Yes- the smiley module is doing that- see this screenshot...

Oh, I see it originates in the smiley Module, not the chat module-
see this smiley module screenshot:

Happens only when i name a categ. with say two words, or use a / or a period in my cat name. A simple one word category name like "smiles" does not get changed or twinned by jrChat.

Brian I cannot 'change' the category, aside from adding/deleting smileys from it. It's JR that is changing the cat name to the hyphened version (understandably)- but the menu options when choosing a smiley in an actual chat post show both my name cat and the same cat but with the JR hyphenated name. Should maybe show only the JR hyphen version of categ. to choose. see above screenshot.

When I create a category simply named: other ....it doesn't change my cat. name and do the twin thing, and there's no problem.
YES, just now when I removed all smileys from a category, the category deisappeared as you said it should. So I can rid myself now of the twinned cat.'s . But, you might still want to look into tweaking something to avoid creating a twin if the chosen cat. name doesn't meet the approved criteria. Otherwise it's going to happen often for people using it.

I think I see how this is occurring-
When I make a category and call it for example: food/party
The smiley module changes that to: food-party and shows BOTH and of course both versions of the category have identical smileys in them..

It did the same when I named a category: misc.
-it created a twin category named: misc (without the period) and shows both.

Ok thanks Brian!- I'll try again removing all smileys from one category that was 'twinned', then creating it anew once it's (hopefully) gone. Will post back here after trying that (though I did try that once, but perhaps I missed one.

Hi Douglas-
Nope, did not fix it. It shows up the same way on both Chrome and Firefox.

Update- I applied the new sorting/categories in jrSmiley & jrChat- thanks for developing this- it REALLY helps when you have lots of smileys!!

The categories are each displaying perfectly when in use in the text editor on the site/posting etc. The smiley categories display fine in jrChat as well, BUT- for some reason when going to choose a CHAT smiley while in chat, 'some' of the categories were duplicated and contain the exact identical set of smileys as their 'twin' category. Other categories remain un-duplicated (which is how they should be), and I can't figure out what if anything i did to make that duplicate happen- didn't think I was doing anything unusual when creating or loading the categories.
This is on my whistle site (non-live, which is the site I have jrChat installed on...both my sites have same admin login info)

The things is, I figured I'd try deleting one or both of one set of twin categ's, so I emptied all the smileys from that pair of cat's into the Default cat., planning to then delete both instances of the category and create it again fresh...but I can't find how to DELETE a category once it's been created either- even when it's emptied out...?

p.s. did integ check cache etc. but that didn't do anything.

Thanks Michael, it's all working great now on both my sites, and I'll do a little reading about 'debug' in the next few days. Maybe some of that info will stick in my head- you never know!
