[Plugin: Category Icons] Icons not appearing

  • I have the latest version of WordPress installed. I’m using the City Guide template from WooThemes. I’ve installed and activated the icon and associated some icons to categories. In the Category Icons admin area I see the quantity of posts each icon belongs to.

    I’ve added <?php if (function_exists('get_cat_icon')) get_cat_icon(); ?> within the loop of archive.php which is displaying the categories pages in the template.

    Does it matter that i’m using it on a category page? I’ve used this plugin before and it worked just fine with the same function just in another template file.

    Looking at the source I don’t see any html being rendered for the icon just the div it’s wrapped in.

    Any suggestions on what I can try?

    Thanks

    Thanks i’ll go over their functions and your suggestions and let you know what works. If I don’t have any luck getting it to work i’ll post in their support forum and link to this thread to see what their devs can come up with.

    I slept a little and here is a solution : replace the code at line #57 :

    <?php } else { $img_missing = true; } ?>

    by this one :

    <?php
 } else { // no thumbnail
    $img_missing = true;
    if (function_exists('get_cat_icon')) { // if category icons is active
 ?>
 <div class="image-holder">
	<div class="fix"></div>
	<p class="fr"><span class="post-category"><?php the_category(' ') ?></span></p>
	<?php get_cat_icon(); ?>
</div>
 <?php
    }
 }
 ?>

    If there’s no thumbnail to display, and if the plugin category icons is active, display the icon.

    I think this is because of this code in category-icons.php :

    if (is_category() && in_the_loop()) {
		$cat = (int) get_query_var('cat');
		$category=get_category($cat);
		if (!isset($p['cat']) || !is_array($p['cat'])) {
    		$p['cat']=array();
		}

    	$p['cat'][] = $category->cat_ID;
	}
	else {

    Delete it, and also the corresponding closing curly braket : }, just before :

    $nb_icons = 0;

    I’ve updated the plugin to 2.2.3. It should be resolved.
