SimpleSmileyReplace

SimpleSmileyReplace is a plugin that checks for the existence of a images/smilies/ folder in a theme. If that folder exists, WordPress uses the smiley files in that folder instead. The plugin assumes that the smilies have the usual filenames (icon_rolleyes.gif, etc).

It has no extra requirements and has been tested with modified versions of the twentyten through twentyfourteen themes.

Development on this plugin has halted. Other developers should feel free to use the Apache-licensed code for their own projects.

1. Create a folder named /wp-content/themes/[ThemeName]/images/smilies/ and put a complete set of custom smilies in it, with the standard WordPress filenames.
2. Upload the SimpleSmileyReplace folder to your /wp-content/plugins/ folder and activate it.
3. No further configuration is required. The smiley codes and filenames are unaltered, only the location of the files is changed.

What are the standard WordPress filenames?

An up-to-date list of smilies and filenames can be found in /wp-includes/functions.php by searching for the $wpsmiliestrans variable. As of WordPress version 3.5, this is the list (cut-and-pasted):

        ':mrgreen:' => 'icon_mrgreen.gif',
        ':neutral:' => 'icon_neutral.gif',
