thanks but vBulletin does not have editor in admincp - not a bug (product for vbulletin not vbadvanced)

regardless, I will look into this

[IrPr]

You right Joe
but it has conflict with another mods such as eCDownloads which has editor

BTW thanks again

[DieselMinded]

Can you make this work with the PM Quick Reply ?

[rapidphim]

I am having problem in conflict by using this hack and this
http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=155297&highlight=mviet

After I install this hack, the mviet hack is disappeared. Can someone please post a fix or guide how to avoid the conflict between the two? Thanks.

I am temporary disable the hack so that the mviet can show up.

[PGAmerica]

I installed this and it is working very well thank you.

However, I am noticing alot of unused space. See the attached image for an example of what I an referring too.

Since the smilie box is no longer beside the message box. Is there a way to fill that space with the message box?

In the new location of the smilie box, the smilies do not fill the available space. Is there a way to make them fill the box provided for them?

[Howell]

You will need to edit the smilies settings in AdminCP to change number of smilies per row etc...

GOTO - AdminCP -> vBulletin Options -> Message Posting Interface Options.

You can then change how many smilies to show and the number per row. ;)

[PGAmerica]

OK, that answers my 2nd issue. What about the other dead space?

[GlitterKill]

After installing this hack I am now running into a strange issue with the Downloads II add on. The editor for the comments shows the smilies as a horizontal line but it is NEXT to the message box instead of under it. :) You can see the problem here (as well as the attachment): http://www.forumapex.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=14

Any idea where to fix this? I have looked through all of the Downloads templates to no avail.

[goddess_dix]

OK, that answers my 2nd issue. What about the other dead space?

look in the mod description-


Q)__ How can I increase the width of editor?

A)__ To change editor width:
Form Width (http://vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/stylevar_formwidth)
Message Width (http://vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/stylevar_messagewidth)
UserCP Form Width (http://vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/stylevar_formwidth_usercp)
UerCP Message Width (http://vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/stylevar_messagewidth_usercp)

[PGAmerica]

Thank you so much for the form width info. Now my forums are perfect again.

[coffee]

Can you make this work with the PM Quick Reply ?

/me Seconds that, and also quick replies of 'Profile/Group/Albums Messaging'

[GlitterKill]

Noone knows how I can try to fix this problem?

[Hostboard]

I see your using the MSN smilies in your screen shot. Would you happen to have them on a transparent background or know where I could D/L them from?

Thanx

[GlitterKill]

Do you mean my smilies, Hostboard? I am still looking for a way to either move those smilies under the editor window or remove them from that editor window all together?

[rootnik]

Great for fixed-width forums. Installed, thanks.

[goddess_dix]

no ideas?
:(
the mod you're talking about says this -
This will only work on styles with unedited editor templates. If your editor templates are modified then you will need to revert them to apply this change. To do this follow the steps below.

so that one has to be done and working first, before you make additonal edits. have you tried it in that order? to get helpful info, providing some details of what you're trying, what order, and what is happening will make it much easier for others to try and help.

yes, if your templates are modified from previous version than you do not need this one

[Chadi]

I don't know why, but this is somehow tampers with the toolbar icons. If I disable it, the toolbar returns to normal mode as shown in the screenshot. It scales the 16x16 icons back to 21x20 default size.

This is one great mod, many thanks for releasing it!

One question: Is it possible to do the same for the downloadtopics in DownloadsII mod? My screen is stretching big time because thanks to this mod, I could display more smilies on a page. However, it is doing the same on downloadpages in the DownloadsII mod. Since it is still displayed right next to the quick reply box, the width of the page is enormous at the moment.

Please help me out. Many thanks in advance.

Hey Princeton I noticed that the PNG hack was open code so I edited your code to include Waynes PNG hack. Let me know if I can post it up here. It basically allows the PNG hack to work with your smilie hack.

Adding the Smilies hack stoped the PNG icons from displaying and only shows the gif icons.

will this work with 3.7.4?

and we are not supposed to make any edits in the templates right?

[effeff70]

Very good.....Thanks a lot

[dmknights]

Works perfect

[msolano]

The product is great, but:

If anybody have vbadvanced and this plugin installed, and you have problems with the vbadvanced multipage feature you need to add the bold text to "Replace Templates - editor_smiliebox & editor_toolbar_on"

if ($toolbartype AND ($vbulletin->options['smtotal'] > 0 OR $vbulletin->options['wysiwyg_smtotal'] > 0) AND !defined('VBA_SCRIPT'))
{
// replace templates
$vbulletin->templatecache['editor_smiliebox'] = $vbulletin->templatecache['editor_smiliebox_GTSMILIEBOX_3700'];
$vbulletin->templatecache['editor_toolbar_on'] = $vbulletin->templatecache['editor_toolbar_on_GTSMILIEBOX_3700'];
}

This is to disable this hack into vbadvanced, until somebody find a real fix.
Thanks Brian (vbadvanced) for your support.

Thanks for posting this, it's been bugging the hell out of me for a while now that my smilie box keeps pushing everything outside of the message form. :)

[eglyntine]

Ok I haven't tested this but I was running into problems this morning trying to add a Photoplog Gallery Insert button onto the Message Editor Toolbar. I use TMS so it's not that hard to add and remove modifications so I was playing around with it and for the life of me I couldn't get it to show up. It would show up on the Quickreply message editor toolbar but not the advanced message editor toolbar.

Well after about an hour of ripping my hair out, I remembered seeing that there was a GTSmiliebox editor template (editor_toolbar_on_GTSMILIEBOX_3700) separate from the editor_toolbar_on template.

Long story short, I think this mod takes priority over the original vBulletin editor_toolbar_on template with it's own and that's why you aren't seeing your PNG buttons from Wayne's Mod.

I downloaded Wayne's xml file just to see what it actually modifies and it is modifying the original editor_toolbar_on. Perhaps if you were to replace the line in his xml file that calls out the editor_toolbar_on template and use the editor_toolbar_on_GTSMILIEBOX_3700 template instead, it will show your PNG buttons?

In Wayne Luke's PNG Editor Buttons editor-png.xml file:

Code:

Replace with:

I haven't tested it and I could be totally off but I thought I would share what I found out this morning in the hopes that it could be helpful to you all having problems with the PNG buttons.

Thanks,

E.

BTW, thank you very much for this mod.

I have the same, issue, it wouldn't let me use bb code modula, unless i disable the xml of this mod, creat my modula then enable it again.

[KevinL]

I like it and figured everything out...durp haha

[Digital Jedi]

Any reason why this will only show vertical on my board and not horizontal like on the pictures?

I have 1 smilie row down haha
You still need to change the number per row in your vBulletin Options settings.

I got problems using this hack, problem occures in Vba dynamics
When I disable this hack everything is just fine
I cant edit modules under Vba if I use this hack

Will try This mod under Vb 3.8, but I think problem is related with VBA not VB

Any pointers?

[theparentpack]

You are right the conflict is with vBa CMPS. Whenever I need to edit my bbcode modules for CMPS I have to disable this hack or the content of the module as well as the editor do not appear when I pull up the module to edit it. I look forward to cutting out the extra step!

Thanks for this great hack!

It seems you'll only have an issue with vBA if you have multipage on it.
I have only on vBA page and it seems good as it is.

[Gladhatter]

It has 0 issues that I can find.

[goxy63]

Fix for Vba would be highly appreciated.

[odln018]

Is there a mod that allows for the smilies to be displayed in a separate popup box?

[Gladhatter]

NO mod I know of but any smiles beyond what you set in admin cp to display will be available in a pop up. Hope this helps.

[itsheinz]

How about in the quick reply?

[Gladhatter]

Quick reply is just that quick. If you wish smiles and advanced features then either turn off quick reply so it is not available or else do not use it.

[goxy63]

Fix for Vba would be highly appreciated.

Yes, it comes up if you do a Titles Only search. The link you posted isn't the same thing as this modification. That's a plugin to modify Quick Reply. This moves smilies location in the main editor, which that modification you posted doesn't affect at all.

Actually, it does include a 'smiliebox below editor' option in amongst all the rest (you can find it with ctrl+f), but I agree absolutely it's not the same thing!

Here's a pure and simple 'smiliebox below editor' for version 4:

This will move the smiliebox on reply to thread, though not for other editors, such as 'edit signature' - and apparently (according to one of my users) the smilies aren't clickable in Mac/Safari. So it doesn't reproduce GTsmiliebox perfectly, but it's still a great thing to find.

That's the fundamental difference, though. This moves smilies in the main editor, while that one moves smilies in quick reply. I'm not familiar with Lynn's, but I've always edited vB3 manually, myself. I had this installed for a while, until I became more comfortable with editing templates. I think in the case of moving smileys, while not necessarily true of other template edits, it's probably the better option.

Huh... oh, yes, see what you mean. (I have a forehead-slapping smilie in my forum - missing it here...)

Anyway, I'm not remotely comfortable editing templates. Lots of good karma for the writers of add-ons.
