Description Linus Östberg 2009-01-30 01:56:06 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Slackware Packages

The emoticons are exported to the persons you are chatting with when set not to be shown at all. This has led to a lot of comments from my friends about weird smileys, while I didn't know there were any smileys at all.

Only tested with WLM.

This could explain why I'm seeing emoticons from a friend although we both have turned off emoticons (untick "use the following emoticon theme" in chat window->emoticons - is there any other way to turn them off?). The only solution to this seems to be to turn on "disable user-defined rich text" and then smileys are replaced with an empty string. I want smileys, but NOT graphical ones. This is a bad bug and needs to be fixed.

I get the same bug with slackware-current (kde-4.2.1) and Ubuntu 8.10 (kde-neon)
Comment 3 Raphael Geissert 2009-05-14 04:49:22 UTC
Culprit code is:

wlmchatsession.cpp
> // stolen from msn plugin
> const QHash<QString, QStringList> emap = Kopete::Emoticons::self()->theme().emoticonsMap();

it should use Kopete::Emoticons::tokenize instead (or at worst/least check Kopete::AppearanceSettings::self()->useEmoticons())

Hi there, sorry for the bad news, but WLM has been discontinued by Microsoft, so this bug will be closed.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!
