OK, so Ive scoured the codex and the forum and for the life of me I cannot find an answer to this apparently basic question… How Do We Change the Default Icon Set?

 

We’ve uploaded Set #4 to the custom icons directory.

But the only option we see mentioned in the forum to put it to use seems to be on a “one by one” basis, editing groups and forums one by one to choose the icons we want to use from the set.

 

Is there an option to simply say “Use this set as the default for the entire forum?”

Your help is much appreciated.

you posted this in 5.0 forum…  there are no icon sets in 5.0…

icons are images in the sp theme you are using…  if you want to change those images/icons, just replace them in your sp theme with what you want…  we highly recommend you create your own sp theme before making any changes to prevent losing any changes… http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/themes/theme-basics/creating-a-theme/

Hi, thanks for pointing to the “create your theme” link, the tutorial there was great. So I’ve set up my new theme now and following on from the custom icons post: I’ve downloaded a custom icon set and it has included a “icons_default.php” page and I was wondering where in my theme I should place this?

V5 does not have icon sets – that was V4 and prior.
Icons are supplied in the theme.
We do have plans to have other icons that may become available and at least one user has created some that we may be able to offer but we don’t have a download spot yet until we revam,p the site.
