What a fantastic job on the Frag Zone style.

Now to lay out the nodes, I'd like it to look like this.

1. Unique forum node icons.
2. Subforums listed underneath, not in the drag down menu.
3. Description underneath would be great.

This is for the game DDO. There are 4 other games/guild chapters I am going to build for.

Next up is: Roster, Raid Calendar (I'd love for it to do signups but options are thin -- I'm still hoping you guys can add a calendar option to the Roster -- then guilds would be able to use it as the alternative to ShivTR and Enjin!!), Applications (I need separate applications for each game/chapter), Front page/portal software.

What do you recommend (that would work with this style) and more importantly should I do it in a certain order?

Thanks for everything - you guys are THE BEST. :)
 
Where do I place this code?

Do i ftp upload the images to my server?

/* custom status icons */
.node.node_7 .forumNodeInfo .nodeIcon, .node.node_7 .categoryForumNodeInfo .nodeIcon {
background-image: url("@imagePath/xenforo/widgets/forum-read-7.png");
background-position: 0px 0px;
}
.node.node_7 .forumNodeInfo.unread .nodeIcon, .node.node_7 .categoryForumNodeInfo.unread .nodeIcon {
background-image: url("@imagePath/xenforo/widgets/forum-unread-7.png");
background-position: 0px 0px;
}
 
Sorry, any and all CSS code we give you will go inside the EXTRA.CSS template unless we tell you other wise.

Access that: Appearance -> Templates -> extra.css
 
Images are uploaded in the xenforo/widgets folder but images doesnt show... Here's the code I used in the EXTRA.css section

/* custom status icons */
.node.node_4 .forumNodeInfo .nodeIcon, .node.node_4 .categoryForumNodeInfo .nodeIcon {
background-image: url("@imagePath/xenforo/widgets/tyrstavern-read-4.png");
background-position: 0px 0px;
}
.node.node_4 .forumNodeInfo.unread .nodeIcon, .node.node_4 .categoryForumNodeInfo.unread .nodeIcon {
background-image: url("@imagePath/xenforo/widgets/tyrstavern-unread-4.png");
background-position: 0px 0px;
}
 
Im totally confused. I purchased [XFA] Nodes Icon Tweak which is highly reviewed since we have a lot of custom icons.

Sadly Im still running into troubles.

This is how the icon to the Tyrs Tavern is supposed to look.

This is what I get (no matter what I change the size of the icon too, I get the below result):

Go here:

Style Properties -> Node Icons

uncheck the "Enable Font Awesome Icons"

Also you could get your icon to fit in the space automatically by adding this to your extra.css:

Code:
.nodeIcon { background-size: cover !important;}
 
As a possible alternative, how could I get a banner atop the subforums page?

Such as like what Paradox does here?

Not sure which part you're referring too, but he has notices which you can configure to display on certain pages. Or he also has some sub-nodes which are pages which show above the thread list.


Final icon might be a bit smaller but I want as much detail in the image as possible
I'd need to see it live to see what's going on with it.
