Description

See this forum discussion: https://tiki.org/forumthread60794?topics_offset=1Question

PluginManager returns this info:
icon - url - Enter a Tiki icon file name (with or without extension) or path to display a custom icon

This does not work.
You can only change the icon by editing /lib/smarty_tiki/block.remarksbox.php
switch ($type) {
case 'warning':
$class = 'alert-warning';
$icon = 'warning'; <<<You can change the icon by changing this, but see Note 1
break;
...

Note 1. This is not the icon name. It is the icon name as defined in /themes/base_files/iconsets/default.php
Ex. 'admin' => array(
'id' => 'cog',
'admin' is what you must call in the above block.remarksbox.php code, if you want to see the cog icon.
If the icon you want to use has not been defined in this file, you must manually modify the file to include your wanted definition.

I'm setting the Easy to solve? at 5 even though I do offer...
A quick 5 minute temporary fix would be to update the function info() in /lib/wiki-plugins/wiki/pluginin_remarksbox.php

  • Currently it is not an option, so actually I guess it could be removed.
    • But some sort of note could be made with a bit of the above info.

You must be a server admin to be able to change the icon at this point.

The longer term solution is to find out what actually caused the problem.
