Dealing with 2 Issues

#1: Is there a way to create a “Sub-Category”?

EXAMPLE:

Boat Accessories (Main Category)

Trolling Motors (1st Sub-Category)

Minn Kota (Forum)

Motorguide (Forum)

Chargers & Portable Power (2nd Sub-Category)

Battery Chargers (Forum)

Portable Generators (Forum)

#2. Is there a way to “Import & Use” custom Icons for Categories using the Media Library?

Thanks for any and all assistance.

Hello boywonder52

You can create sub-forums inside of forums which should allow you to create a similar structure.

Custom icons need explicit css-rules. You can have a look at an example here:

I tried adding the below code in: “wp-content/plugins/asgoros-forum/skin/style.css” and it didn’t work for me. Is this the correct path? Does the icon have to be certain dimensions? Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Thanks for any help.

#af-wrapper #forum-2 .forum-status span:before {
content: “”;
background-image: url(“http://fishing-east-texas.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/lake-category-icon.png”);

Yes, the icon should have a size of 32×32 pixels.
