Emoji Picker

clarkwinkelmann

I think emojioneArea has a setting for an alternate CDN url, but the extension doesn't make it customizable. I also know there's some things that are hard-coded, because when I tried to make the extension use the same CDN that Flarum was using, there were still some stylesheets being loaded from another CDN.

I won't be making any change to this extension unless it's commissioned.

Why not make the emoticon file local?

samtto It's not made local by default probably because these files takes several GB of space on the server (because you have to store every single Emoji possible in case it gets used) not every Flarum admin is going to want to use all of that extra space just to have local emoji, also generally speaking it's better to serve things like emoji via a CDN because it's very possible that the emoji is already cached by the browser if you visited another site that used them.

As far as localizing the emoji for your use case it would require a number of modifications to this extension and the flarum-emoji extension. You would also then need to download the emoji images from the Twemoji Github to a local path.

tankerkiller125 All right, thanks!

All this extension does is embed the EmojioneArea library (the picker) into Flarum. We are limited to the feature they offer.

For any additional emoji feature a new and more advanced extension would have to be created.

I have tried install this extension via BAZAR but after installing I have got this error:
and the flarum is not accessible !

This page isn’t working64.227.80.250 is currently unable to handle this request.
HTTP ERROR 500

clarkwinkelmann

hamedkouhfallah did you get up to the point of enabling the extension ?

If you didn't get that far, it's most likely a Bazaar issue unrelated to this extension.

You can check your webserver logs to find what the 500 error really is.

Released version 0.2.1 which fixes a white pixel above the "post reply" button, which is particularly noticeable in dark mode.

Littlegolden I released a fix for the white pixel clarkwinkelmann

Can you add this to freeflarum?

ornanovitch

clarkwinkelmann As we bundle the emojione and emojioneArea libraries, the javascript for this extension is > 650kB, which can easily double or triple your assets size ⚠️ It's up to you to decide if it's worth it.

Hi there 😀

Is there any plan to reduce the load time ? Or to load the library after the composer box ? This is my only problem with this extension, particularly on mobile...

clarkwinkelmann

ornanovitch no. But another extension is coming.

ornanovitch

clarkwinkelmann wooooo I can't wait 🔥
Thank you

Littlegolden

Is there a way to reduce the size of the extension's js file (on the developer's side)?

clarkwinkelmann

Everyone please read up the discussion, I'm answering the same questions over and over and over again.

No optimization is possible without re-writing the whole thing. Which is what I'm actually doing, but it's not ready yet.

If you need someone helping with the testing, let me know. 🙂

Will your new extension by any chance offer to extend the emojis with custom ones somehow?

[deleted]

m4v3rick Oh yeah, custom emojis would be epic!

clarkwinkelmann

There will be a free and a pro version. I don't want to spoil but Pro will include things like that.

I have a working prototype but there are still many issues. I don't see much interest of having beta testers, what it needs is a lot more development hours before being ready.

I found out it's really not easy to write a fully fledged picker from scratch.

Don't give up! 😃 😃 😁

@clarkwinkelmann Possible to update this extension for the Beta 14 please?

clarkwinkelmann

nether494 this extension is on very low priority. It doesn't look like there's a lot to work required to make it compatible ( ~ 15 minutes maybe), but I can't say when I'll have time to do it.

You can make a GitHub Sponsors or Paypal donation if you would like to sponsor the update 😁
