Error message when sending PMs

Post by Katie Stepanian »

Don’t seem to be able to send PMs at the moment. Anyone else?

Actually, I think I know what is happening. Your message included an emoji which our system doesn't handle at the moment.

Maybe it works with some emojis and not others? I don't think we made any changes that should have changed this.
I understand the problem now. It's basically a bug in the underlying database that is used by millions of sites. There is a workaround that I will consider.

I made an update which should support emojis now. Please give it a try. It should work in both the Subject and the Message. Please give it a try and let me know. Thanks.
