Smileys/Emoticons - Do You Know????

by freyasmom Fri Jan 02, 2015 6:21 pm

Hello and Happy New Year!

How do I add smileys/emoticons that are NOT in the ACP>Display>Smileys area? There are many that I'd like to have such as an angel, devil, RFL, and some I notice to the right of this message that are on your site. How do I do this please? I am NOT tech savvy but I want the BEST for my members.

Thanks so very much.

Hey Matti

...I tried to add some smileys but I am pretty sure the code they use is too long as when I try to use them it just repeats the last one made ...is there a way to shorten the code ?...Or is there a specfic type of code I am looking for???

What code are you talking about can you post it here...

You can save them first to your desktop then add them.

So I don't need the codes??? Sorry this is all new to me...when I tried to just add them it kept giving me an error message..would you mind giving me a short explanation??? I would like to add them for my forum users....Is there some other wording I can use instead of that code?? I hope that makes sense to you!!

sorry where did I do that???just noticed it wasnt aimed at me and FYI to anyone like me that has NO CLUE HOW TO DO SMILEYS you dont have to use a code once you have saved the pic to your desktop you can give it a title and use that as a code ie :group in the code box group as title get smiley from browser and wallah!!!
Figured out that it must be easy from Mati above but still had to go try a few things but it really is that easy !!!
