Topic: News generator: edited smileys in forum, error on html-output

I just installed a bunch of new smileys in the forum, and they work perfectly there. But when I generate news, the smileys appear as text "smiley.gif".
I've been looking through the code for news-generator, but couldnt find any problem.
Does anyone have an idea what might be wrong?
The new smileys are in the same folder as the default smileys were in.

I fixed this myself. It was just a matter of duplicating the img/smilies folder to the root, since my news-output is on a page in the root, and not /forum/.

I have another question regarding the news generator tho:
Is it possible to allow mod's to generate news? I have a few people helping me maintaining my site, and I want them to be able to generate news. I don't however want them to have full admin-access.

Sure. Just rename the plugin AMP_News_Generator.php (the difference is the M).
