WikiSmileys

Note: The recipes here are for PmWiki versions 0.6 and 1.0 only. For PmWiki 2.0 recipes, see Cookbook.


Goal

Add graphical smileys to the wiki markup.

Solution

Attach:smileys.zip - complete zip archive including gif images
Attach:smileys.php - PHP code

Discussion

WikiSmileys allow graphical smileys to be inserted into documents. Markups such as :-) are converted to graphical images like :-). The complete set of defined smileys are:

Enter markupto display this smiley
:) or :-) or {:) or {:-):-)
;) or ;-) or {;) or {;-){;)
:( or :-( or {:( or {:-({:(
:p or :-p or {:p or {:-p{:p
:o or :-o or {:o or {:-o{:o
:D or :-D or {:D or {:-D{:D
{cool}{cool}
{confused}{confused}
{eek}{eek}
{angry}{angry}
{rolleyes}{rolleyes}

Installation

Unpack the Attach:smileys.zip file into your pmwiki directory. The smiles.php file should go in your local/ directory and the smiley images should go into pub/smileys. Then add the line

   include_once("local/smileys.php");

to your local/config.php file. That should do it for most installations. If you end up with broken images in the output instead of smileys, you may need to set the value of $SmileysFolder to be the URL prefix to where the smileys images are located.

Comments, Bugs

It should probably be pointed out that if one types the markup for some of the above smileys in the beginning of a row, they won't show up.
