Good evening,
one last question for today 🙂
I tried to integrate custom smileys using a snippet for functions.php that I have found through some research:
add_filter( 'smilies_src', 'my_custom_smilies_src', 10, 3 ); function my_custom_smilies_src( $img_src, $img, $siteurl ) { return get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/smilies/' . $img; }I am not quite sure what “10” and “3” do, but I uploaded 11 smileys into a new folder “smilies” that is now located in the child theme folder on my FTP (which I adjusted in the snippet). Also, I have named the smileys after the standard smileys from “/wp-includes/images/smilies/” including the ending (they actually are .png but my FTP seems to still display them properly in .gif).
For testing purposes, I have entered a comment on my website in a private post but the entered smiley is still the standard one. I tried naming it after both the standard smiling smileys in the folder. Then, I figured that this is not really the smiley I see on my comment, but this one: 🙂
The smiley is not part of my FTP, now I am confused of what and how to use to see my own smileys 🙂
I am looking forward to your reply!
Kind regards,

If the location of the new files coincides with that described in the code, the new smilies should work. 10 & 3 are add_filter() parameters.
Make sure you also clear the cache (both on the site and in your browser).

Please check the available documentation and search the forums before starting a topic.The smileys that I have attempted to replace seem to be the standard Worpress smileys which already were not being used on the website.
It looks to me like the smileys I try to change are your smileys (https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/11/svg/1f642.svg, Cryout Creations)?
My issue is that they are >not< on my FTP to be able to replace the folder with the smileys. So how do I replace them? 🙂
w.org is a WordPress-controlled domain.
The fact that the smilies are loaded from that location may be either because of some form of caching/image optimization functionality (like that provided by Jetpack) or perhaps the WordPress team decided to “optimize” the smilies by loading them off-site.
