Hi,

it would be nice, if I could insert a smiley by doubleclicking on it.

Would there be a chance to intergrate such function?

Nice plugin, thx.

Cool! Only two fixes required in 2.1 or 3.0.

One, the new version should automatically uninstall the previous. I guess it is not hard to implement because so many MSI installers support this.

Two, double clicking an icon should insert that icon to the post. In this way I can save a lot of time.

Red X instead of smileys

ADTC — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 17:22:52 GMT

I continue to have the problem of the Internet Explorer missing picture "red X" icon appearing instead of any and all smileys.

It occurs in both XP and Vista, and it looks like nobody else is having the problem.

I'm suspecting my network to be blocking your plugin from downloading emoticons. I will try in another network and let you know.

Meanwhile, would you tell me if your plugin uses any particular TCP/UDP ports to download the smileys, so that I can open those ports in my router's firewall?

It should be noted that once I select the smiley and insert it in the blog post, I am able to see the actual smiley.

Hi ADTC,

I have no clue of what could be going wrong. In fact, I am not using any other TCP/UDP port to download the smileys.

If you have VS 2005 installed on your box, can you try dropping a PictureBox control and adding a URL to it?? Let me know if that works.

Hi!

I installed your plgu-in and it seems to be working fine, but ad ADTC said I'm having problem with half of Yahoo smileys. They don't load and it shows just an X.

Unfortunately I only get 'ErrorImage's and 'InitialImage's even though (blindly) inserting an image

DOES work :)

Explorer and Firefox display images (e.g. http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/22.gif).

Unfortunately VS2008 displays the InitialImage as well :(

UPDATE> Windows Live Writer plug-ins

I have found that a couple of my plug-ins, namely Social Bookmarking and Smiley Plugin   don’t work

The plug in does not work with either vista (my new OS) OR the new live writer beta wave 3.0 that is out.. I get an error pop up when I try to add a smiley.

Its a good plug in... I would like to have it working on the new live writer...

thanks

Hi Kenny,

Try running WLW as Admin.

not working with latest WLW on windows 7 ... even tried to run as ADMIN too ...

got 2 problems ...

1 ... no SmileyInfo.txt is created automatically ...

2 ... when i create that file manually , what i write in it ?? because if i don't write anything it shows blank field in all ...

WLW is missing only one thing ... smilies .. that you made .. but its very unfortunate that i can't use it with latest version ...

Vista requires you to run WLW as admin the first time around...after that, the smilieinfo.txt is created and you can run as normal.

my screen freezes when I use this!! I don't know how to un install it either, wish I didn't install it, yuck

re: Smiley Plugin 2.0 for Windows Live Writer (WLW)

rahulso — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 04:46:29 GMT

Sorry to hear that Marian. You can uninstall it using Add/Remove programs. Or, just try doing the setup again, and select Remove this time instead of install or repair.

If this doesn't help, mail me with your screenshot at rahulso AT microsoft.com, and I will help you out.

Hope this helps,

Rahul
