- At this moment I suggest uninstalling the old version and installing this new version.
REMEMBER this will delete all user moods, if you want old moods to be kept, please request and I'll post a how to.

FAQ
_ _

- How can I keep the old moods?

1) disable the old mood manager, install the new mood manager

2) run these queries

ALTER TABLE 'user' DROP 'vmood';

ALTER TABLE 'user' CHANGE 'mood' 'vmood' varchar(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'none';

- How can I change the location of the mood in the postbit?

disable the auto edit in the Admin CP, now you will have access to

$vmood_postbit

place that anywhere you want in the postbit templates (well the location where you want the mood to show)

- How can I change the location of the moods dropdown menu navbar

disable the auto edit in the Admin CP, now you will have access to

$vmood_form

place that anywhere you want in the navbar template, you can try other templates but I can't say if it will work or not

- Why am I getting two mood images in the postbit, how can I stop this from happening?

In the admin cp, disable the auto edit

More of a suggestion than anything else here. I noticed that when you opt to using other custom mood images it's not very user friendly and I had to go into the xml and insert the dimensions of the new mood icons that I designed. As you can see I set the title "my mood" so that it sits flush with the bottom of the icon in the postbit and I'm still tinkering around and trying to set it so it is flush under the private messages the same way as in the postbit because it seemed using the larger icons looked strangely aligned when the larger icons are applied.

If you could also bold the text "my moods" so that it is more prominent would be great so that you don't have to go into the xml file and alter each time when an update comes out.

I guess my suggestion is to apply a more user friendly solution for people who want to use other custom icons with different dimensions without us going into the xml file and altering it to the new mood image dimensions.

Good work sniper and I hope to see these small grievances addressed. :up:

thanks

Shelley, can you share what you did for the alignment? I want to make my own images also...so all you need to do is edit the .xml file for the different sizes?

[Shelley_c]

Edit the xml file and change the default dimensions to the appropriate sizes.

Find:

#vmoods {display: block; height: 28px; width: 93px;}

Change the dimensions to complement the new sizes and scroll down and change the sizes again to the following.

{
			$vmood = trim($vmood);
			$vmoods_li .= '<li><img src="' . $vbulletin->options['vmoods_images_path'] . '/' . $vmood . '.gif" width="93px" height="28px" alt="' . $vmood . '" class="vmood" /></li>' . "\r";
		}

Edit: I forgot to mention and I've only had the time to set it in the postbit so if your icons are nearing 30 pixels in height you'll noticed that the text "my moods" sits in the middle. If you want it sitting flush with the icon you'll need to change the vertical align to Botton instead of Middle where it was originally set as. Bare in mind all your settings will be lost whenever there's an update and your best waiting to see if sniper addresses these issues.

<span style="vertical-align: bottom;">$vbphrase[vmoods_my_mood]:</span> </span>

Thank you

The 3.6 version doesn't work for my users on 3.7, they keep getting the security token error, even thought the interface 'looks' alright.
To install this one, though, I need the flexibility to install it wherever I want on postbit, so I'm waiting for more detailed instructions or comments on how to do this.

I'll post an update later which allows you to set the image height / width and the alignment and option to place anywhere in postbit.

Thanks Sniper, this is one of my users' favorites hacks.

Is there a "no mood" option?
