Some mods I found for the board software

This could be useful to add more smileys to the list:

Open ./admin/sources/classes/editor/composite.phpFind:

$options['smilies'] = $this->fetchEmoticons( 20 );

Adjust that number to something that fits your increased box.

Haven't tested this, so not sure if the row of smilies will continue on a new row or not.

Nice!

Oh, I almost forgot, will have to check if the FTP is finally working or not. Because the "next" and "back" buttons are there on the smiley panel, the images just don't exist. But you can still click at the edges. Forgot about that.

I did not know that. That is very helpful. If there's anything I can do to help make the arrows show up, let me know.

 
No, the image files are not in the right place on the server. Last time I had checked the FTP wasn't really working, which is what we'd need to fix it...not sure if that got resolved or not. Will take a look later today.

 
Just tried to upload it again - still no go. I emailed to admin@huskerboard.com on December 3rd and 4th, but I think there's a problem with my emails getting through to Chad and Joe. Eric, Alex - could one of you email them about the issue? Here is what I emailed them:

Joe, Alex and I were trying to fix a glitch on the Board that requires we copy files from one folder to another. We can download the files, but when we try to upload them to the correct folder, we’re getting a denial based on lack of permissions. Would you please check the public/style_images/qb_test/ folder? We need to create a folder called editor and upload some images to it to fix an issue with the “quick selection” bar for the emoticons. Thanks!

Alex then sent this:

To add to that, chmod can't be performed on this folder (or any of the other directories within style_images). It appears that this is not an issue with the style_images folder itself, or the public folder, and we are able to upload files to either of those as well. But within qb_test and its sister directories, it's like our FTP login is simply not given access to add stuff there.

This one has now been fixed. When you type a post, just hit the smilies icon. You'll see the row of icons below the text field. At the far right will be a small blue arrow. Click it, and the icons will scroll. Once you scroll to the right at least one, you'll get a left scroll arrow as well. My only issue is that the arrows aren't very distinct - not much contrast with the background they are on. Anyone want to take a swipe at some replacements? I'm thinking either red or black - red would probably stand out more. Here they are below.
