Setting smilie alignment in posts
by
25 Apr 2002
Something that had been bugging me for a while now was the fact that VBulletin didn't declare an alignment option for the "img src" tags used for smilies inserted into posts. Why did this bug me? Because some smilies cause the paragraph line spacing in a post to be fairly skewed, especially if the smilie is larger than 15x15 pixels. I tend to think that it looks better if the alignment is set to "absmiddle" in the IMG tag. To change the default behavior, you need only edit one file and make one change. Open the functions.php file in your VBulletin admin directory and do the following... find this in the admin\functions.php file PHP Code:
$bbcode=str_replace(trim($smilie[smilietext]),"<img src=\"$smilie[smiliepath]\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\">",$bbcode);
PHP Code:
$bbcode=str_replace(trim($smilie[smilietext]),"<img src=\"$smilie[smiliepath]\" border=\"0\" align=\"absmiddle\" alt=\"\">",$bbcode);
Note the addition of the align=\"absmiddle\" in the img src tag. This will force the smilie to be aligned so that it's center is equal to the center of the line of text that surrounds it. You could change the alignment value to any of the other viable HTML 4.0 options for the "img" tag.
