Add custom emoji

By default, anyone other than guests can add custom emoji to a uKnowva Messenger organization. Added emoji are available to all users.

Organization administrators can also change who can add custom emoji.

Add a custom emoji

  1. Go to Custom emoji.

  2. Under Add a new emoji, enter an emoji name.

  3. Click Upload image or GIF and add a file in the PNG, JPG, or GIF file format. uKnowva Messenger will automatically scale the image down to 25x25 pixels.

  4. Click Add emoji.

Emoji names can only contain a-z, 0-9, dashes (-), and spaces. Upper and lower case letters are treated the same, and underscores (_) are treated the same as spaces.

Replace a default emoji

You can replace a default emoji by adding a custom emoji of the same name. If an emoji has several names, you must use the emoji's primary name to replace it. You can find the primary name of an emoji by hovering over it in the emoji picker, while the search box is empty (you may have to scroll down a bit to find it).

Delete a custom emoji

  1. Go to Custom emoji.

  2. Click the trash icon () next to the emoji that you would like to delete.

Deleting an emoji will not affect any existing messages or emoji reactions. Anyone can delete custom emoji they added, and organization administrators can delete anyone's custom emoji.
