Smilies

[Hightower]

I have a fireboard installation on my Joomla and want to add new smilies.

Whats the quickest way of doing this? I don't want to add them all individually because I'll be on for days.

You should upload your new smilies to the following folder:

/components/com_fireboard/template/default/images/english/emoticons/

Then you can choose them from the fireboard backend admin.

Also this might be of use. Mass Smiley insert

Thanks mate.

Not using that as is but using some of the script to add it myself:

<?php
// Make a MySQL Connection and connect to a table
mysql_connect("MYSQL SERVER ADD", "USER", "PASS") or die(mysql_error());
echo "Connected ";
mysql_select_db("jom1") or die(mysql_error());
echo "to database<br /><br />";

for ( $counter = 1; $counter <= 837; $counter += 1){
    $idno = 49 + $counter;
    $smilie = ':smilie_' .$counter. ':';
    $loca = $counter. '.gif';
    
    mysql_query("INSERT INTO 'content01'.'jos_fb_smileys'('id','code','location','greylocation','emoticonbar')
    VALUES ('$idno','$smilie','$loca','','0')") or die(mysql_error());
}
    
?>

Getting an error for the mySQL statement though - it's all fairly new to me so can anybody help?

mysql_query("INSERT INTO 'content01'.'jos_fb_smileys'('id','code','location','greylocation','emoticonbar')
    VALUES ('$idno','$smilie','$loca','','0')") or die(mysql_error());

Thanks,

Right - I have created a script that can be easily edited if anybody needs to do the same as me.

It's my first time at releasing one of my own scripts into public so please be kind.
