Smilies and bbcode work, no option to disable.

The default preview length is hard coded to 150 chars, you'd need to edit a file to change it.

Where can this preview text be adjusted? I know there is a preview adjustment in the content setting in the admincp but I want to adjust the preview text for the recent posts or threads widgets. Is this possible?

Thanks

I think he is talking about the same issue I have been trying like hell to solve lately which is having recent threads with a large section of the post displaying in the primary content area without being there as a promoted article. I have been asking over and over if there is any solution and have yet to get a single helpful reply.

One of those widgets could work if the amount of preview text could be increased. Add the posters avatar and images from the post and it could be a decent addition and would really lessen the need for having to promote threads to articles..

I am still working on this but I modified the recent threads widget file to increase preview text. Still working on customizing for images, etc
