Also, on our site (www.AndyMurray.com - using old version I guess since smileys are inserted at bottom of post), white-gloved smiley on COOL menu actually inserts :peace: from HAPPY menu.
I encountered this same problem when I initially installed Vanillacons on my forum (new category of smiles do not show, and they don't actually work in discussions). Not sure if my fix is the most elegant way, but it's a fix nonetheless...here goes:
Problem: In the two smiley files ("smilies.js" and "smilies.php", or something like that), the paths of the smiley files are specified. Those paths start with "/vanilla/extensions/..." Well, I didn't put my forum in "/vanilla/..", I put it in "/forum/..."
Solution: Sooo...changing those paths to reflect the proper path worked! All smilies a GO!
Could anyone shed some light as to which portion of the PHP I need to touch to dwindle down this extension so that it just shows one category of smilies, and eliminates the drop down box (category selector) completely? I just don't have a need for that many smilies, or categories...so if I could get this outta the way it'd be prefect!
Got it! Simple edit to "SMILIES_CATEGORIES=1" in smilies.php solved it.
has anyone figured out why the drop down menus don’t work.... I installed added about 400 smiles, gave permission 777 to the two files clicked rebuild and only the standard show up....
I did the Ctrl f5, turned extension on and off, I tried to reinstall....
I still cant get this extension to work right with smilies..... The problem is with the drop down menu. What ever category I set for the default category gets shown and all of the :code: work 100%. But no matter what when you open up the smilies you cant change from the default category....
I have about 450 smilies broken down into 29 categories with about with a max of 24 per category. I have also set the two files to read & write.... This is totally kicking my butt!!!
I thought it might be a problem with my other extensions causing a problem so I disables all the extension on the "test board" www.mrpat.net/forum feel free to sign on as a guest user:guest pass:guest and take a look....
Hi! Love this add on, especially the option to not show smiles at all when posting and that user can choose, which set to show.
But there seems to be compability issue when using Quotations. When quoting msg, smileys end up showing quite garbled <blockquote> Text <img title=":smile:" alt=":smile:" src="/extensions/Vanillacons/smilies/default/smile.gif"></img></blockquote>
The problem and issue is quite obvious, did spend some time with the code trying to fix this but with no success. So what to change/remove in order the quote show only the key for selected smileys?
And overall, alts and titles really not shoud even print the key?

also, I want the standard icons to display as default (without the + being clicked.)
Thanks in advance.

Man that's obscene, how many folders/categories?

We are using a mixture of JPEG, PNG and GIF
Do not use a ' in the name of a smiley It was messing up the PHP/JS
Never, ever use punctuation (except for dots and underscores) in any filename!
