Choose A Smilie Pack Via UserCP

[Th3Eagle]

how do I set it up, so the users can each choose which set of smiley's they want to see?

An Example of What I mean:

Say I have 5 users that each choose a different Smiley pack to see on my board

User 1 chooses Bears
User 2 chooses Standard (default)
User 3 chooses Animated Monkey
User 4 chooses Pirate Emoticons v2
User 5 chooses Wacky Emoticons

I Post a message with a wink ( ) Emoticon in it.

So,

User 1 See's:

User 2 See's:

User 3 See's:

User 4 See's:

User 5 See's:

This is done Automatically based on Which Smilie Set they Chose in thier UserCP


Is there a MOD that would Allow this???????

I'm using VB3.6.8

I have been told this works, UNTRIED....

Different Smileys for Different Styles 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't know if this has been posted before, couldn't find anything specific using the searches.

Anyhow, I've found a super simple way to have different smileys, depending on the skin in use.

I.E. I've created a "Work Safe" skin, which replaces my otherwise red smileys, with subtle grey ones.

Copy your old set of smileys, and copy them to a new folder within your Images folder. Now, either edit the smileys you wish to change etc.

Find the path to your smilies folder, I.E. www.yoursite.com/forums/images/smilies

Go to "AdminCP" > "Styles & Templates" > "Replacement Variables Manager"

Now click on "Add new replacement variable" next to the style of your choice.

Where it says "Search for Text " enter the path above, I.E. "www.yoursite.com/forums/images/smilies and where it says "Replace With Text" change the "smilies" folder to whatever you've called your new smileys folder.
I.E. "www.yoursite.com/forums/images/smilies_newstle"

Thank You for replying,

However that works for different "Styles & Templates"

I'm trying to get it to work on just 1 (the default) Style.

Where Each User can choose their own Smilie Pack to use,
instead of me deciding for every user which Smilie Pack will be seen.
