Smilies
Smilies (sometimes called emoticons) are small images that replace short text shortcuts. They let you add tone and personality to your posts without typing a full sentence.

2Tips for using smilies
- Shortcuts are case-sensitive — :D works, :d may not.
- Put a space before and after a shortcut so it is recognised.
- You can disable smilies in a single post by toggling the “Disable smilies” option in the editor.
