Disabling Smilies

Hi,

I just installed AGB 2.3.1 on my site (through yahoo.geocities advanced tools). That's great, thanks for those creating this.

I don't like those smilies, so I checked the option to disable them on administraiton page, but they still exist in the entry form. It also says smilies closed on the form, but they are still there, smiling at me

Can you help me?

note: I know basics of html, son I diasble some form entries, etc on the php files, but the code including these smilies seemed confusing to me.

The smilies on the form are written in to th eHTML. You need to open templates/form.php and remove the HTML that creates the smiley table.

I noticed that, but that part seemed a little beyond my experience on html.
Anyway, I'll try that.

On other related topics it seemed to me that upgrading to 2.3.4 will also solve this problem. But upgrading will require more work it seems.

A question, why does advanced tools in geocities install ver. 2.3.1?

Because Geocities being owned by Yahoo are always slow to do anything. the smiley HTML is
