Category Block (regular list)

Category Block

Version: SMF Arcade 2.7.0.2+


For EhPortal users, you can have this show in your arcade (only) by selecting Advanced Options and enter the following into Custom Display Options:
~action|arcade


Note:
The categories can also be displayed with small icons. Just name the icon the same as your category name except change any spaces to an underscore (case sensitive) and make sure it's in gif format.
Place the icons in: / Themes / default / images / arc_icons
The icons are set at 20 x 20 but this can be edited within the block.

// change $NumberOfColumns for the number of columns across
// change $block to "right" to align items on the right side
