Silly, I know, I know, but why my sub-menu in the Insert Smilie doesn't open the "Show all smilies" when I click on it? I'm envious, okay, of the people who show all kinds of emots, but me (not showing me, of course, but the emots, silly me).

Also, why doesn't the checking of an emoticon at the bottom "Post Icons" work?

So, the full q is: Where is the full list of emots and how do I activate it?

Thanks for help (tarnation, where's the smiley?)

Dan

If you have a pop-up blocker that might keep the emoticon box from appearing.

Hi Dan. First thing to check is your User CP.

  • Go to User CP
  • On the left, click Edit Options
  • Scroll down to Miscellaneous Options and you should see Message Editor Interface.
  • Choose Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing to get all the bells and whistles when you are creating a post.
With it set that way, when you are creating a post, you should see an interface that looks a lot like a word processor with a white smiley button you click to pick your smilies. If you scroll to the bottom of the drop-down list that appears when you click that button, you'll see Show all Smilies. Click that and a small window will appear. You may have to widen it to see both columns of smilies.

Hope this helps!


PS -- Ah, cross posting! BK makes a very good point. If you already have your options set and the smiley window isn't opening, it could very well be a pop-up blocker.

Hey WR.

So you have the enhanced post editor on, yet when you click on the white smilie button and scroll down to 'show all smilies' and click on that, you don't get the small window with two columns of smilies. Hmmm.

I suspect a browser setting of some sort may be the culprit. Perhaps you should pop over to the Tech Help forum and post your problem. Lots of savvy folks hang out there and one of them may have the answer.
