Smiling Mod

[Eon]

In the other site somewhere, I remember seeing somehting about the smiling mod and that it was better than smiley categories.

Is this so, and if so how can I get it for IM 140?

[Michaelo]

What did the other mod do?

[Eon]

Which one? I think they both did ab out the same thing if I am not mistaken.

[Michaelo]

There are two mods that allow different smilies for different themes. There is one mod that manages smilies... Which one is of interest?

[Eon]

One that manages smilies. Like if you a 1000 smilies, and could upload them all and change them and put them into groups and stuff.

Something like that would really slow down your forum plus increase the memory usage.

Using less than 50 smiles keeps things much more manageable and host friendly.

[Eon]

haha.. Ok this is so going where i don't want it to. Nevermind. I will just use the smiley category mod like I had before.

Thanks guys.

I think I saw that on crxgame old site but don't think the site is up these days... Sorry....

here is the smilie mod that i used. there was a bit of coding issues with it, and after Teelk went through everything and got all the coding right for me, i had no problems with it at all.

it allows you to create and manage different categories, and even hide certain smilies from the members (like christmas smilies for seasonal use)

i have found this to be very useful on my forum.

Right. This one I know ab out I used in my other site. I just saw someone mention the smiliing mod on IM 1 and they said it was better. How ever know one knows what I am talking about so I am sticking to smiley categories.

[ayasha]

well, i spoke too soon as far as problems, and i still don't know if this is a problem, but when you installed new smilies, did you ever have a problem with them not showing in post right away Eon? like they will show in previews, but not in the actual post right away?

seems like when i first installed this mod, it did that, and before i could get back to check things out, they began showing.

one of my admins installed some smilies this morning, and when you post, then look at the preview of your post, you see the smilie, but when you click submit, you see the code typed out.

but to answer your question about the other smilie mod, is this it?

we had that problem here. It may be a cache issue

[Eon]

Yeah I had that problem too. LOL I thought I had messed something up and installed the smilies again... Talking about a mess. It has to be something to do with the cash though.

[ayasha]

good, glad i was not loosing my mind....thought i had remembered it being a cache problem, but with the craziness in my life lately, just wanted to double check <img>

[Simon N]

Its not really a problem more a feature....since the cache is designed to do just that; store pages and load them rather than recompiling. Your browser cache can also do this hence using ctrl+f5 when refreshing page after making changes.

Unfortunatelly, Categories Hierarchy MOD is replacing lines of code where smilies are being selected from the database with its own, thus making it incompatible with the Smiling MOD...

I guess this one won't work on IntegraMOD, Eon... <img>

[Eon]

Are we using the CH Mod? And that was the other mod. But I will stay with Smiley Categories, I had it working.

[ayasha]

i prefer the Smilies Category MOD above the Smiling MOD also. i installed both on a test forum, and i liked the acp of the Smilies Category MOD better, it was simplier to me, and easier to keep the smilies organized.

it took about 12 hours for the cache to get right on my forum, and the new smilies i installed yesterday to show, don't know if that is good or bad, but at least they began showing <img>

[Eon]

It didn't take that long on my forum I didn't think, b ut I was messing with a lot of stuff too.

That's my site, which is no longer with us. <img>

That version was for IM 1.4.0 while the link that cleo has provided is for the original MOD I believe.

I pretty sure that I have it saved on my computer somewhere, but I'm having some issues with it and hopefully I'll be able to back some things up before having to wipe it.

is there a smiley category mod that people are using with 141?? hell, at this point, i'll take 140.

i installed Smiley Categories [v2.0.4] and it seems to be killing my viewtopic page... although it took a few months to manifest itself.

I'm currently reinstalling my site, installing and tweeking everything back to the point that i installed that mod and seeing if installing it is what killed me <img>

Is there a mod on the books to categorize smilies?? i know that it's recommended not to have more than 50 smilies, but my forum uses smilies like it's no one's business, and the simple solution would be to categorize instead of cutting back...

also... those of you that are using Smiley Categories [v2.0.4], how did you get the categories to show in the album comments section??
