A Clickable Smilies hack for WordPress. Add, edit, remove, and manage the display of your smileys!
LMB^Box Smileys Plugin is for the Bloging System WordPress (www.wordpress.org). It is an easy
way to add better smiley support to wordpress. WordPress has a smileys feature built in but it
doesn’t let you click a link or button to see all the smileys available to the user. Now LMB^Box
Smileys does this and more! You can have LMB^Box Smileys add a button to the Comment Quicktags Menu
bar (LMB^Box Comment Quicktags plugin) or you can manually add a link to the smiles to your
comment.php theme file. Either way, once you click on the button/link, a new window will popup
and display the smileys page. You can edit the smileys page to display only certain smileys or
all (more on that in the Installation part below). Also the smileys have css styles set and you
can add the css tags to your stylesheet to see the results. One last thing, you can add your
OWN smileys that you make, have, or found! More info in the Installation part below.

the Smileys Tag. You only have to have a space BEFORE Smiley Tag or the Smiley Tag can be at the
beginning of a new line. You can now have:
(Beginning of Line OR Space):Smiley Tag:(Any Non-Alphanumeric Character OR Space OR End of Line)
2.7.2
I've found a fix that will take care of the problem with other plugins messing up the post or comment
content and Smileys Tags. There is now no need to use the modified version of the IImage Gallery
plugin. This fix makes WordPress process the LMB^Box Smileys filters first before the others,
which completely fixes the problem. This fix should also fix any other plugins that cause the same
problem now or in the future.
2.7.1
LMB^Box Smileys plugin package now includes a .txt file and a modified version of IImage Gallery to fix
problems that IImage Gallery causes. For more info, please read the IImage_Gallery_Fix.txt file.
2.7
Reworked Smileys Convert code: Fixed problems with the display of Smileys Tags and Short Smileys Tags.
2.6
Added title attribute to <img> tag for Smileys Images on Smileys Popup page and Smileys displayed
directly in the Comment Form Area.
Added more automatic loading options for auto-load Smileys Lists.
Changed the Smileys Images' filenames around and Smileys Tags (you may have problems with old posts!).
Reworked Disabled Smileys Image coding.
Added Short Smileys Tags and options to control, use and display them (step 6.3).
2.5
Added Sync Smileys Lists feature and automatic Smileys Lists loading.
Added Display Order for Smileys Lists.
2.4
Added ability to display Smileys in the Comment Form area directly without the Popup Page (step 3.1).
2.3
Just cleaned up some of the code and documentation.
Added check to see if any Smileys are displayed on Smileys Popup Page or not. If not, then you
get a "No Smileys Avalible! Contact the Admin to Activate the Smileys!" message.
Maybe: I may add a Template feature to allow an easy ability to customize the Smileys Popup Page,
but I'm not sure. It seems reduntent, but would be a nice feature to allow easy upgrade and
theme management.
Not Doing: I'm not going to add short Smiley tags like :) or :D because of the fact that I don't
know what every blog admin would want to use for the default short Smiley tags Smileys
(the smiley image). So if you really want the short tags, just add them to the Smileys Lists
that you want them to use (if you put the short tag above the long tag smiley, then on the
Smileys Popup Page, the short tag will be added to the comment/post form; and if you put the
short tag below the long tag, the long tag will be added to the comment/post form).
