[BUG] eSteem Surfer 2.0.6 / Emojis in the tag bring a mistake and should not be possible

Opened this issue · 1 comments

Project Information

Expected behavior

My expectation was that it would not be possible to use an Emoji as a tag because it would output an error in different frontends.

Actual behavior

At the moment it is possible to use an Emoji as a day in the app. This makes it possible to get to a URL that cannot be displayed.

As an example here are some links where it works:
https://steemit.com/esteem/@louis.random/this-is-a-test-title

https://steemit.com/trending/%F0%9F%98%8D "This is the heart eyes Emoji"

How to reproduce

Install the latest version of esteem Surfers

Go to the edit mode of a post and use an emoji as tag.

  • Simply insert an emoji into the body of the content, mark and copy it and finally paste it as tag into the tag bar.
  • Browser/App version: 2.0.6 latest
  • Operating system: MAC OS 10.14

Solution Idea:

To allow the insertion and representation of Emojis only in the title and in the body of the post. Disable emojis for tags

thanks for reporting, it is very edge case but we will fix it
