Post Reactions 1.0.1 [Updated: 1st May, 2016]

Ok, so this is what I tried first. <img src="..."> The image appeared on the button on the post but not the pop up.
Then I tried.. The entire code showed up on post button and pop up button.
Then I tried just the image URL, and the URL appeared on both the post button and pop up button.
All in the text field...


Then I posted here.

I am reading the BB code quick reply coding to see if I can think of one of my convoluted solutions, but I am really hoping somebody can give me a clue so that I don't have to stumble through this with my eyes closed.

Does anybody know why this plugin randomly stops and starts working?

When adding the image in the plugin's UI in the Image URL field, don't put it in HTML tags - just put it as a link: http://link_to_image.com/image.jpg

I'm sorry. I wasn't clear. Here is a screen shot of what I was asking about. I am pretty sure that I used the text fields' labels specifically. I'm sorry that I wasn't clear enough. 

I hope that helps. Thanks. -Nina

Has to be text. You can leave them blank and use some CSS to have a background image if you are trying to make it fit with your other buttons for your theme.

I'm sorry. I have a stupid question... Can I use the CSS directly in the text fields or somewhere else?

I have no web design experience until now, but one of my degrees was in architecture... A lot of help that does me now...

No, you have to use CSS in the style sheet under Admin > Themes > Advanced Styles & CSS > Style Sheet

[BilliTheCat]

I mean to ask specifically, where do I do this so that it only affects these two buttons?

Masha'Allah!  I know where my template and style sheet are. Since, the buttons are not on my template, and I don't know what and where on the style sheet to put the background image in, do I put in the global header?

BilliTheCat,

Can you post a screen shot of how you want it to look, and also post the url to the image for the button?

.controls a.button[data-reaction] {

background-image: url(http://storage.proboards.com/6199338/i/cMdz93gk9RF9VMErInAq.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 20px;

}

Place in Style Sheet.

Thanks, but sadly, no thanks. It only works as a hover.

Not sure what you mean, it works fine on my dev forum.  I made some tweaks to the dialog button, as I forget about that button.

#btn-add-reaction, .controls a.button[data-reaction] {

background-image: url(http://storage.proboards.com/6199338/i/cMdz93gk9RF9VMErInAq.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 20px;
background-position: center center;

}

#btn-add-reaction {

height: 27px;
width: 30px;

}

Thank you. I'm still having the same problem. If you have a chance here is a link to a public place on my site. I believe that you are able to use the plugin as a guest... Sometimes.... If there is a better way to do this, I would love to know. You can have free reign over my site if that would be of interest to you.

If you don't have time, I understand.

Thank you.

BilliTheCat,

Plugin doesn't work for guests, so I won't be able to see anything.

I don't understand what the problem is. Can you try to explain again, maybe provide a screen shot if that helps. I would guess it's an issue with your theme, as everything works fine with the vanilla theme.
