list of emoticons above comment input field

Extra information:

Currently, I’m testing the “Custom Smilies” plugin which allows smilies to be added easily.
If I activate the default WordPress comments on my pages (using the theme Weaver II), I can display all available smilies with the “Custom Smilies” plugin.

For themes not supporting the comment_form action, they say the following line should be added to the comments.php file.

if ( function_exists(cs_print_smilies) ) {cs_print_smilies();}

I’m definitely not a php specialist but when I added this line into the wp-photo-album-plus/theme/wppa-boxes-html.php file all available smilies appear multiple times at the top of the page, while I would like to have the smilies just above or just below the comment input filed.

Could this statement be entered via the Settings menu, “comment related settings”, to allow user defined text to appear above or below the comment?

I will get into this also, but later…

Fixed in 5.1.19. Not released yet. See example: https://beta.opajaap.nl/test-4711/?wppa-album=139&wppa-slide&wppa-occur=1

I just did a test on the beta website and this is what I was looking for.

I assume the username and email address fields are optional but the idea of the comment box with the smilies that can be clicked upon is what I had in mind.
