XF 2.1 New Smilies?
- Thread starter Sisterhood

If by new smilies, you mean the emoji picker, this requires that your database support emoji. This is the default in 2.x installs, but if you upgrade from 1.x, you need to run commands to convert the database. See this manual page for more details:

Emoji and unicode support | XenForo
XenForo 2 supports full unicode text, which means that emoji can be used in almost all locations that users can enter text.

thanks for the answer but that is much too complicated just because of a few smilies you have to log in to the server???

They are not smilies. The additional images in the smilie menu are actually emojis. To use them, you must have a database that supports them. Your XF2 install has always been able to use emojis, but, again, only if your database supports them. XF 2.1 merely displays them alongside the default smilies.
To enable emoji support, you need to follow the steps in the manual that Mike linked to.

hi, anybody can help or refer me to a guide to do this on shared host? my hosting service dont have ssh access.
i want to try this manually in phpmyadmin, and found options to change from utf8mb4_general_ci to utf8mb4_unicode_ci for tables. but unsure if the columns (and which is good) to convert too.
thanks.

My host is stating they are unable to do this for me, any idea how I can automate this somehow without command line?
