When I click the emoji button in the text editor area, I don't see the emojis. Only a very few emojis are visible, and they are the ones that appear in the picture. Image below:

I've confirmed this both here on discuss and on my own dev forum (both are running the latest nightly Flarum build.

Thanks for flagging this up, we'll investigate ASAP!

    IanM I was relieved to hear this. However, I will not be able to update due to the special codes added. What is the way to take advantage of your fix without a kernel update?

        Umutcan for here on discuss, we will simply update the forum once a fix is ready.

        Are you also seeing this problem on your own forum?

            I think this is known from earlier versions. The emoji library changed the sorting and that's why non-emoji emoji's are showing first. We could look into resorting the mapping.

            IanM The screenshot is from my forum. The same problem exists in my forum.

              This change happened in Flarum release 1.3.0 when we updated simple-emoji-map library from 0.4 to 0.5 which added new emojis to the list including at the very beginning of the list. The emoji picker doesn't have special logic, it always shows the emojis in the original order from the list filtered by the keyword. When no keyword is entered it just results in the beginning of the full list being shown. It just so happened it started with the faces category and the first few of that category happened to be commonly used emojis. Though I remember that selection also contained a few very similar emojis because of that fact.

              I would be in favor to switching to a custom curated list of emojis when no keyword is entered. If we expose that list through an extendable javascript method or forum attribute this would even give an easy opportunity for extensions to change it if needed.

                It would be perfect if we could replace them with popular (laughing, crying, angry, heart) emojis. Number emojis are pretty useless.

                  Greetings dear flarum developers,
                  The problem in this topic still continues today. I can give my own community as an example. Can you offer any solution to this issue?

                    huseyinfiliz Thank you, yes I already knew that Clark had such an extension, but I think this bug in the kernel will definitely come to the fore again. Whether it would be right to call it a bug is debatable, of course.
