XF 2.2 After server move, about 50% of the smileys were not taken over

I had a big problem with smileys last year, not all of which were adopted after a server move. Instead, strange characters were then displayed.

Today I find that iPhone users can add many other smileys that Xenforo doesn't have.

I suspect now: The problem after the server move was that only the iPhone smileys were not transferred. Can this be?

I'm also asking because I want to do another server move this year and want to prepare for it.

Attached is a screenshot of my admin area. Is everything set correctly?


(I have no Iphone, just Android and Windows pc)

Smilies and emojis are different.

Smilies are manually added in the ACP at admin.php?smilies/ .

Emojis are inserted from a device, if the XF install supports them: https://xenforo.com/docs/xf2/unicode/

From a Windows computer for example, you press the Windows key and . which brings up this:

You can also access emojis from the editor menu:

When you did the server move it's possible the database dump was not taken correctly: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/public-service-announcement-check-your-mysql-backup.152740/
 
OK thanks. Then I meant emojis and not smileys.

What could be the reason why a lot of emojis were not transferred after the server move? Are my settings from the screenshot correct?
 
If the database dump is correct, will these three different emojis definitely be carried over after a server move?

With Android and Windows I can only select one of these three emojis.

When you say yes, than it must be a database problem?
