standard emojis?

[mnementh]

It appears support for some of the standard emojis that were working has gone south for some reason, but the built-in Smilies still work...

Which "standard" ones no longer work? I haven't made any changes lately. Below are all the supported codes, with variations, that are listed in the Smilies configuration.

That is what mnementh said, all the built-in ones are still working, but support for others that are not built-in but are considered "standard" which used to work now no longer do. The built-in ones are somewhat restrictive in their selection and could do with being expanded.

Nah. We've moved on since ancient Egyptian writing

Example: what should I infer when I see or ? Easy if you look at the text representation, very subjective if you look at the hieroglyphs/pictograms.

But then I also hate skeuomorphic interfaces, not least because they obscure meaning and allowed interactions.

Do you mean other emoji's worked here? That's how I read mnem's OP. If the issue is that we don't have emojis that other forums have, that's true. I'll be adding some emoji packs to address that.

Also, there are some emojis that I've wanted, even on other forums. Now, I can make them

No need to be blue with envy; all you have to do is write "blue with envy".

[mnementh]

Oooo-kaaaaaay... Now the standard Unicode smilies are working again...

Whatd'ja do, Bitseeker? Have to fix something phpBB "updated for our own good"...?

No, it was the Standard Unicode Smilies I was talking aboot; they're working again. Well, at least most of them are, same as before.

Would be nice to get some of the Kolobok packs in here, tho...

Lick my frog.

you know you want to.

Yeah, I don't know what happened, but I did find the definitions of the emoji tags that phpBB auto-converts to pull images from twemoji.maxcdn.com. So, maybe there was a glitch with that CDN source.

Anyway, I dumped out the list, converted into a phpBB table, et voilà, the parser couldn't handle it. wah! wah! waaaah!

So, I've attached a list of the emoji codes.

Yes, we'll just keep this in here; no need to pollute the rest of the forum with this messy little test.

The only one it baulked on was the pound symbol here.

Worth having a bitch about this.

Unicode defines emojis properly. Only Apple and Google implement the fucking things properly. Microsoft do a half arsed job of it and only on Windows 10 or greater with some fucked up mutant ones.

The ones that aren't unicode are almost all abhorrent turds.
