--- ** [tickets:#8251] Editor support for emoji short codes** **Status:** open **Milestone:** unreleased **Labels:** emoji **Created:** Mon Oct 22, 2018 09:32 PM UTC by Dave Brondsema **Last Updated:** Mon Oct 22, 2018 09:32 PM UTC **Owner:** nobody Since most people won't have memorized lots of emoji names, it would be helpful for the markdown editor to provide prompts/help for it. One method would be with the [CodeMirror hint](https://codemirror.net/doc/manual.html#addon_show-hint) addon. So as soon as you type `:` it starts showing suggestions. SimpleMDE is the package we use for markdown editors, and that is built on CodeMirror. Both of which are due for an upgrade, if that helps at all. A button in the toolbar would be helpful too for people that don't even know that `:foo:` shortcode format is a thing. It could suggest some popular ones, potentially with a search for more (but not sure how easy that is). Buttons are controlled with the SimpleMDE config. --- Sent from forge-allura.apache.org because dev@allura.apache.org is subscribed to https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/tickets/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/admin/tickets/options.
