Well now I stumped :surprised:

I had some other unrelated problems (I think) and decided
to do a fresh 2.3.0 install, I did install this on an upgraded
board, and it did work fine, but since I've done a fresh install
and tried to reinstall this hack, I've noticed some other slight
changes in the code. I did'nt think much about it and installed
the changes anyway.
It just doesn't seem to do anything new now. :surprised:
I'v when back over all the templates about 4 times and
tried different similar variables, but still the same.
I've even compared the templates, side by side with the
ones that were working and still no joy.
I'm wondering now if there's some other file that needs to
be hacked.

Well so far,
my best guess is that it has something to do with the new "get more" function.
My old updated board didn't have that, and I only had about 15
smilies, all in one box.

Man this is really wierd..
I didn't change anything, and it just decided to start working today. :confused:

may have been my cookies or something.

woohoo :banana:

I installed it on 2.3.0, and the get more smilies was acting very erratic. It would disappear after clicking something. I'm not sure what was going on, but something just ain't right. That was in editpost I was testing. Has this hack been confirmed to work right in 2.3.0 yet? Also, if so, are there two lines in editpost that need to be changed? Maybe I did it wrong? Is there a way to have the smilies not hide every time you click them, like it would normally be?

[edit]
After observing here, I guess that's just the way it works.
That's all that was freaking me out, actually. But I'd still like to know if the window can act like it used to.

hi s.molinari ,
could it be that using this hack the focus to the smilie popup window is lost ... ehm to put it another way would it be possible after inserting a smilie to reset the focus to the smilie popup windows???

thanks
tina

Hi yall,

Sorry, but I really haven't had time to keep this hack up-to-date with my ventures at vbulletin-germany.com, which means you guys and gals are on your own. I hope you will forgive me.

Anyone running 2.3.0 who is just now installing this for the first time, let me try and save you some time.

D/L the new .js from the first post in the thread and follow all the instructions in that post except for vbcode_popup_smiliesbits.

Test the functionality on your board (in both enhanced and normal mode). Normal is likely working, enhanced may not be. If that's the case, go to page 5 of this thread, and look for Mutt's post that includes an attachment. Download, and follow his instructions that involves making two pastes into the .js file.

Go back and test your functionality in enhanced, it should now be working. Thanks Mutt, you rule.

Now create a post, and click on "Get More" Smilies. Click on one to add it. Doesn't work, right?

The vbcode_popup_smiliesbits edit that you didn't do must have been for an old version. Go in there now, and simply turn this;

into this;

Note that you're only adding 'opener.' -- that's it. Go back to your board and test everything, but you should be done. I was running an otherwise stock 2.3.0 clean install, and all of this did the trick.

I'm beyond newbie and clueless with all of this stuff, but I was able to get it all working properly. So everyone else should be encouraged by that.

Thanks SO much for this modification, and all the input from people in this thread to help get it going. Hoping that this little update/consolidation of the process can be a help to someone who was as clueless as I going in. If not, everything you need is in this thread somewhere.

Hi Clarity,

Thanx for the heads up.:) And sorry to all that I haven't kept this hack up to date for the later versions. However, a good note is, vB3 uses a modified version of this hack for the non-wysiwyg post, thread, calendar and PM editor. :) Cool huh?

Scott

It's up to date enough for someone like me (read: non-tech oriented) to figure it out. ;)

Thanks a million for an outstanding modification, and I'm very happy to hear it's in v3.

i have a lil prob.. on 'get more smilies' when i click on a smilie to place it before a certain word it places it but erases the word *scratches head*

oh and since im comp illiterated, what do you mean when you say " Test the functionality on your board (in both enhanced and normal mode)." ?
