Additional tips for creating category icons
The tutorial seems very simple from the standpoint of the operator and in some cases not. Need to consider in this tutorial a factor that makes it difficult to apply in some cases.
I lost a long time and I felt angry and frustrated after trying many times without making it work (major headache) I got it to work creating a new folder on FTP where I have installed wordpress, named icons.
The new URL of the image are as follows:
http://yourdomain.com/icons/namefileicon.png
use this URL for the image of the icon instead of the URL generated by the charging system wordpress control panel
Apply this URL to the image of the icon to the script that gives the tutorial and the image appeared, but with the name of the category of imposed
To prevent the name of the category is imposed on the image icon
located in the CSS style sheet as follows:
# Directory. Catcol li.maincat ul {border-bottom: 1px solid # DDD; font-weight: bold; padding: 0 0 0 30px; text-transform: uppercase}
In the case that this value has no padding: 0 0 0 30px correct to have the appearance shown here.
This makes the category name to move to the right and avoids imposing on the image icon.
After I made it work.
Recommendation: follow the tutorial as recommended and if this fails, apply what you suggest here. I really solved the problem and headache goodbye. Serve you and hope you take away the frustration and be happy.
If my suggestion helped you solve your frustration please tell me here to encourage others to be happy. And another thing forgive the syntax of English. Is a translation of google because I do not speak any English. I am not responsible. Thanks
