Ok I have been working on a new theme and i am attempting to figure out what i need to do, to get block titles to use images if they exist instead of text.

I recall seeing you post something on the PostNuke forum about AutoTheme being able to do this but since there are 4 different versions the oldest one being the one that i used I am a little confused as to what one will achieve this.

Thanks

Try AT-Lite .7 or the commercial 1.7.

Put some images in themes/yourtheme/images/ with the following naming scheme:

The title of the block, all lowercase, remove spaces and non-alphanumeric characters. They can be gif, jpg or png.

Examples:

Main Menu is mainmenu.gif
Who's Online is whosonline.jpg

Also, if you run a multilanguage site, then you can have lang directories under the themes/yourtheme/images/ directory and put theme there. Then whatever language the user is using, it will use those images.

themes/yourtheme/images/eng/mainmenu.gif
themes/yourtheme/images/ita/mainmenu.gif

I upgraded the theme with the AT lite and tried it does the collapseable blocks still hold baring if this feature works or not?

Thanks.

Sorry... In AT-Lite, the image must be in themes/yourtheme/images/lang/ so try themes/yourtheme/images/eng/ if you're using English.

This is fixed in new AT-Lite .8

I figured that out already no worries though.

Now to figure out why the center blocks aren't showing up in the News module.
