Problem Adding Smilies

posts: 101

Erg. I've managed to add a number of smilies to my Tiki install without any problems at all. However, for whatever reason, there are a few images that will not display - only their alternate text appears.

To add a smiley, I simply make a gif from the image, name it "icon_*", upload it to img/smiles, and then edit the tiki-smileys.tpl file to include an additional line for the image. This has worked for a lot of other smilies I've done, but not for a small handful of other gif's. Does anyone know why this might be?

Nevermind folks. I discovered that the part of the filename after "icon_" must match the tag for the smiley.

eg.
This works:
Image Name = icon_thumbsup.gif
Tag: (:thumbsup:)

This doesn't work:
Tag: (:tup:)
