Now available for threaded commenting system too!



How To Add Kolobok Smileys In Blogger Comments

Step 1. Go to Dashboard - Template - Edit HTML - Proceed


 Step 2. Expand Widget Template (make a backup)

Step 3. Search (CTRL + F) for this tag:

</body>

Step 4. Copy and paste just above it, this code:

• For previous commenting system (comments without reply option)

<!--kolobok-smileys-->
<script src='http://helplogger.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/[helplogger.blogspot.com]smileys.js' type='text/javascript'/><noscript><a href='http://helplogger.blogspot.com/2012/04/how-to-add-emoticonssmileys-in-blogger.html' target='_blank'><span style='font-size: x-small;'>Add emoticons</span></a></noscript>
<!--kolobok-smileys-->

• For threaded commenting system (comments with reply option)

<script src='https://helplogger.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/kolobok threaded.js' type='text/javascript'/>

Note: ignore steps 5-8 if you are using threaded comments!

Step 5. Now find this code snippet:

<b:loop values='data:post.comments' var='comment'>

Step 6. Paste the following code just above it:

<div id='smileys'>

Step 7. Find the following code (look carefully, it should be somewhere below the code from step 5)

</b:loop>

Step 8. Paste the following tag just after it:

</div>

Step 9. Now find this code:

• For previous commenting system:

<data:blogTeamBlogMessage/>

Note: if you'll find it like 4 times, stop to the 2nd one!

• For threaded commenting system:

<div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'>

Step 10. And add this code just after it:

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'><script type='text/javascript'>
//<![CDATA[

    document.getElementById('smiley-more').style.display = 'inline';

Note: Ignore steps 11-12 if you are using threaded comments!

Step 11. Finally, find this code

]]></b:skin>

.emoticons {-moz-background-clip: -moz-initial;-moz-background-origin: -moz-initial;-moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;text-align: left;width:400px;}
.emoticons a, .emoticons a:hover {margin-left: 20px;text-decoration:none;}

Note: if you want to change the size of the emoticon container, edit the red code.

Step 13. Save the Template and you're done. Enjoy!
