Adding Emoji snag.

endorphin

dtuxcomp I've managed to reproduce something similar! If you have 15 lines of post and then try and insert an emoji you'll see that the emoji selection popout has been displaced down the editor box so only the top line is visible:

now if you have 16 or more lines of text the emoji selection popup is displaced so that it cannot be seen at all:

but I'm not sure why this stops just typing in the colon followed by the emoji name from working!? 😮

endorphin Wow !! That's dedication, I got as far as it's multiple lines I wouldn't have thought to work out how many, nice job mate 🙂

Odd, like you say you'd expect it to still use the input from the popup box even if it's not onscreen 🤔

cal4231 So about 15 lines seems to be the tipping point then, I suppose that would depend on screen size, resolution etc.

cal4231

dtuxcomp yes but if on a pc can work around it by expandiing the reply box or by using one at the top of post cut and paste hwere you want it.

not ideal but gets around it a little though if that had been my phone hahaha probably line 5 😆
(it isn’t a smartphone)

hmmm I’m going to try an edit to above post and try writing them out see what happens just writing them not clicking them like normal

cal4231

@dtuxcomp I don't believe that going back an typed all of the new ones and they now work 😆

just when you think you have it sussed 😆 🤣

dtuxcomp

cal4231 Can't make this stuff up can you 🙂

Think that warrants this emoji 🙂 🤣

🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♀️ ⬅️

cal4231

dtuxcomp the funniest thing about it is they were typed entered with just the standard little reply box sure I expanded just to check a few but didn't hit enter until was just small reply box 😕 and 😖

endorphin

I'm sure @mrjeeves or @ianmorland will suss this one out! 😉

mrjeeves

endorphin

Hahaha probably Ian on this one.

Dark mode and general forum theme fixes are more my sort of thing at the moment 😛

dtuxcomp

mrjeeves and a wonderful job you do of them mate 🙂

This is going to be one of those really sneaky gremlins isn't it 🙂

mrjeeves

dtuxcomp

As its emoji related, it'll either be down to Flarum's Markdown extension or the Emoji one, most likely.

dtuxcomp

mrjeeves Way beyond my understanding of it sadly 🙂

dtuxcomp mrjeeves Way beyond my understanding of it sadly

same here straight over my head for coding heck I struggled to find out how to wrap links on here 😆

anyway reason for further post just made another very long post so at the bottom tried an experiment and wrote the emoji out and it does work that way but you need to hit enter or else it won't show as an emoji 😄

dtuxcomp

cal4231 you need to hit enter or else it won't show as an emoji 😄

Huh, interesting, I'll have to try that 🙂

I understand coding to a point, but once it starts to get complex I'm just guessing 🙂 I am quite good at breaking things though so that comes in handy 😉 🙂

I'd not used MARKDOWN before the new platform so had to do a quick dive into that, luckily it's similar to HTML which I've used to write websites, so of course I volunteered to write a companion guide to this one on MARKDOWN, which I've still got to work through and refresh when I remember 🙂
