Hi,

Any plans to add emoji would be appreciated. I noticed that when I add emoji to a post, it does not show up once posted.

Thanks.

Hi @Nisar-von-Voltenbräackter,

At the moment, we've only got the forum "smilies", which correspond to some basic emoji-like icons. There's a list here (https://www.electronicspoint.com/help/smilies).

The next version of forum software does have full unicode support, which means that Emojis from phones, etc... will then work on the forum :). We will be upgrading at some point, but not imminently as there are still a couple of important features missing from the new software. Maybe close to the end of the year we'll upgrade (just a guess, based on their current development plans).

Well, I really find a lot to admire about the current message board software. Thanks for the link about smilies, too. :rolleyes:
