I want to change the icon that is called through the variable {ONLINEREADYTOCHATICON}. I can see it's probably calling the file images/chaticon.gif, but I can't find the place in the admin console to change the file name that is called.
What I'm wondering is, when it says "{IMAGESURL}" where is it looking to find the value for that variable? I want to be able to customize the things in the curly brackets.
Regarding upgrading, the only thing that has me hesitating to upgrade is having to redo all the CSS and other customizations. Is there a way to simplify that process?
{IMAGESURL} stands for http://yoursite/templates/images_default/ in a normal, recent intstallation. If you only use one set of images, not multiple styles, then you can write out the path manually if you want. You don't have to use {IMAGESURL}.
CSS is automatically retained, though the new CSS added can make it look different. Templates from before 5.0.0 can't be retained. Template upgrade service is available at $30/hr though, which consists of doing the upgrade and then reimplementing your customizations by consulting the old templates.

Hi,
I want to change the icon that is called through the variable {ONLINEREADYTOCHATICON}. I can see it's probably calling the file images/chaticon.gif, but I can't find the place in the admin console to change the file name that is called.
Your help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Replace it with
<IF {ONLINEREADYTOCHAT}><a href="im.php?with={ONLINEID}" target="win" onClick="window.open(\'\',\'win\',\'{IMDIMENSIONS}\');"><img src="{IMAGESURL}/chaticon.png" border="0" alt="IM" /></a></IF>The 2.0 series is many years old and long out of support, so your mileage there may vary, but I assume it'll work there.
