So can I pick your brains? What interesting improvements are you thinking about?

'Appropriate' would be a reasonable synonym.

That seems logical to me.  Cool

Also, if you try to use a smiley set that is missing any of the smileys, then Seemly ignores -all- of the smileys, and just goes back to the default smileys.

What about this possibility? If a smiley is missing from the smiley set, instead of more or less turning off Seemly entirely, what about just going to the default set for that individual smiley?

Ideas for improvement are always welcome. It just won't be this week. Wink
(I have some ideas for improving it too.)

Now I am not asking about this for today, or necessarily this week, or any other specific time. But I am looking forward to the future and eventual possible improvements to this, so want to discuss problems or future improvements.

As mentioned before, the software does allow you to add smilies, even to the smiley block. You can see this in action in the below screenshot of one of my current forums ... I've done a lot of work on that smiley set.

But the thing is, I have added smilies to match in many of my other smiley sets, as well. It would be very nice to eventually see Seemly Smilies work with any of the smilies you have added on in the smiley center, like these.

Again, please don't hit me or hate me ... I am not asking 'can this be done today?' I am simply throwing out ideas for the future.

I just wanted to say THANK YOU! for this! I have been missing this mod for a very long time.

I expect there will still be some bugs to work out and details to fix, but it is already terrific and very helpful!

I'm sorry, I know I am not the most knowledgeable about this stuff ... if I download a snapshot of 1519 from 3 days ago, should I have the right stuff?

You can load the files in the SVN over your existing install (We're actually looking to release 2.6.1 shortly.)

OK, I installed the YaBB 2.6.0 package off the web site, and as noted elsewhere, the installation was remarkably smooth.

The problem is, it looks like the mods may not be for 2.6.0, but perhaps for a svn version of the forum. (Or somewhere I got a pre-release version of 2.6.0 rather than the final one, maybe.) Steps 9 and 13, I believe, are both looking for things that do not exist in the release package.

Step 13, for example, is looking in micon.def for a language call, yet there is no language call in the file I have.

Where do I find the latest build? And do I just want to load all the files over the top of what I already have installed?

Please don't misunderstand ... this is not a complaint, I just need to make sure I have the right version to work on. Smiley

Seemly Smilies is currently limited to the smilies you see below the posting box. (The ones listed as Smilies in YaBBC.pm.)

Adding more functions to the mod is on my ever growing list of things to do. (Even with just 17 Smilies, I think it would be nice to have users see the special smilies in posts even outside the assigned time.)

OK, I have been begging for this mod to return for ten years or more, so I guess I better get my butt in gear and set up a fully 2.6 test board and help in the testing of it!

That's what the 100 smileys list says at least...

This brings up a question. In the current version (or at least the previous version, and I assume the current version) of YaBB you can extend the main smiley set by as much as you want to. My forums have a smiley set made up of about 50 smilies. I have created those 50 smileys in all the major sets that I make use of.

Does Seemly manage to support this? If not, may I suggest a possible way that it could?
