[CMS] html code converting into smiley faces

[byalik]

for example part of my html code is below but it is taking such things as and converting it into smiley faces screwing everything up?



<img usemap="#map" src="http://legalhelp.org/speeding-tickets/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/map.png" width="470" height="309" border="0" alt="Map of the United States" name="usimage" style="filterrogidXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='http://d2fhxcx29yssgj.cloudfront.net/maps/usatoday/usa02.png', sizingMethod='scale');">

Point proven from the post above...what is the fix to this

You have three options:

1: Change the "Text to replace" for the smiles to use colons (eg :smile: instead of ) - https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/smilie_modify

2: Use [noparse] <code here> [/noparse] to prevent it from parsing.

3: Just click "Disable smilies in text" at the bottom of the advanced reply box -

Where do you see options for #3? I don't have that option. This is for the CMS, not the forum.

Wow! You're right. It exists when you reply to an article, just not when you create one. How odd.

My apologies. Though, 1 & 2 still apply.

Unfortunately I don't.

Hopefully someone with more experience in CMS will find that.
