Thanks Laurent Droid, but I finally have a fix!

Samuel Wood updated the Classic Smilies plugin and it’s fixed the issues I was having. ??

@samuel Wood: You are a CHAMPION!! The plugin is working perfectly from what I can see. Thank you!

No worries, will go do that now. Cheers!

I gave it a shot but it ends up stretching the smilies into weird sizes (taller but still the same – thin – width). I tried adding in a width option as well but then it just throws the whole thing out, doesn’t let the images be their actual sizes. I’ll just wait to see what comes about or roll back to a previous version.

Thanks for your help.

When I check the coding on the page via Chrome’s ‘inspect element’, this is an example of what’s showing up:

<img src="https://www.oliverandfelicity.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/clap.gif" alt=":clap:" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;">

Am I correct in guessing it’s the class:wp-smiley height of 1em that’s stuffing things around? If so, how do I get rid of that class? (Or, at the very least, change it so that it’s not 1em)

Seriously, this is one ‘feature’ that probably should have been made optional through Jetpack or something.

All my smilies are now miniscule in size and barely visible. I’ve tried using the Disable Emojis plugin – didn’t work. Tried using the code apocalypseboy.com suggested for the functions.php – also no-go. (I dabble – I don’t know enough about this stuff to say for certain why they aren’t working.)

I assume that means I’m going to have to hack something to change the wp-smiley/wp-emoji class which, frankly, is a pain in the butt.

Please WordPress – consider taking Emojis back OUT of 4.2 and making it an optional feature.

Neither. I used the existing code in the functions.php, added more options than the WP standard and uploaded my own smilies to replace the WP standard smiley images.

From that description by the OP, I’m having the same problem since I upgraded to 4.2. It’s driving me bananas.

Mat, you are a CHAMPION! That worked a treat – thanks so much! ??
