Finally upgraded to YAF 1.9.6 RC1 to try this new cool feature.
And..
..have not found how to use it.
I created one topic status "Important" in Administration » Topic Status, but what to do further??
To Get Started with the Topic Status Feature you should import the existing ones first to see how it works (Under Administration -> Topic Status -> Click Import > In the Install Folder you find a file called TopicStatusList.xml)
When you define a TS you define to Values the Name and the Default Description,
LocalizationTo localize the Description you need to add a new language string to the language files
<page name="TOPIC_STATUS">
<Resource tag="INFORMATIC">Informative</Resource>
<Resource tag="SOLVED">Solved</Resource>
<Resource tag="QUESTION">Question</Resource>
<Resource tag="ISSUE">Issue</Resource>
<Resource tag="FIXED">Fixed</Resource>
<Resource tag="IMPORTANT">Important</Resource>
</page>
if that tag is not find it will use the default Description
Topic Status Icon ImageWhen no Icon is found in the Current Theme the Topic Status will be displayed as Text. But when you define Icon in the themename.xml
<page name="TOPIC_STATUS">
<Resource tag="INFORMATIC">~/status_informatic.png</Resource>
<Resource tag="SOLVED">~/status_solved.png</Resource>
<Resource tag="QUESTION">~/status_question.png</Resource>
<Resource tag="ISSUE">~/status_issue.png</Resource>
<Resource tag="FIXED">~/status_fixed.png</Resource>
<Resource tag="IMPORTANT">~/status_important.png</Resource>
</page>
and you need to create the image that will be used.
(Dont forget to Restart YAF when you modify the theme xml file or language xml file).
To Finally use the TS when you create a new Topic or edit an existing topic you will see an dropdown that shows the list of all Topic Status to select (If you dont see it you need to enable "Allow Topic Status Option" in the Host Settings)
