Hey there,
I'm really new in ElkArte and installed it on my webspace about 3 or 4 days ago.
I mostly used phpBB by now, but ElkArte seems modern and much easier to configurate - at least at the permission side.
I try to find where I can add new posting images, there's a menu entry in the admin control panel calls "Forum" -> "Smiley & post symbols" (I use german language files, there it calls "Forum" -> "Smileys & Beitragssymbole").
When I get into this menu I only see several menu entries for smiley (pre)view and edit, but no post symbols.
It also seems, that there are no "addons" for the post image packs available at addons.elkarte.net .
Someone have an idea, where I can find / add them?
I use phpMyAdmin on my webspace or better my databases, so I could add them manually if neccessary, if I would know where to add.
I use only the default (but recoloured) theme on the board.
Will it be enough, if I upload the additional images to /themes/default/images/post/ ? Will ElkArte recognize them for itself?
I could edit the currently images directly (overwrite them by my images) but maybe there's a "safer" way to go? :)
Can the images be "any" format (like 40x16px) or have they to be always 18x16px without modding? I would like to add a readable text instead of the symbols like "finished", "in work", "wait" and so on.
Thanks!
