Hi Michael, I'm also having some issues with this.
When I first installed and run this, it complained that I'm missing smilies_normal-folder and I added it. Apparently in the right places, cause it quit complaining. Then I noticed the current=smilies_easter changed to current=smilies_normal, so apparently it finds and modifies switchsmilies.txt as well.
Then I tried to change the easter dates so that it would appear, but I can't seem to make anything happen. The stock smilies are shown all the time. Even changed the line to this:
smilies_easter|01/01/04 00:00:00|01/01/05 23:59:59
So the easter should definitely be on, right?
The current=smilies_normal just stays in there and nothing changes...
I do have a smilies_easter in the same dir as smilies_normal and both have different smilies (with same filenames). I believe I have chmodded everything like the modfile says. And it doesn't even change the current in the switchsmileys.txt anyway, which it can modify, cause it already did.
Any ideas...?
