Add emoji support

  • Quote

Post by Dolan »

I noticed this forum doesn't support emojis.

I gather it's either because it's an older version of phpBB3 or it's the database you're using that doesn't store Unicode characters from the emoji set.

Here are some suggestions, two libraries that can add emoji support where that is not supplied out of the box:

Cool. Maybe you don't need a library, since that could add some degree of overhead (at least images are loaded on CDNs, so it should be fast).

Maybe it's just a setting in the database. The latest version of phpBB3 supports emojis, as far as I know.
