Template print and email icons override not faking affect in Joomla 1.6

Hmm , am i missing something ,

untill 1.6  if you place print,email icons in current_template /images folder they would override default icons,

but in 1.6 is not working.

I checked the icon.php file in components\com_content\helpers

 

and the comment is still there as in 1.5

// checks template image directory for image, if non found default are loaded

 

but the function seems useless.  Am i missing a setting ?

Confirmed, lol , was looking at it . Thank you!

Thanks for the question and for the answer, Nicholas. I spent a little time walking thru the JHTML Image path changes this morning to get more aware.

I had thought that if you created a folder for your component in the media folder and placed the image in the same subfolder (ex 'com_content/system/emailButton.png') that you could customize images by component, but it appears such is not the case. That might be a neat improvement.

All these details! Added a link to this discussion in the 1.6 subtle changes discussion.

Thanks guys!

the only thing you're missing here is that the template specific email, print & pdf buttons need to be placed in the [your_template]/images/system/ folder

 

Hope this helps,
