So if someone uses an emoji from the iOS keyboard, is there anyway to convert it to something that vbulletin will understand? Not necessarily show the emoji, but understand the code that creates it.

For example if I make a post on our site from my iPhone, and add an emoji from the native keyboard. I can see the emoji on my phone, and all I see on a desktop is a rectangle with 6 characters in it (like my screenshot above). The issue is, when I go to edit that post from my desktop, the edit box appears but the post text is not there, it's just an empty box.

This is is the issue I am having.

However it seems the same thing is not happening on vbulletin.org - my emojis just get shown as black diamonds after posting (both iPhone and PC) - somewhere they are being converted into something else.

Can anyone explain that?
