*Clicks Install

I am not sure if this is the hack I was looking for or not. One of the forums I go to have it where on the new thread/reply page they have their smilies categorized like:

Basic
-smilies here-

Other
-smilies here-

Is this hack supposed to do this or did I do something wrong when I installed it?

Here is a snapshot:

Is this correct? And if it is am I looking for a different hack or an add-on or something?

And yeah, I have 2 different smilie categories in the admicp.

Hope that made sense...

Thanks.

Hi,

this hack lets you categorize all your smilies when you click on the button "more smilies" on your reply page. It does not categorize your smilies on the right side of your reply box. Only if you click on the "more" button.

Hope this clarifies.

Cheers,

OK, I am going to email the admin of the board then and ask him where he got it then.

But thanks for the help man. Still a great hack and plan to keep it. Good job with it. :ninja:

Did you ever find a fix for this?

Listen since you seem to know exactly what is going on around here LOL how do you set up permisions for these catagories... you think you will add this?
I am clicking install where ever you have a hack that is for sure.

Hi T3media,

currently I do not aim to integrate permissions on the categories. But never say no. Let's see.

Cheers,

Thank you!

Pseudomizer, and what about to add a item in the form list to show all smilies (from all categories)?

It's posible?
How?

I like this hack, but some users who don't want to know all smilies in certain category would wish to display all of them, like the old way.
Is too hard to add a "show all" item and display the entire collection of smilies?

Hello TCattitude,

this would be possible but i would strongly recommend not to do it. Before my hack you had all smilies on one page. With my hack you have the ability to show the smilies in different categories.

What you are requesting would be a major change to the userprofile, the templates and the smilie php file to add the ability to set which mode you wish to have to display the smilies: with or without categories.

If you would implement something like this then some of your members who would like to see the smilies without categories will get timeouts because you have to many smilies or the load of the page would take ages.

My hack is aiming for the boards which want to implement a lot of smilies and make it browseable with the appropriate performance.

So my suggestion for you: If the majority of your members don't like the categories switch back to the normal view. Otherwise stay with my hack.

Cheers,
