Hi, smileys not working properly Eg typing ": )" - without the space, or clicking on the button for a certain smiley means that are put in text but as a blank image.
Not moved them and they are in default smiley folder in images...
thanks a lot
your forum is looking for
gif smilie images but
MyBB 1.8.x uses
png type smilies
you can try running below SQL query to fix it
UPDATE `mybb_smilies` SET `image`= REPLACE (`image`, '.gif', '.png') WHERE `image` LIKE '%.gif%';

So I can either change the file format to gifs.... or run that sql
I went to smilies db and ran that but I get an error saying sql syntax error.....
What now?
So how to fix?
And what is the error that you are receiving?

Error is "
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'UPDATE mybb_smilies SET image= REPLACE (image, '.gif', '.png') WHERE `ima' at line 2
"
- Running the command someone suggested above.
Hi,
Can you check if the permission of your images folder is correct ?
Also try to add a gif smiley and see if that is working on your forum.
EDIT: SOLVED!!!!!!!!!!! -----------
I noticed the actual files were ".gif" - So I changed extension to ".png" and it works...
