Help needed using bbcode_parser on non forum text

[richy96]

Hi

I'm using the following code to parse forum text.

This is in a VBa CMPS module I have written that displays from selected forum posts in a list of 'Whats Occurring' on my site home page

	require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bbcode.php');
	$bbcode_parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list(),true);


	$occuredUser[$i]['announcetxt'] = $bbcode_parser->parse($occuredUser[$i]['announcetxt'], $forum['nonforum'], true);

It works in as much as it parses the BB code like text colour, bold, italic etc

However it does not Parse smilies (they just don't show up when the parsed text is output)

Smilies are enabled on my site and work in forums, PMs etc

What am I doing wrong?

Cheers
Rich

Had a play a bit further but still can't sort this myself

In Vbulletin OPtions -> BB Code Settings
Allow Smilies in Non Forum Specific Areas = Yes

I also tried the following as it seemed promising...

			$occuredUser[$i]['announcetxt'] = $bbcode_parser->parse($occuredUser[$i]['announcetxt'], 'nonforum', true);
			$occuredUser[$i]['announcetxt'] = $bbcode_parser->parse_smilies($occuredUser[$i]['announcetxt'], true);

Got me nowhere.

Parsed text OK, no smilies still - and a headache coming on
