Font Emoticons free WordPress plugin

Replaces WordPress’ smileys (based on images) with font-based emoticons (see screenshots). Font-based emoticons have some advantages: They have the same size as the surrounding text. No more distorting the heights of lines containing smileys/emoticons. They always fit the font size. They have the same color as the surrounding text. Note: This plugin was developed when WordPress was still using “pixel images” as emoticons. The current version of WordPress uses scalable vector images (SVG) – so they won’t distort your line heights anymore and look crisp on any size. This makes this plugin less useful than it once was – it now comes down to personal preference whether to use it. The following emoticons are supported: 🙂 🙂 (-: (: 🙂 🙁 🙁 🙁 😉 😉 😉 😛 😛 😛 -.- -_- :sleep: >:) >:-) :devil: 😈 😮 😮 😮 😯 8o 😯 8-o 😯 (No special icon for “shock” yet. Using “eek” instead.) :coffee: 8) 😎 B) B-) 😎 :/ :-/ :beer: 😀 😀 😀 x( x-( X( X-( :angry: 😡 😡 😡 (No special icon from “mad” yet. Using “angry” instead.) O:) 0:) o:) O:-) 0:-) o:-) :saint: :'( :’-( 😥 :shoot: |) :squint: ^^ ^_^ 😆 The following general purpose icons are supported: :thumbs: :thumbsup: :thumbsdown: <3 :heart: :star: (/) (ok sign) (x) (cancel) (i) (?) (+) (-) Notes: Emoticons/Icons must be surrounded with spaces (or other white space characters); e.g. the emoticon in that:)smile won’t be replaced. Emoticons/Icons won’t be replaced in HTML tags nor inside of

 or  blocks.
Use In Themes/Plugins
Font Emoticons are supported in most places where user defined text is displayed. However, there may be places in a
plugin or theme that are not supported by Font Emoticons.
In these cases, just apply the filter wp_font_emots_replace to the text that should display Font Emoticons.
For example, you would change the following PHP code:

to this code:

That’s it.
