Created a custom smiley. I created the GIF and saved it over the "confused.gif". The new smiley is a happy pterodactyl.

It still has the tag "confused" when it appears in the comment box before it's submitted. Is there an easy way to edit the tag

[Static]

Editing and adding smilies is a little complicated currently. If people really want to change it, I could write a tutorial. To change the text, go to "comments/includes/functions/processor.php", find the function 'comment_add_smilies', find the line with the ':­confused:' line and change the title and alt attributes.

Found the line and made the changes but it's not reflecting the change. Can you check to see if it's not cached properly?

Here's the edited code:
if ($enabled_smilies_confused) {
$comment = str_ireplace(":yellowpterodactyl:", "<img src='" . $url_to_comments_folder . "images/smilies/yellowptack.gif' title='Yellow Ptack' alt='Yellow Ptack' style='" . $smiley_styling . "'/>", $comment);

Leave :yellowpterodactyl: as :­confused: for now.

[james]

Will do. Thanks Static

No, I meant to say that

PHP Code:

<?php 

if ($enabled_smilies_confused) {

$comment = str_ireplace(":yellowpterodactyl:", "<img src='" . $url_to_comments_folder . "images/smilies/yellowptack.gif' title='Yellow Ptack' alt='Yellow Ptack' style='" . $smiley_styling . "'/>", $comment);

Wile. E. Coyote... super genius.

Nice work Static. =)

Well... strike that - it works good when filling out the comment but when it posts, it doesn't put the icon - just the words ":yellowpterodactyl:" and ":bluepterodactyl:"

PHP Code:

<?php if ($enabled_smilies_unsure) { ?>

<img src="<?php echo $path_to_comments_folder . "images/smilies/unsure.gif";?>" title="Blue Ptack" alt="Blue Ptack" class="smiley_image" onmousedown="addTags('',':bluepterodactyl:')"/>

<?php } ?>



<?php if ($enabled_smilies_confused) { ?>

<img src="<?php echo $path_to_comments_folder . "images/smilies/confused.gif";?>" title="Yellow Ptack" alt="Yellow Ptack" class="smiley_image" onmousedown="addTags('',':yellowpterodactyl:')"/>

<?php } ?>

[Static]

The bottom two should be:

PHP Code:

<?php 

if ($enabled_smilies_unsure) {

$comment = str_ireplace(":bluepterodactyl:", "<img src='" . $url_to_comments_folder . "images/smilies/yellowptack.gif' title='Yellow Ptack' alt='Yellow Ptack' style='" . $smiley_styling . "'/>", $comment);



if ($enabled_smilies_confused) {

$comment = str_ireplace(":yellowpterodactyl:", "<img src='" . $url_to_comments_folder . "images/smilies/yellowptack.gif' title='Yellow Ptack' alt='Yellow Ptack' style='" . $smiley_styling . "'/>", $comment);

You got it. Thanks for spending so much time helping. I'll pass along Commentics to several web programmers I know. Solid forum work for just you and Steven.

Great, I'm glad I could help. Just do one favor for me. If you use Internet Explorer, change your browser to something infinitely better, such as: Firefox, Opera, or Chrome. You'll like it. If you don't then you could keep using IE. If you don't use IE in the first place, then sorry for bugging you about it. I don't like that browser.
