Completely disable smilies in the full editor

I've removed Enable smilies by default in the Edit posting defaults
I've clicked "Disable smilies" in the editor options
But I still see that visual animated garbage of a Smilies section to the right of the editor box
It shows "Smilies are ON", but I don't understand where to turn those off

How do I completely disable that as well?

Thank you!

Not sure. You might have to block that in your browser via a suitable plugin.

You can use a browser extension that allows you to add user css, like Stylus (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylus/clngdbkpkpeebahjckkjfobafhncgmne)

Then add

Code: Select all

    #smiley-box {
        display: none
    }
What's wrong with smileys? :p

Thanks, that's what I've ended up doing via Ublock origin's style filters, but still lose the area in the editor, it's just blank, so thought there could be some native solution (I think I saw on some other phpBB forum a similar option, but not sure)

Unfortunately, the ublock type of solution doesn't work on some popular smartphones that have no extension functionality :(

You can use ublock origin with Firefox Mobile. Works great, just tested it.
