ellatrix / new-smileys Goto Github PK

I tried the plugin on a site running bbPress. Smileys were replaced as expected in normal WordPress posts, pages, and comments. But in bbPress posts it left a broken image.

Looking at the markup in a bbPress post without the plugin, smilies appear something like this:
<img src="https://example.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley">

With the plugin active, in a bbPress post the beginning of the file name and the file extension is removed. Everything else stays the same:
<img src="https://example.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley">

In the rest of WordPress, the plugin replaces the smiley with the new markup:
<span class="wp-smiley emoji emoji-smile" title=":)">:)</span>

Martini: >-| doesn't work at all because of > (pull req submitted)

Heart: If you START a line with <3 it won't display (probably because of the leading < ) but even if you make it a caret and not the html entity, it's not translating.

Blush: Using ’ doesn't seem to work, though if you make the code '^^‘' => 'blush', it will...

Something's weird about how it's pulling in entities and parsing them. We may need Joen's brilliance, or someone to share :)

If you end a sentence by a dot . and you put a smilie code, then it doesn't display.

eg: You look buggy. :?

but this works:

You look buggy :?

I feel like I'm missing something obvious here but I downloaded the contents of the master branch in a zip and unzipped that to wp-content/plugins/new-smileys/ but it won't turn up in the admin panel -> plugins section.

What am I doing wrong?

Is this MIT license ?

My I use these on my website ?

Thanks. Great work :)
