ID_CAT'];
        echo "<tr> <td colspan=\"5\" class=\"catbg\" height=\"18\">\n";
        if (($row_board['isCollapsable']) && ($username != 'Guest'))
        {
           if (!isset($collapseInfo[$row_board['ID_CAT']]))
           {
              echo '<img src="'.$imagesdir.'/cat_collapse.gif" alt=""><a name="'.$row_board['ID_CAT'].'"> </a><a href="'.$scripturl.'?action=collapsecat;cat='.$row_board['ID_CAT'].'">';
           }
           else
           {
              echo '<img src="'.$imagesdir.'/cat_expand.gif" alt=""><a name="'.$row_board['ID_CAT'].'"> </a><a href="'.$scripturl.'?action=expandcat;cat='.$row_board['ID_CAT'].'">';
           }
           echo '<b>'.$row_board['catName'].'</b></a>';            
        }
        else
        {
           echo '<a name="'.$row_board['ID_CAT'].'"><b>'.$row_board['catName'].'</b></a>';
        }
        echo "</td>\n</tr>\n";
     }
</replace>


Where there is in BoardIndex.php :

Code Select Expand

     // if this is a new category
     if ($row_board['ID_CAT'] != $curcat)
     {
        $curcat=$row_board['ID_CAT'];

// Begin Diff Cat Icon Mod
 if ($row_board[iconon] == "") $row_board[iconon] = "on.gif";
   $on = "<img src=\"$imagesdir/$row_board[iconon]\" alt=\"$txt[333]\" border=\"0\">";
 if ($row_board[iconoff] == "") $row_board[iconoff] = "off.gif";
   $off = "<img src=\"$imagesdir/$row_board[iconoff]\" alt=\"$txt[334]\" border=\"0\">";

if($modSettings['iconsEnable'])
{
 echo '<tr>';

 if($row_board[iconon] != "on.gif" && $row_board[iconoff] != "off.gif")
 {
   echo "<td colspan=\"2\" class=\"catbg\" bgcolor=\"$color[catbg]\" height=\"18\"><a name=\"$row_board[ID_CAT]\"><font size=\"2\"><b>$row_board[name]</b> </font></td>\n";
   echo "<td nowrap colspan=\"2\" class=\"catbg\" bgcolor=\"$color[catbg]\" height=\"18\"><font size=\"1\">$on  $txt[333]</font></td>\n";
   echo "<td nowrap class=\"catbg\" bgcolor=\"$color[catbg]\" height=\"18\"><font size=\"1\">$off  $txt[334]</font></td>\n";
 }
 else
 {
   echo "<td colspan=\"6\" class=\"catbg\" bgcolor=\"$color[catbg]\" height=\"18\"><a name=\"$row_board[ID_CAT]\"><font size=\"2\"><b>$row_board[name]</b></font></td>\n";
 }

 echo "</tr>\n";

}
else
{
 echo "<td colspan=\"6\" class=\"catbg\" bgcolor=\"$color[catbg]\" height=\"18\"><a name=\"$row_board[ID_CAT]\"><font size=\"2\"><b>$row_board[catName]</b></font></td>\n";
}
// End Diff Cat Icon Mod



Is there anybody who can help me out here ?

I already asked this in the German section, but there has been no reply yet  

[Gobalopper]

Isn't there another mod written by Sniper that is still being updated? You might want to try that.

[Webby]

With those 2 mods combined in one ?!

Would be great.

....link....?

[sensovision]

Hi Webby, do you mean that this link you gave me containg Mod which will make possible to select only certain categories to display?

The mod already excists for 1.5.1Rc1B44 (I installed it a few days ago on yabb.nl), ....

[Webby]

yes and no, it is the link to the mod which can collapse certain categories, so that you can't really see them.  They aren't hidden, but they are just collapsed.

Check the post, and the result at yabb.nl (register first to see what it does)

[sensovision]

Hi Webby thankx for suggestion, I register and check this mod on yabb.nl and it's not what I'm looking for actually as main feature which I need is to have a link to some category like this http://www.teambg.net/forum/?c=12 provided by KenTeamBG in one of the previous post which allow to show only one category to my guests... do you have an idea how to do this?
