Apparently I am just not grasping something with the Smiley Module. I figured that when I enter in my Blog, that it would automatically convert my :) into the png graphic that came with the module... and I also hoped it would do that with all of my Blog entries from before I installed the module. At this point, it hasn’t done it anywhere in my site.

• I am using the "Interlaced" theme
• Drupal 4.6.3 & downloaded the Smiley Module yesterday
• I installed the smiley module
• Uploaded the included mysql file from the module into my database
• Uploaded the "Example" smiley png’s into the /misc/smileys/ folder to match what the admin was pointing towards for the smileys.
• In Access Control, "Administer Smileys" is checked for "Admin"
• In Blocks, it is checked for "Smiley on submission pages"
• In Input Formats it then shows Smileys under that… in the LIST it shows all of the smiley images, which showed up after I copied the "Example" images to the misc/smileys/ folder.
• In Menus, Smiley is in here with a disable link, so it’s enabled… when I click the "config" link for Smiley, I see the Path as "admin/filters/smileys" & the Parent Item as "Input Formats"
• In Modules, Smileys is checked as well.
• I have not set up any Filters before, so maybe I’m doing something wrong with how I expect this filter to work?

So I don’t know if I’m just using the module wrong? Is there supposed to be a WYSIWYG editor showing all of the smileys grouped for me to pick from as I’m creating a new node or Blog entry?

I figured that just as I type a new entry & use the :) that it would input the image of the smiley in place of the ASCII text. Should these show up when I "Preview" my entries or not until I "Submit" them?

Any help or guidance would be appreciated.
