[UW] Smileys Bar

Smileys Bar for text editor allows faster, easier access to smileys without covering the text area.

Smileys Bar completely rearranges the default XF smileys functionality. The main purpose of this add-on is to add to the bottom of the text editor a bar with the most common, most used smileys that are always visible so you have easy and convenient access to them without covering the text area.

We took the extra mile to make this add-on work great for custom smileys. You can set a specific size and spacing for each of your custom smileys category. Sample on a dark theme:

A magnifier button on the right side of the Smileys Bar, when selected (in blue colour), will insert xF stock emojis into the text editor in max size, and that is 64px. You can have smaller size, if you want, it is admin configurable. And it has also user group permission so you can allow this only for a user group of your choice.
