The myth that there where no prophets after Jesus is popular but not one that Jesus Himself preached.
The Apostle John wrote the book of Revelation long after Jesus had ascended into heaven - you can't call an audible for John and still assert that there where no prophets after Jesus.
None the less, Smith was hardly a prophet. He fits the Biblical description of a false prophet to a T. Including defying the Biblical order that no man can add to the Lord's word after John's Revelation.
Revelation 22:18
For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book.
