[Solved] Adding topic icons when editing a post seems to have been disabled

Just tried to tag a post as solved and noticed that I can no longer add the green check mark, or any other, for that matter. That seems to have been disabled a while ago. Why?

They appear for me:

Do you still see the Subject field for editing?
Try View Source and search for Post Icon - you should find this:
Code: Select all
<dl>
<dt><label for="icon">Post icon:</label></dt>
<dd>
<label for="icon"><input type="radio" name="icon" id="icon" value="0" checked="checked" tabindex="1" /> None</label>
<label for="icon-12"><input type="radio" name="icon" id="icon-12" value="12" tabindex="1" /><img src="./images/icons/misc/resolu.gif" width="20" height="20" alt="" title="" /></label>
<label for="icon-1"><input type="radio" name="icon" id="icon-1" value="1" tabindex="1" /><img src="./images/icons/misc/fire.gif" width="16" height="16" alt="" title="" /></label>
<label for="icon-6"><input type="radio" name="icon" id="icon-6" value="6" tabindex="1" /><img src="./images/icons/misc/radioactive.gif" width="16" height="16" alt="" title="" /></label>
</dd>
</dl>
If that is there then for some reason your browser isn't rendering that section of the page.

Odd, it seems to work now. Will mess around with this for a little and report back.

Here's the offending behavior. Oddly, it doesn't happen for all posts.

Did you have a look at the page source to see if there is anything missing?

I did, and the icons are missing. The offending page is

Seems to be the case for both the User Experience and Announcement forums that the Post Icons have been disabled - or not enabled - for both those forums. I tried several topics in each forum with the same result.
I don't have karma to see that level of administration on the board; perhaps Hagar will know.

Indeed, that was part of the making when the forum was launched. I don't remember very well why it was done like this but several sections had the feature disabled.
If there is no point against that, I can activate the setting.

Well really there seems not much need for it in the forums I mentioned - they seem to me to be for information rather than problem solving.
The specific topic that floris v linked seems like it might better be placed elsewhere.

Indeed. I moved the topic to troubleshooting.
Let me know if you want the icon to be activated for the other sections.
