Description
Tango Smileys Extended (TSE) disables the built-in WordPress smileys and extends the number of available smileys from 18 to 202. The extended smileys can be input using standard emoticon shorthand, or through the CTI (Click to Insert) interface introduced in TSE 2.0.0b. Smileys in comments is also supported, and may be inserted using the standard emoticon shorthand or through the CTI interface introduced in TSE 2.0.1b. MCEComments is now supported as of TSE 2.5.2.0.
Installation
Installation of TSE is easy. Simply follow these directions:
- Upload
tango-smileys-extendedto the
/wp-content/plugins/directory. - Activate the plugin through the
Pluginsmenu in WordPress. - If this is your first installation of TSE, you may enable TSE on the TSE admin page at Settings » Tango Smileys Extended. If you are upgrading, TSE retains its settings from the previous installation. You may change the options on the TSE admin page at Settings » Tango Smileys Extended.
- The comment CTI interface is not supported by some themes, but standard emoticon shorthand will still work. See the FAQs for information on adding support for CTI to your theme. Comment CTI may be disabled on the TSE Options page.

Whesley,first of all,thanks for this plugin!
It’s all workin fine but i would like to know how to fix a little problem.
The thing is: when i add smilies they are not aligned with the text (like on your page) and they look as if they were in the “upper row”.Could you,please,tell me what (and where) to change.
Thanks in advance!
B.
I like this plugin…
Thanks for all, I’ll use it for my blog.
http://hadselvgs.com/martin The smileys doesen’t seem to work on my site! I still see the standard WP-smileys : /
WP smileys may not have been disabled when TSE was activated. Open the TSE settings page and make sure the box for WP smileys is unchecked and hit save. Even if the box is unchecked, hit save to update WordPress.
Cool plugin , am using it for 2 months now without problems… What is new in the update?
You can view the changelog here.
When I click On the smile, there is no any thing written or shown in the comments

My appologies. I did not see this comment before.
I assume this is your thread in the support forum:
http://support.slightofmind.net/topic/tango-smileys-extended-doesnt-work
All future responses will be available in that thread.
Sorry, I didn’t see there was a forum!
Hey! Really cool plugin, but it doesn’t work on my site! I dont know why! Could you help me?
My site is: http://www.amazingphotoshop.nl (it’s dutch but I dont think that should be a problem for you)
What isn’t working for you?
Well when I click on a smiley, it doesn’t insert is into the text area!
Is this for comments or for the post / page editor?
For the comments!
If you are using Internet Explorer, that is a known bug that I am working on. As far as I can see, it is working with Firefox, Google Chrome, and Safari. Try using another browser, as I think this will resolve the issue.
Well, I am using Chrome, so that shouldn’t be the problem! What else can it be?
I am using MCEcomments, but that is turned on!
I can see the script for MCEComments being called, but I don’t see it actually working on the textarea. Do you see the bold and italic buttons, and the other buttons that come with using MCEComments?
Yes I do see that!
But now I am logged out, I don’t see it anymore
It looks like you found a bug in MCEComments, because I don’t see it either. Or perhaps there is a setting that prevents users who are not logged in from using the advanced features of MCEComments. I’m not very familiar with the plugin, so I am not aware of such a setting.
Yes, but I’m not happy I found it! Now I can’t use both plugins
. Well Then I choose for your plugin!
I’m sorry that you had an issue, and if you have any other issues with Tango Smileys Extended, I’ll be more than happy to help!
I just activated MCEComments and I have the same problem, where MCEComments only works for registered users, so I’m fairly certain that it is a bug within MCEComments.
The only advice I can offer is to pick which plugin you want the most and deactivate the other.
I’m sorry I couldn’t be of more help
I have updated Tango Smileys Extended to version 2.6.4.1 to fix the issue with smileys not working with MCEComments.
Hello!
I have installed the smileys using
But it is just not clickable from the commentform. I mean when I click nothing on a smiley, nothing happens
<EDITED BY ADMIN>
It looks like you’re using MCEComments, but you do not have that option enabled in the Tango Smileys Extended settings.
To enable smileys for MCEComments, go to the Tango Smileys Extended admin page at Settings » Tango Smileys Extended and make sure MCEComments is checked under the Enable CTI in: header and then click Update Options. Even if it is already checked, click the Update Options button.
I checked, deleted the manual line from my comments.php. Still nothing. I can’t understand why…Can you tell me how and what line do I need to insert in the comments.php to make it work? I really liked your set.
Were you using the manual function
to add the smileys to your comment form? If so, then that was the problem. The manual function is to add compatibility with some themes and plugins that change the way commenting works.
If your comments.php has the line
then TSE will work automatically.
I turned off mcecomments and everything worked!strange…
any opinions?
If your comments.php file contains
which it would appear that is what is working right now, then try reactivating the MCEComments plugin and re-checking the MCEComments option for TSE.
thank u thank u thank u
You have made my day
You’re welcome
Hi, there is a border and ugly space arround the smiles in my comments.
I have tried adding to style.css
mg.wp-smiley {
border:0;
}
img.wp-smiley {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
But both did not work.
I then removed borders from .article img, img.article
but it also removes border arround blog post images and they
look worst . How do i fix (remove) the smile border but still have border arround images…if possible i would also like to know how to fix their possition to bottom of the text line?
Here is my style.css
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DK8ZH7QZ
Otherwise the plugin is working well
Please help me if u have the time
I gave the Tango smileys their own class so they could be styled without affecting anything else. To remove the borders, change the spacing, and vertical align the smileys, you can use the following CSS definition:
border: 0px !important;
margin: 0px !important;
padding: 0px !important;
vertical-align: text-bottom !important;
}
I recommend leaving the !important declaration so it can override any styles that target img elements.
If you need to increase the spacing between the smileys and the text, you should change the padding and not the margin. Also, if text-bottom is not where you want the smileys, you can try bottom or baseline.
