Awaiting feedback Issue with smilies following update to 2.2.8

Still the same @Chris D

Firefox 96.0.2 (64-bit)

type text then add a smiley (or other image)
The cursor then moves before the smiley/image and you cannot place it after it.

In order to continue typing without moving the smiley with the text you have to delete the smiley/image first then finish your text, then add the smiley/image where you want it within the body of the text
 
I just had this issue (posted elsewhere) with Firefox - the work around is to press the down arrow key and that moves the cursor to the right of the smilie - which is a complete pain but it works.
 
The one thing I have noticed is it doesn't happen with the latest version of firefox whilst using an android phone (Samsung S20).
So is it specific to Firefox and Windows 10 ?
 
Maybe - I don't have android and don't use firefox on iphone so maybe it is just the desktop version of Firefox.
 
I'm using a windows 10 desktop with the Firefox latest (98.0.2) and this problem no longer happens on this site..;)
It does continues to be a problem on my site with XF v2.2.8 Patch 1, any idea why it happens on my site and not here?

Wondering if a fix is available...
Edited after my post below, there are still problems here.

Thanks!

I dislike misbehaving smilies, but there are still some problems here with them, smilie inserted ok but reverted the cursor before the smilie again.😏
 
Please mark this thread as duplicate of this thread:
No it's a complete different problem.

I need to switch to no-bb-code to type on a next row after placing a quote,image,video,emoticon. in FF 103.0.1 (64-bits) latest version.
 
Automated triage: Awaiting feedback

We couldn't find a cause in our own code, and the editor component has been updated since 2.2.8. We need a little more detail to look into this.

  • Can you still reproduce this on a current XenForo version? Please give your Firefox version and operating system.
  • Please list the exact steps: does the smilie come from the smilie menu, from typing a shortcode, or from the :name autocomplete? Is it the last thing in the message? How do you try to put the cursor after it (click, End key, arrow keys)?
  • Does it still happen in a Firefox private window with all browser extensions turned off?

This is an automated assessment. A member of staff may review and update it.
