Custom category icons (my own png images) on NTS Kay Template

I purchased, downloaded and installed NTS Kay template and I have to customize the category icons but the procedure indicated in the supporting documentation ( docs.kunena.org/en/manual/backend/categories/category-icons ) doesn't work.

What can I do?
Thanks in advance

Hi valepo,

The NTS Kay template has supported the FontAwesome icon 5.x and FontAwesome 4.x. So you can enter the fontawesome icon format to the Category Icon field to custom category icon.

- Fontawesome 5.x: fontawesome.com/icons?d=gallery
- Fontawesome 4.x: fontawesome.com/v4.7.0/cheatsheet/

Example: Enter "fa fa-star" to the Category Icon to add star icon for category.

Best regards,

Hi,
so it is not possible to insert your own image, correct?

....I tried to insert this fontawesome.com/icons/tshirt?style=solid from fontawesome.com/icons?d=gallery

but don't see it (see attachment), what could be the problem?

Hi,
I just checked it out and there is a slight style conflict. Please follow some below step to solve your problem and we will update to the template next version.

1. Create a file with named: nts_kay_custom.css.
2. Copy bellow CSS rules to that file.
Code:
#kunena.layout .fas, #kunena.layout .far, #kunena.layout .fab { font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Free"; } #kunena.layout .fas { font-weight: 900; } #kunena.layout .far { font-weight: 400; } #kunena.layout .fab { font-weight: 400; } #kunena.layout td.kcol-cat-icon .fas::before { font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Free"; font-weight: 900; } #kunena.layout td.kcol-cat-icon .fas::before, #kunena.layout td.kcol-cat-icon .far::before, #kunena.layout td.kcol-cat-icon .fab::before { font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Free"; } #kunena.layout td.kcol-cat-icon .fas::before { font-weight: 900; } #kunena.layout td.kcol-cat-icon .far::before { font-weight: 400; } #kunena.layout td.kcol-cat-icon .fab::before { font-weight: 400; }

3. Update the nts_kay_custom.css file to the css folder of current joomla template.
4. Reload your site to check.

Please let us know if it does not work on your site.

Hi,

Flow some bellow steps to use the image icon for category.

- Step 1: Download 3 bellow images and copy (upload) to the images folder of active joomla template





- Step 2: Update bellow CSS rules to the nts_kay_custom.css file.
Code:
/* Custom icon */ #kunena.layout i.cs-icon-abbigliamento, #kunena.layout i.cs-icon-figurine, #kunena.layout i.cs-icon-scarpe { background: url(../images/icon-abbigliamento.png) no-repeat center center; background-size: cover; display: block; height: 32px; margin: 5px 0 0 5px !important; width: 32px; } #kunena.layout i.cs-icon-figurine { background: url(../images/icon-figurine.png) no-repeat center center; background-size: cover; } #kunena.layout i.cs-icon-scarpe { background: url(../images/icon-scarpe.png) no-repeat center center; background-size: cover; }

- Step 3: Open the category you want to add icon and enter icon class name to the Category Icon field.

Add: class cs-icon-abbigliamento for abbigliamento image.
Add: class cs-icon-figurine for figurine image.
Add: class cs-icon-scarpe for scarpe image.
