stewart1champ submitted a new resource:

Creating Thread Prefixes Containing Images (version 1.0) - Add a little style to your prefixes.

I searched Xenforo for days, saw a couple different ways to do it, and never could get it figured out. Finally, had a breakthrough, not sure if I saw it at bbSmiley.com, a post by Brogan or where, but it all came together. Here is how I add thread prefixes that contain an image.

Starting with your normal options:

Add your CSS and images, end with this:

You could have at least credited me as it seems you use the code snipped I provided exactly.

I have been using this code for quite a while, and certainly did not grab any of it from you.

 

[xenTheory]

Likewise. It's just exactly the same code but whatever you say.

If you are accusing me of taking something, just say it. Don't beat around the bush.

I have used this code before you were a member here, when working on my old CFBHQ.com site. I do appreciate the accusation though.

Why bother accusing you? Not worth my time. There are only so many ways of doing CSS or any code, I'll edit my other post.

You did accuse. You said:

If I had used what you posted, you would have been noted.

I didn't use anything you have ever posted, so I have no reason to credit you.

This is great "I thought" but ran into a problem in what I wanted to have.

When creating a thread, the prefix drop down is exactly what I want:


However, I just want the icon to be displayed with the threads and not the text as well. What I am getting now is:


It would be great if there was some way to remove the text and just leave the icon

In stewarts defense this was posted on xFShowcase quite some time ago. I'm pretty certain shortly after it the site was opened.

Try adding "font-size: 0" to the prefix...

Thanks Stew but that will not work in IE

Thanks Stew but that will not work in IE

Oh, wasn't aware... I never pay attention to IE at all. Sorry.

 

[Case]

Would a negative text-indent work?

eg.

text-indent:-200px;

IE10 doesn't like text-indent

Another rage quit?

It's a shame you've deleted the tutorial type addons as they were pretty useful.
