I'm using the previous version of that particular plugin for now and all seems to be working okay apart from quoting.

(I am not much of a coder) Why did you need to change this plugin? What differs to make the mod more effective.

Old code:

if (!isset($GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid']) OR empty($GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid']))
{
	// Just in case... just depending on $GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid'] without this
	// check didn't work for me on previews when editing signature.
	$GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid'] = $this->registry->userinfo['userid'];
}

if ($this->registry->options['mysmiliesvb_option_masterswitch'] AND $GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid'])
{
	$smiliesurlbase = $this->registry->options['mysmiliesvb_option_smiliesurl'];
	$smilies = $this->registry->db->query("
		SELECT *
		FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "mysmiliesvb
		WHERE userid='{$GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid']}'
	");

	while ($smilie = $this->registry->db->fetch_array($smilies))
	{
		if (empty($smilie['smilietext_parsed']))
		{
			continue;
		}

		eval('$smilie[\'image\'] = "' . fetch_template('mysmilies_imagebit') . '";');

		$text = preg_replace("@" . $smilie['smilietext_parsed'] . "@isU", $smilie['image'], $text);
		$this->cached['text'] = $text;
	}
}

New code:

if (!isset($GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid']) OR empty($GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid']))
{
	// Just in case... just depending on $GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid'] without this
	// check didn't work for me on previews when editing signature.
	$GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid'] = $this->registry->userinfo['userid'];
}

if ($this->registry->options['mysmiliesvb_option_masterswitch'] AND $GLOBALS['mysmiliesvb_userid'] AND !empty($this->registry->sv_mysmiliesvb))
{
	$smiliesurlbase = $this->registry->options['mysmiliesvb_option_smiliesurl'];

	foreach ($this->registry->sv_mysmiliesvb AS $smilie)
	{
		eval('$smilie[\'image\'] = "' . fetch_template('mysmilies_imagebit') . '";');

		$text = preg_replace("@" . $smilie['smilietext_parsed'] . "@isU", $smilie['image'], $text);
		$this->cached['text'] = $text;
	}
}

I see mention of the database in the old version. Does that mean I will create more queries by altering this?
