After the recent upgrade, the old reactions plugin stopped working. So I installed the new official reactions plugin, which requires that admins manually add emoji that can be used as reactions.
These reactions can now be used instead of the regular “like” function. It looks like old likes are locked.
You can also set emoji that may be used as reactions, but don’t count as likes.
I can also change the default “like” away from the standard heart to a different icon.
I’ve populated the list of reactions with a few emoji so long.
Let me know your thoughts and if you’d like to see a specific emoji as a reaction.
Also let me know if you think it is too cluttered and some emoji should be removed.
