Anna C Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Sorry, I'm probably being utterly dense, but I know that when I first started posting on the forums, I could use emoticons/smileys. Now they've either gone, or else I have forgotten how to access them. The "enable emoticons" box is still checked - can anyone enlighten me? Thanks! :-). (See?!)

Ian Macmillan Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Looks like they can be used via the Reply system! Beyond that, I haven't looked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 They're showing up for me, either if I start a topic or reply to one: nearly in the middle of the top line of options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna C Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 I thought it was because I'm using my iPad....will have a look on the "real" computer later and see...thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna C Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 ....I've just realised I'm not seeing a toolbar, hence can't click on emoticons on said toolbar! Any ideas how to get it back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Macmillan Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 The Toolbar only appears after selecting "New Topic" or "Reply to this topic." Ot at least that's what happens here. And I've just realised there's a "Collapse Toolbar" arrowhead above the text panel, to the right. If it's pointing to the Left on your screen, you will not see the Toolbar till you press to expand.

Anna C Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 No, I never get the toolbar any more, nor can I even see any option to re-expand the toolbar in case I've accidentally collapsed it. It was there originally as I think I used emoticons in about my third post, but I'm stumped! :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_New Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 There is a tiny arrow on the top right of the reply box screen that expands the toolbar - that works for me on a mac, anyway Jacky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna C Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 Thanks everyone. Having logged in from my laptop, I've discovered that it seems to be a simple matter of ipad incompatibility - I can post, edit etc. using the ipad but the tools, emoticons etc. simply aren't available.
