6.11 vb3 text admin controls and category pagination

Marris · July 30th, 2008, 09:17 AM

I just upgraded from 5.62 to 6.11 integrated into vBulletin 3.7.2 and want to switch the controls beneath each image back to text, rather than image icons.

In Admin > Show Photo Options, I selected "No" for "Use images for user menu options on showphoto?"

This leaves the following admin commands as images: Edit Photo, Closes Comments, Hide Image, Move/Delete, Make Sticky, Make Index Thumb.

1) Where is the option to make these text only? I didn't have any luck finding it in the Admin control panel.

Another question: My gallery only has one main category, with dozens of top level subcategories. The main gallery page is getting far too long (browser scrolling-wise) and slow loading with all the top level subcategories.

2) Is there an option to paginate or limit the number of subcategories shown on one page? I would like a limit of 20 subcategories per page with Next>> and <<Back links to navigate through all the subcategory pages.

1. The admin controls which only you see I beleive michael did not make switches for

2. There really is not a switch for that. You can only set the catdepth to 0 for no subcats or 1 for one level of subcats but the pagination on index page is how many top level cats you want to show.

Thanks for the reply. I'll take a look at the templates.

I remember searching for this feature and finding previous discussions saying it didn't exist a while back, but I was hoping maybe you had added this feature in the new version. I guess not.

Do you know if any users have created a mod/hack for this kind of function? If so, could you point me in the right direction?

Thank you.

Sorry I would have no idea what is posted in THE MOD CORNER since that is outside product support I really do not view those forums.
