What do you mean? When you post a topic, the smilie isn't working?

I think ovi wants to disallow smilies in posts, but allow them in topic subjects...

if you mean you want to add smiles to a forum's Subject..
u can edit your post_info.asp file

there are many different section in post_info.asp
search this line: if MethodType = "Forum" then
and below this section...
change this line
txtSubject = ChkString(Request.Form("Subject"),"SQLString")
to this..
txtSubject = ChkString(Request.Form("Subject"),"message")

and the same doing in this section:
if MethodType = "EditForum" then

then it will allow you insert smile forum code when you create new or edit a forum.

BUT... the F_SUBJECT database field is limit to 100 characters length,
so i think it should not allow you add too many smileys ~

DoraMoon, you've got the point, but unfortunately it doesn't work...

I've changed both sections as told - and I still see the smiley-forum-tag instead of the actual picture.

Did it work on your system?

Sorry about the name convention. The smileys work just fine in the message (as they should), but the subject/title is the problem.

hi~ ovi

when test this way on my system, it seem work for me.
but i guess it's because i've "HTML Allow" on my forum...

and i strongly suggest you DO NOT allow HTML just for the reason of adding a smile in subject/title.

then i have no good idea how to do this, if HTML is off, it seem must change many thing to show smile in subject..
for example: in default.asp, the forum title show in this..
chkString(rsForum("F_SUBJECT"),"display")
then you must change it to
rsForum("F_SUBJECT")

and on other pages (forum.asp,active.asp...), there are many places need to do the same modification. it seem NOT a good way ~~

i'll think about this again, if find another simple method to do this, will let you know... or maybe just waiting for someone else's good opinion about this.

sorry can't help you ~~~

I'd be happy to hear if other has a shortcut to this problem.
