podz…thanks for checking in. The smilies are supposed to show up in posts and comments…right now they are just showing as 🙂 in text. I checked the vars file too..they’re all there. The acutal smile pics are in blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/ and they’re all still there. Weird because they were working fine, now wonky. I switched back to my old theme for a minute to check but they problem is there as well.
Oh and thanks for letting me know about the other issues as well…those are fixed now.
Can you make one post with lots of smilies in ?
A separate post and link it directly here ?
Here is a post that should have a smiley “:badgirl:” in the first line. http://www.divaknitting.com/blog/?p=224
I’ll check.
Can you sign off the other thread and keep this issue in one place ? Makes life easier 🙂
That looks like you have unchecked the Option for WP to convert smilies to images…
doh! Of course I didn’t check the most simple thing…I never unchecked it though so that is bizarre. AND if I click it now and hit update, it doesn’t save the new setting! What now?
Just getting more strange. I had deleted the cache days ago and added this to my wp-config to disable it.
define (‘WPLANG’, ”);
/* Stop editing */
define(‘DISABLE_CACHE’, true);
define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__).’/’);
require_once(ABSPATH.’wp-settings.php’);
?>
However, when I just checked there was the cache file and the wp-config didn’t have the line! I just repeated both things and still no smiles. When I go to options, convert smiles and update, it still won’t save.
I have the same problem as oncidium! The smilies don’t show in the post but they show up in the admin panel! I then looked if the option for smilies was unchecked. And it was. But if I want to update so that it converts the smilies it won’t save. I tried putting this: define(‘DISABLE_CACHE’, true); into wp-config but that didn’t work either! Can somebody please help?
Have you checked the names and the locations of the smilies in the wp-grins.php file? Is the path correct? I use the more-smilies plugin along with wp-grins. If a filename is incorrect you will see the 🙂 instead of the actual image.
I did that! And they are correct! The problem is that I can’t save the options in the admin panel if I change them!
Do you get any error messages when you attempt to save the options? Have you tried deleting the plugin, reinstalling? Also-one thing I noticed after upgrading to WP2.0-if you have the built-in editor enabled, it wouldn’t allow me to click a smilie and insert to a post. I would try reinstalling the plugin, enable it, turn off the text editor (Users/Your Profile-uncheck “Use the visual rich editor when writing”) and try a test post.
