PHP file to alphabetize your smilies

[aciurczak]

If your board has a bunch of smilies that you added over time, keeping them in order can be a real pain in the ass. Makes sense to alphabetize them. But it's a real pain in the ass to do it manually with the display order field. This php file does the work for you, after you run it your smilies displayorder will be in alpha order from the smilie titles.

Upload file to the includes/cron directory, and set up a scheduled task. Keep the task marked inactive.

filename that the task calls will be: ./includes/cron/alphasmilies.php

Then just go to scheduled task, click run, and your smilies are now in alpha order, and the displayorder increments by 10 so there's plenty of space to add more smilies later in the right spot, if you want to sort a few manually.

Also, this keeps categories intact, so if you have multiple smilie categories, this will sort them within each category, but will not group all smilies into a single category.
