End-User Options - Favorite Smilies

This add-on will allow members to create their own favorite smilies list, which can be useful on boards with lots of smilies. If a member creates a list, it will be displayed in place of the normal smilie box.

Maximum number of smilies is based on the 'Smilie Menu Total Smilies' option in 'Message Posting Interface Options'.


Features:

• Edit List in UserCP
• Javascript Enforced Limit
• Ignore Certain Smilie Categories
• Allow/Disallow usage based on usergroup
• Admin CP Help

thx for the update

OK...I don't know what the heck I did but I just upgraded to VBulletin 3.6.1 Everything is working fine but now when I click on the Smilie dropdown box in the editor...It says "Favorite Smiles" followed by one smilie...then there is a bar that says "Show ALL Smilies" and then the rest of my favorites. How would the Show All have gotten moved to the second line from the top instead of the bottom?

There is a minor change with 3.6.1 that affects this add-on. One of the things to 'find' in functions_editor.php has changed slightly. I've added a second set of installation instructions for 3.6.1 to the zip file.

Finding:

PHP Code:

                        else
                        {
                            $vBeditJs['smilie_options_array']["$smilie[category]"][] = "\t\t'more' : '" . addslashes_js($vbphrase['show_all_smilies']) . "'\n";
                            break;
                        }
                    } 


Becomes:

PHP Code:

                        else
                        {
                            $vBeditJs['smilie_options_array']["$prevcategory"][] = "\t\t'more' : '" . addslashes_js($vbphrase['show_all_smilies']) . "'\n";
                            break;
                        }
                        $prevcategory = $smilie['category'];
                    } 


dknelson, it sounds like you placed the add-on's code either before or immediately after:

PHP Code:

$prevcategory = $smilie['category']; 


It should be after the closing bracket after that line.

If you're unsure, get an unaltered copy of the 'functions_editor.php' file and make the modifications as shown in the 'Install_3.6.1' file I uploaded in the new zip.

That did it. Thank you very much.

Confirm that you completed step #2 in the install instructions.

I'd LOVE to install this hack, but before I do, I have a modification installed which displays "random smilies" next to the post window. (I have over 500 smilies on my forum)

That mod required editing functions_editor.php with new code for "order by random"... will this hack null out the random smilies, and if so, is there a fix for that?

*Reserving a spot for install*

[Darwinist]

In the very first part of step 1 of the installation instructions, look at the 'replace with' code. In this part:

PHP Code:

            else {
                $smilies = $vbulletin->db->query_read_slave("
                    SELECT smilieid, smilietext, smiliepath, smilie.title,
                        imagecategory.title AS category
                    FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "smilie AS smilie
                    LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "imagecategory AS imagecategory USING(imagecategoryid)
                    ORDER BY imagecategory.displayorder, imagecategory.title, smilie.displayorder
                ");
                $totalsmilies = $vbulletin->db->num_rows($smilies);
            } 


You would replace the...

PHP Code:

ORDER BY imagecategory.displayorder, imagecategory.title, smilie.displayorder 


line with...

PHP Code:

ORDER BY rand() 


The result would be random smilies in the smilie box when the user has not selected a favorite smilies list.

AWESOME. I'll give it a whirl later this evening. Thanks for the quick response.
