Well, users of my site are emoji lovers so had to find this workaround.

So it's basically using the emoji Dec (decimal) codes and then enclosing it with &# and ; and it works.

For example,

😈 shows the Evil Grin face 😈

or using 😍 shows the Smiling face with heart eyes and so on 😍😍 It's working on the comments sections too.

I've told my users to use the codes for now 😁 but I'm sure you programmers/experts will know of a better workaround.

The decimal codes for smileys are available here on W3Schools and here too < thanks @xyzzy

Well, users of my site are emoji lovers so had to find this workaround. So it's basically using the emoji **Dec** (decimal) codes and then enclosing it with ```&#``` and ```;``` and it works. For example, ```&#128520;``` shows the Evil Grin face &#128520; or using ```&#128525;``` shows the Smiling face with heart eyes and so on &#128525;&#128525; It's working on the comments sections too. I've told my users to use the codes for now &#128513; but I'm sure you programmers/experts will know of a better workaround.

Thanks for that link. That was overwhelming for the eyes.

Now if only someone could share how to add a button for that list on the comments or post toolbar 😁
