This version is simpler than the classic one. I’ll put more efforts on this plugin than on the classic one. This is the next generation Category Icons.
It works with more themes than before, example : Prototype or Canvas.
It has an incredibly simple panel settings :
To start using it, just upload your icons (images) via the Media page and assign a category to the image :
Here is the result in the media panel :
If you want to unassign an icon, just select None in the list :
And if you want to view only the category icons, then click on Category icons in the select box :
You can also view which icon is assigned to a category in the Categories panel :

Please use this page to report bugs. It’ll be easier for me (and for others) to have all the bugs & issues centralized.
For the issue you’re having, I tried it on WordPress 3.4.1 with the last version of Category Icons Lite : it’s working. I think your issue is related to the CadabraPress theme. You need to disable the display of the icons in posts in Category Icons Lite settings, then modify the file index.php of the cadabrapress folder. Search for the following code :
the_title(); ?></a></h2>and just before that, paste this :
if (function_exists('get_cat_icon_lite')) echo get_cat_icon_lite();If you appreciated my help and/or my plugin, don’t hesitate to buy me a coffee.
