Question Emoticons

I have uploaded new emoticons, but they do not show up in my drop-down list in the back-end. Can anyone help me with this issue? Greatly appreciated!

Read this brilliant Chapter of upcoming Kunena Documentation from Johnnydement.

Thanks for the reply Lintzy. The documentation is good, but my issue is that the images I have uploaded to the language/smilies folder do not show in the pick-list for the URL field. Any additional ideas to get these files to show in the list is appreciated!

cite from chapter:

"URL: On this dropdown list we will be able to select one of the images inside the 'root/components/com_kunena/template/default_ex/images/language/emoticons/' folder (will differ when using different templates). We cannot select this folder, Kunena decides which smileys to show based on the language we decided on logging in joomla. Notice this does not affect in anyway the associations, but if there's a smiley that is only available on a language image folder, the rest of the language will share the association but with an empty smiley, this will affect on posts, as it will not shown the text string (ej.: :yuck:) nor any image. For this we recommend if you use localized smileys in a Multilanguage forum, to have a version of each smiley in each of the language folders."

Thanks again Lintzy. They have been loaded into the proper folder, but still do not appear.

The file permissions for the folder images has to be set to 755. Did you check this?

This is my folder, where i have to put the smileys into:
components/com_kunena/template/default_ex/images/german/emoticons

using template default_ex, the language of my Joomla used is german.
And this folder is shown in backend for smileys. If this is empty, no pic is shown in dropdown-list.

And i have to correct: images/german/emoticons <- must have file permission 755
