Hello, I am writing this because I noticed the emoticons are not showing as intended on my Windows 7. It works just fine on my Windows 10, but when I was browsing the site using Windows 7 and looked at the emoji, it appears to be blank so I believe there might be some compatibility issue with older devices.

Hio @silva-lau,

Could you please check it on the wpDiscuz – Emoticons demo page and let us know how it works:  https://addons.wpdiscuz.com/wpdiscuz-emoticons/

Just a quick update, I found that the reason why it appears blank on my windows 7 is due to CSS, after I updated my CSS, it now looks similar to the ones as shown on the Demo page, but still, it is weird how that the emoji doesn't show up properly on older devices and instead show a line art

Please note the old browsers do not support emoji. Probably you use the old browsers, thus the emoji doesn't show up properly.

@elvina I'm pretty sure I'm using the latest version of Google Chrome though.

@silva-lau,

The old version of Operation Systems(OS) does not support Unicode, thus the emoji doesn't show up properly.
