Missing Short Names

[tjquillan]

Some short names such as the ones listed below do not work when passed to joypixels.shortnameToImage()

• :cowboy_hat_face:
• :frowning_face:
• :fist_oncoming:
• :fist_oncoming:
• :fist_left:
• :fist_right:
• and more...

I am having the same issue. how did you manage to solve this issue?

[tjquillan]

I didn't. What I do now, in my case, is translate the emoji to its' short name using joypixels.toShort() and then later use those names it provides on joypixels.shortnameToImage().

My solution is to store emoji's unicode, then later, for display, I use HTML entity with that code. For example: &x1f617;

:slightly_smiling_face: is gone too, :cry: still exist :cry:

I'm using shortnameToUnicode() method.

Last version ok: 5.0.5 First version nok: 5.5.0

:slight_smile: which looks like an alias is ok

Yes also have this issue, :clown:translates to Unicode but :clown_face:does not. :clown_face:is an alternative short for :clown:, somehow it does not get the alternatives.

Found a fix problem, went back to version 5 and now it works.

in client.php I copied public function shortnameToUnicodeCallback($m) from v5 to v6.6

And now :clown_face: works in v6.6
