Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 08:04 AM
My Sharona Posted Thursday at 04:25 PM Posted Thursday at 04:25 PM After todays episode of "forum maintenance", it seems some members are complaining of missing emojis. I have asked them to clear their browsers but upon looking myself, I see that there are a number missing. Browsers are cleared, as per the email that was sent however, this is consistent across both sites here.
Ryan Ashbrook Posted Thursday at 04:30 PM Posted Thursday at 04:30 PM I am not seeing this issue, currently - and wouldn't be related to the maintenance earlier. This appears to be newer emoji that are not supported on that device. Emoji are not static files (which is what the maintenance was pertaining to) but are actual characters.

I understand that but I guess what i don't understand is how it would be device specific. Wouldn't it be browser specific?

Thank you Gary. Your response and @Ryan Ashbrook's helped me with my emoji here. However, I'm not sure it helps with my members who are complaining that their emojis were there this morning but when the community experienced issues, they lost them and one member in particular says all they see now is a blue box with a question mark in it.
