Thread Icon

How to set a default thread icon (fontawesome icon) rather than avatar for every thread ?

Thank you

I'm so sorry this slipped by me. Was out on vacation when you posted this and missed it when I got back. Truly sorry, response times are normally not this long at all.

This was an option in our previous styles but it was moved when XenForo introduced a bunch of node types (articles + suggestions + q&a). To get this edit done again, open the template "thread_list_macors"

Find:

    <xf:extension name="icon_cell">
        <div class="structItem-cell structItem-cell--icon">
            <div class="structItem-iconContainer">
                <xf:avatar user="$thread.User" size="s" defaultname="{$thread.username}" />
                <xf:if is="$thread.getUserPostCount()">
                    <xf:avatar user="$xf.visitor" size="s"
                        href=""
                        class="avatar--separated structItem-secondaryIcon"
                        tabindex="0"
                        data-xf-init="tooltip"
                        data-trigger="auto"
                        title="{{ phrase('you_have_posted_x_messages_in_this_thread', {'count': $thread.getUserPostCount() }) }}" />
                </xf:if>
            </div>
        </div>
    </xf:extension>

Replace with:

    <xf:extension name="icon_cell">
        <div class="structItem-cell structItem-cell--iconIcon">
            <xf:if is="$thread.getUserPostCount()">
                <xf:fa icon="fa-asterisk" data-xf-init="tooltip" title="{{ phrase('you_have_posted_x_messages_in_this_thread', {'count': $thread.getUserPostCount() }) }}" />
            </xf:if>
            <xf:if is="$thread.sticky">
                <xf:fa icon="fa-thumbtack" data-xf-init="tooltip" title="{{ phrase('sticky') }}" />
            <xf:elseif is="$thread.discussion_state == 'deleted'" />
                <xf:fa icon="fa-trash" data-xf-init="tooltip" title="{{ phrase('deleted') }}" />
            <xf:elseif is="$thread.discussion_type == 'redirect'" />
                <xf:fa icon="fa-external-link-alt" data-xf-init="tooltip" title="{{ phrase('redirect') }}" />
            <xf:elseif is="$thread.discussion_type == 'poll'" />
                <xf:fa icon="fa-chart-bar" data-xf-init="tooltip" title="{{ phrase('poll') }}" />
            <xf:else />
                <xf:if is="$thread.isUnread()">
                    <xf:fa icon="fa-comments" data-xf-init="tooltip" title="{{ phrase('new_posts_unread') }}" />
                <xf:else />
                    <xf:fa icon="fa-comments" />
                </xf:if>
            </xf:if>
        </div>
    </xf:extension>

Then add this to extra.less:

.structItem-cell
{
    &.structItem-cell--iconIcon
    {
        width: 54px;
        text-align: center;
        position: relative;
        vertical-align: middle;
        padding-right: 0;
        span
        {
            font-size: @xf-fontSizeSmall;
            display: block;
            cursor: default;
        }
        .fa-asterisk
        {
            position: absolute;
            top: 10px;
            left: 10px;
            font-size: 8px;
        }
        i
        {
            font-size: 20px;
            color: @xf-textColorMuted;
        }
        .is-unread & i
        {
            color: @xf-textColor;
        }
    }
}

Let me know if that works.

@Russ thank you it worked perfectly.
