Excellent question. But if you don't know, who does??

I can't decipher the issue because here at work half of the images are non-displayable. (postimage is blocked, just for one.)

But if I look at the hypertext I see

Code: Select all

<img alt="🟩" class="emoji smilies" draggable="false" src="//twemoji.maxcdn.com/2/svg/1f7e9.svg">
<img alt="🟨" class="emoji smilies" draggable="false" src="//twemoji.maxcdn.com/2/svg/1f7e8.svg">
Which leads me to believe that the images at twemoji are not accessible,
so what you see is the image-not-accessible icon, followed by the alt text, which is itself an emoji.

twemoji is twitter's emoji site. If you scan the /2/svg/ folder, you can see emoji like 1f9b4.svg (bone) or 1f9b6.svg (foot). But 1f7e8.svg and 1f7e9.svg are just not there. So I have no idea what they are supposed to be.

So where is the problem? Maybe it's with whatever "share" function you are using. I don't play wordle, I don't know what this generates, and I don't know how PHPBB3 applies it when you post it.

A reverse problem from the diacritics, some of which (iirc?) Lead to a blank preview screen, but which managed to post if you hit Submit.

Fist are you saying we should run the share/copy data through a diacritic remover?

No, I wasn't saying that. I was just comparing two different situations, this one and the diacritic one.

If someone can share what wordle generates as text, maybe I can look into it more.
Just paste it in between [code] and [/code] tags.

Rigel told me to check out the new place. Looking good! 8)

I don't think my Edgetar made it over, which is sad, but oh well.

Apropos of nothing, I just noticed that the date of the first post in a thread is also listed in the header.

Thank you for your thoroughness in checking out all those links in the Last Chronicles index, Skyweir! Your dedication is most appreciated!

Yes, Sky, when I re- checked all the links in the Last Chronicles index, I found that the link to SoulBiter's dissection of Fatal Revenant Part One Chapter 5, entitled "I Know What to Do", wasn't working properly. So, thanks to your letting me know about that, I fixed it! :thumbsup:
