Smilies

[cobraclub]

Hmm, I have an odd problem.

Smilies show up in the editor, but not in the actual post when submitted. I have smilies enabled in posts.

Any clues?

Is this when submitting an entry or a reply? Can you link me to a page where you're experiencing this problem?

Submitting an entry.

Replies are fine and the smilies are shown.

They seem to be working fine for me as a guest. Do you perhaps have images disabled in your User CP (disabling images there would affect vBa Dynamics as well)? Or have you perhaps figured it out since your post? Or am I just missing something?

[cobraclub]

This is really odd.

I have images both inline etc enabled in my user cp, but when logged in I cannot see the smilies in the entry but I can in the reply.

If I log out, I can see the smilies in both. :confused:

I have cleared my cookies and re-logged in but it is the same, so its not a corrupt cookie error.

I have just logged in as a different user and the same issue as above, so its not user specific, it looks like it is only when logged in.

Strange... Could I get you to submit a support ticket via the Members' Area here so I can have a look at things?

Brian, I'm having pretty much the same thing on my end and with image bbcode too. I have it all enabled with the category; what have I overlooked?:confused:

[Brian]

It looks like those images are not being parsed properly for some reason... Would you mind submitting a support ticket so I can have a look at things and figure out what's causing it?

[Dawn]

Submitted ---thanks for checking it out for me:)

I'm having the same problem too. I can't summit new entry without getting error messages. Fail to update the new summit entry.:confused:

[Brian]

What error messages are you receiving?

[hajji]

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.8:

Invalid SQL:

INSERT INTO adv_dyna_entrypublish
(entryid, pubdateline)
VALUES (
0,
1188816000
);

MySQL Error : Duplicate entry '0' for key 1
Error Number : 1062
This is the type of error I'm getting without updating the new summit entry and three of smiles are with (X).

[Brian]

There shouldn't be any way you would get that SQL error... Are you trying to save entries as a draft with a specific publishing date when you do, or does that happen any time you try to submit an entry, even if it is not a draft?

For the smilies, please see this thread (http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1345).

Thanks Brian your suggestions fix the problem. Now I get to see how to fix the broken smilies if I can do it base on the thread you furnish.
I will keep you posted.

[hajji]

I try all the information you provide in that thread but, it didn't do it for me.
Any other suggestions or assistance will really appreciate.

[Brian]

Are you trying to save entries as a draft with a specific publishing date when you do, or does that happen any time you try to submit an entry, even if it is not a draft?

[hajji]

I already fix that. Smilies is the problem now I get 4 smilies with an (X). Information you provided is not fixing the problems. It needs to be fixed. Can you look into this problem for me?


Thanks

Updating Smilies & Icons Manually:
Log into your Admin CP, go to your Smilie Manager and Icon Manager, and add the full URL to each image listed in those sections.

[hajji]

WOW!! I get it.
The URL is the magician it fixed it, and I only add URL to the 4 smilies with the (X) and they come back to life.
I'm glad you push me to do this by myself. I'm learning the trade and I loving it.

Thanks Brian for your courage and leadership.
