Emoji rendering problem

[j127]

It seems like there’s a bug when emojis are pasted right after text.

Edit: it turned out to be a setting — see below.

To reproduce:

• Go here and copy the emoji onto your clipboard.
• Make a comment below and write some text (like “testing”) and paste two emojis directly after the text without any spaces.

It should look like this in the editor and preview window:

Once the post is submitted, the first emoji will be converted to text, like :fire:.

Here’s the output:
text​

Edit: I’ve reproduced it in three Discourse forums, including this one.

Hello

There is a site setting which prevents this.

By default this setting is disabled.
enable inline emoji translation

Description:
Enables translation for inline emojis (without any space or punctuation before)

On my forum I’ve enabled this setting and it works in posts too.

Disabled

Enabled
