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

All seems to be done but it still isnt there, cant see an option in the user group manager either though?

At the very bottom of the usergroup permissions page, in the 'Usergroup Options' section, there should be the option 'Allow Users to Select Favorite Smilies'. If it's not there, then you'll have to make sure the 'bitfield_favoritesmilies.xml' file has been uploaded to the includes/xml directory.

I installed this and it was working perfectly fine until several members who upgraded to Internet Explorer 7 started complaining that their smilie box was cut off. I didn't have problems with mine because I was using the previous version of IE but now that I just upgraded, the box is being cut off on mine also. It doesn't matter what I set the number of rows to, it still cuts them off. If I set it to 5 rows, it only shows 4 of them. If I set it to 4 rows, it only shows 3 of them. But it only does this for a new reply and new thread. When PMing, it seems to be okay :ermm:

Here are the two screen shots so you can see what I'm talking about. One is of the smilies being cut off and the other is with them showing fine when I'm PMing someone. This seems to only be an error with IE 7 because it works fine on the other browsers. Any idea how to correct this?

[BrandiDup]

no ideas? :/

First: I love the mod ! I am using it ! Second: Is there a way to go one step further and add the Favorites to a Quick-Reply post form ? That would be great !!! There is a mod already for Quick-Reply smilies, but I would like to use the favorite ones there ! Thanks ...

This add-on simply alters the list of smilies that is shown (the data). It does not change the way the data is displayed. Apparently the problem is browser-related and is a result of vBulletin's template not being displayed properly. I tried looking up information on this problem, but seem to come up empty handed. I'll keep my eye out and when I upgrade to IE7 myself, I'll see if I encounter the same problem. Sorry I can't be more of a help.

Ricardo: I'll certainly look into that option when I get a chance.

OK, thanks for checking into it for me. I figured it was just browser specific since I didn't have any problems on the old version of IE and I'm getting no complaints from anyone except those on the new version. Its not a huge deal, but please do let me know if you find a fix for it! I've tried just about everything I can as far as changing the number of smilies and rows to turning off the tabbed browsing in IE and nothing seems to be working. So, any info you can find would be wonderful! Thank you. :classic:

[BrandiDup]

Oh, I did want to let you know... when I clear my list of fav smilies and just use the default ones I have set for the board, there are no problems with displaying them, even with the same number of smilies and rows. So, it seems to be only when you select your fav smilies that the error happens.

Uh, guests can visit the smilies page. Is this intended? Does it save it to a cookie or something?

Hey i did it ! It works for me and in no way I am saying it will work for anybody else. Here what I did:

On functions_editor.php I commented this lines:

// if ($editor_type == 'qr')
// {
// // no smilies
// }
// else

On the Templates at showthread_quickreply I found:

<td><div class="imagebutton" id="{$editorid}_cmd_wrap0_quote"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/quote.gif" width="21" height="20" alt="$vbphrase[wrap_quote_tags]" /></div></td>

And added after it:

<!-- wysiwyg smilies -->
<td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/separator.gif" width="6" height="20" alt="" /></td>
<td><div class="imagebutton" id="{$editorid}_popup_smilie" title="$vbphrase[smilies]">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/smilie.gif" alt="" width="21" height="20" /></td>
<td class="alt_pickbutton"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/menupop.gif" width="11" height="16" alt="" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div></td>
<!-- / wysiwyg smilies -->
