How to implement emoji in php site?

Question

PHP

Good day.
I have a problem with connecting emoji to the site, that is, there are no problems, but the problem is in the output of the emoticons themselves, that is, in the encoding.
Actually I found the library on github, but nothing is clear.

This is the "example" that is on the github, but it's not clear what function plays its role.


This is a variable that contains the text that will be written to the database. (the text is filtered for tags, quotes, and the like).


This is how I already display the text from the database (the transofrm_text() function filters the text for the presence of #hastag )


This is the result when I tried to add a smiley. But it gives me parameters from the database. Actually here is the problem .


How to deal with it? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

$clean_text = emoji_docomo_to_unified($_POST['wall_message']);
$html = emoji_unified_to_html($clean_text);
