XOOPS 2.0.10
NewBB 2.0 Version2.02
Right i recently upgraded the forum to the above version.
Everything works great (bit slow on page load mind)but the smiles will not display in the forum for certain groups.
I have these groups=

Site Admin Smile no show
Registered Smile Show
Wombat Smile show
[FPS]Admin Team Smile no show
[FPS]Member Smile no show
[FPS] Guest Smile no show
Now the smile will show the code but not the gifs for the above groups. The shout box gifs show for all accounts.
Ive search high and low here for days and not come up with the answer.
Any ideas were I'm going wrong here?

updated site to 2.0.13.1 and still same problem so must be forum related.

just noticed as well they dont show when u post the smileys in the news page either.
Anyone?

I don't have a direct solution to your problem, but you could try upgrading your forum to CBB?

was thinking of that but the risk factor worries me.
Also there is a problem with them not showing in the news page which leads me to think the problem lies else where.
Shall have read up on the CBB type forums see if there going to be a benefit.
