More Stats

[FrizzleFried]

I've always hated the [MORE STATS] text link in the info center... it looks tacky.  How would I go about making that a button of some sort?

Thanks!

SMF 2.0.2
Default theme

do you have an image already selected for this use? if so give a url to the location of the image and i can look into the replacement for you.

I do not have an image as of yet... I was thinking of using one of the button options built in to SMF... I can create menu buttons at will... and with icons in them too... but when I try to use the same code in the boardindex.php where i found the MORE STATS code... it failed miserably.  I am a PHP newb.  What string/command do I put in place of the TXT command currently in there?  If I can't use one of the buttons from SMF (with hover) ... I'd happily use a PNG file instead of just the text link.

try something like

Code: [Select]

<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=stats"><img src="' . $themeurl . 'themes/default/images/board.gif "/></a>' : '', '
and

Code: (find) [Select]

global $context, $settings, $options, $txt, $scripturl, $modSettings;

Code: (replace) [Select]

global $context, $settings, $options, $txt, $scripturl, $modSettings, $themeurl;in your boardindex.template.php

Well,  the [MORE STATS] link went away... unfortunately my icon didn't show up.  I uploaded my icon to the themes/images/ folder and changed the code to reflect the icon name...

Fixed... the code above has "themes" rather than "Themes" (with a CAP "T")... once that was fixed we're golden!   Thanks!

ah sorry, did the code on windows where caps does not matter vs a linux server where it does.
