Import/Export of Smilies:

The smilies for BuddyPress activities are only shown when the page is reloaded. Is this a bug?

No, BuddyPress uses local ajax to add new activities to your timeline. Therefore the earliest time the Smilies can be loaded is when the page is loaded from the server again.

I can’t see the smilies in the notices shown in the sidebar of BuddyPress. What’s wrong?

Nothing, the current version of BuddyPress does not offer a filter to show the smilies in there. But there is a workaround editing one line of bb-messages-template.php, change line 546 to
message) )) ?>
or use the Activity-Stream-Widget for BuddyPress, which is supported by wp-monalisa

wp-monalisa does not work with comments. What now?

Please, check and double check that the id given in the admin dialog of wp-monalisa is the correct id of the comment form textare. This can usually happen if you changed your theme.

My smilies are gone? What’s wrong?

Plase check and double check the path to your smiley directory.
