Did you type the code in or use the plugin to insert the code? Not that it should make any difference.

I did finally manage to replicate the effect, but it meant I had to click the 'Create Post' button, but not allow the post to go through.. Clicking it a second time then scrambled the smiley code and I got the effect, but that shouldn't happen during normal use.

Are you having to hit the post button more than once to post??

The only thing I can think of doing is removing the alt altogether and removing the quote/edit function. If you are happy with losing the alt text then I can do tht for you, otherwise I'm stumped.

I almost always type it manually, and I don't recall ever having to hit the post button more than once.

I don't care about the alt text. Let's lose it.

Okidokes...

Please try this version.... (3.2.92).

I have stripped out the alt text and have disabled the function to return the smilies back to their codes when quoting. Hopefully that should fix your issue by not allowing the scenarios in which it can occur.

Installed with fingers crossed.

Thanks, Todge. You rock!

Todge : I tried using /* Hide the Shoutbox */
.shoutbox {display:none;}
and
changing the shoutbox layout line to <div class="$[shoutbox_class] container full" style="display:none;">
but the shoutbox is not hiding.

I am trying to still use the smilies in Quick Reply with the shoutbox hidden, since I see you can't just disable the shoutbox.

Thanks.

Hi Timebomb007

Todge mentioned being away until the end of January but perhaps I can talk you through this before then.

The Style Sheet addition/* Hide the Shoutbox */
.shoutbox {display:none;}seems to be on the very last line of the Style Sheet for your default theme on your forum and viewing it as a guest, I don't see the shoutbox. But that's theme-specific. If other themes are available on your forum, you would need to add that line to all of them.

OR

You could wrap that in style tags and put it in your Global Footer. That way it would affect any theme that was being used to view the forum.

<style>
   /* Hide the Shoutbox */
   .shoutbox {display:none;}
</style>

After inserting a smiley, then going back to edit the post in bbcode, an indent was added on the first line of text.

I added the following to the Global Header, (as I have multiple themes), but it would also work being added at the botom of the stylesheet. Turns out, this doesn't fix the problem!

<style>
   /* Fix for indent in bbcode editor. */
   .form_post_edit .bbcode-editor textarea {
       margin-left: -7px;
   }
</style>

Thank you Nscalerr, I have tried over and over to get rid of that annoying addition to the UBBC editor.

Unfortunately, the fix you suggest will effect the entire textarea, so if you have multiple lines then you will hide the first character of every line..

[Nscalerr]

Scrub that idea then, I will have to keep fiddling and see if I can find something a bit more specific.


Update on the pc.

Tested that today and I see what you mean!

[Nscalerr]

Todge the following does not appear at this stage to be causing the problem that the other version did. I will leave it in place, in the Global Header of my forum, for more testing.

/* Fix for indent in bbcode editor. */
.form_post_edit .bbcode-editor textarea {
   text-indent: -7px;
}

Better, but it will only work if you start your post with a smiley, otherwise you will still hide the first character of the first line when you edit a post.. I should have told you that I tried the CSS route, at least as far as my knowledge of CSS goes anyway, sorry about that.

I did get a fix but it didn't work in Safari.. For some reason it appears to be behaving itself now.. Try this version...

Version 3.2.93

[Nscalerr]

This version appears to be working.

[aRMY83]

Hello Nscalerr and Todge,

Just gave the v3.2.93 a go and it's working just fine on this end with no indent issues.

[Todge]

Thanks guys.. I'll submit this to the library.
