So, am I suppose to post a URL into the new-redirect slot? Or can I just leave it as the default as is?
That is up to you.   If you want them to be diffeent images then yes.
new_redirect is the smaller one
If you look further down in the images you'll find redirect.png   That is the larger one.  You would need to replace them both if you replace them.    The small one will always show up - the larger one will be next to a Board title if its set as a redirect board.

Okay, thanks. I wasn't sure about it. For the time being I will just leave it as the default.

That's a pretty slick set up btw. Love the icon you use for the redirect too. Props.

Something weird is happening. Yesterday I had another member posting to help me test the On/Off Icons and it was working flawlessly with each separate post. But this morning as I checked out my forum, all the Lights are On, indicating there are new post. Only thing is that there aren't any new post. And on top of that, clicking on any post and then check back on the Forum Index to see of the lights go, which they do not do.


And clicking on "Mark All Messages as Read" doesn't solve the problem either.


So, what's happening and what is the fix?


I did a forum Maintenance, but that didn't solve anything.

Checking back inside the original Image URL links I noticed that they had "reset" to the last configuration. Why, I have no idea. Does this happen a lot?

No this normally does not occur.

Did you set a name for the custom image set in Customize Images?   (at the bottom of that page)

Also - the forums were moved to a new server.   Maybe that caused that to happen, especially if you had not set up a custom image set.

I didn't set any names for the Custom Image Set. Didn't know what it was for. Is this a problem?
