Title: Clickable smilies Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Clickable smilies * Anonymous * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/) * Okay, I’m trying to get WP Grins to work. I did everything the README told me to but I always get this error. Easy way (through quicktags) and the hard way too. Fatal error: Call to undefined function: wp_grins() in /home/imysteri/public_html/ wp/wp-admin/edit-form-advanced.php on line 121 Why’s it doing that?

Using a plugin, or the hack? Oh…….what’s the error doing there ? The calls to that function go in quicktags. php and / or wp-comments.php * Thread Starter Anonymous * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77392) * It’s the plugin and it is activated. And the error shows up in both. When I go and make a post and in the comments. I put the in quicktags. php and in wp-comments like it told me to. * [Mark (podz)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/podz/) * (@podz) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77399) * What version of wp are you using ? * [adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) * (@adb) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77411) * Podz, I use that plugin too. It works fine for me except for one thing. What would cause one of the smilies not to display? It’s this one 😕 Just curious. * Thread Starter Anonymous * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77423) * I upgraded wp to the latest version. * [Mark (podz)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/podz/) * (@podz) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77428) * [@adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) – check the image actually uploaded okay ? [@anon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anon/) – how did you get the plugin ? Did you type anything into it ? All I can think is that somehow the fucntion name has been changed in the plugin itself.. otherwise I’m mystified. * [adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) * (@adb) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77478) * Yep, the image is there. Maybe I should reinstall? * [Mark (podz)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/podz/) * (@podz) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77480) * I just checked mine … I have the same problem 🙂 I can see the clickable image( face with a squiggly smile) but I just get 😕 in the comment. How odd . * [adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) * (@adb) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77482) * strange, indeed. * [willneea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/willneea/) * (@willneea) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77499) * There’s a reason why you’ll not find them on sites such as the the Zen Garden, CSS Vault, The Web Standards Awards, Zeldman.com, Meyerweb.com, May !st Reboot, and more… And it isn’t because they can’t get them working, in case your wondering. * [Mark (podz)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/podz/) * (@podz) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77530) * Yea, I know …….. but still, the odd smilie doesn’t hurt. I mean, I have a pixel perfect CSS template on my site, and I have styled it ala ‘Johnny Cash’ – you won’t see that on Zen Garden either 🙂 * [Mark (podz)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/podz/) * (@podz) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77556) * Sorted it. In ‘vars.php’ line 127 has this: ‘ :???:’ => ‘icon_confused.gif’, There is a space between the ‘ and the : at the beginning. I went to my test entry, added a space before the code, and it works. I suppose editing vars.php and removing spaces would work too. * [Mark (podz)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/podz/) * (@podz) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77568) * Whitespace. Check the file. There must be absolutely totally definitely nothing either before the very first It’s easily sortable 🙂 * [adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) * (@adb) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77572) * That didn’t work. Can I just delete it? Right now I’m thinking I don’t need the smilies. :-/ * [Mark (podz)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/podz/) * (@podz) * [21 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clickable-smilies/#post-77582) * If necessary, download a new wp, and use the vars.php from that ?
