Emoticons... Please add this little feature..

[Graeme S.]

Very simple really, I just want to be able to make it so that several strings can make the same emoticon appear. Right now, I can only set one string. E.g.

:)

:) I want to be able to set several different things for that smiley without having to upload it a dozen times. E.g.

:-) :)

I have wanted this feature for a long time.

FWIW, you can already do this by uploading the image a second time (with a different filename) and "adding" it in the ACP with the new code. Not exactly the clearest method, but it's a workable solution presently.

I do it that way already.

"...without having to upload it a dozen times."

Brandon, as Amy said, I do it that way as well :), but I could have sworn that in 2.3 (or maybe it was vb forums I frequented) where you could set multiple strings rather than having to upload several.

I may be wrong, but it doesn't seem that hard to implement a system whereby one emoticon can have several triggers.

Also, I noticed that I CANNOT edit the triggers for imported emoticon sets.

Yes you can, you just edit them in the master pack. Imported emoticon sets ONLY control which images display. To edit triggers, specify which are clickable, etc. you update your master pack.

Ah right. It's a bit confusing, but I see.

Anyway, I suppose the point of this topic was to suggest adding the ability to create multiple triggers for an emoticon.

It doesn't need to be a priority, but it would be really nice if you could note it down for the future ;).
