I am facing an issue with emotions which even seems to be the case on the demo site http://dotnetdate.com/. The issue is when I  open a one-to-one chat in Web messenger & type in some emotion like :) it doesn't get converted to the smiley icon. But strangely when I  start an 'Invite' chat and send the :) as a message and it shows the emotion as expected. Why is this inconsistency ? The same issue can be observed on the demo site. Does anyone  has encountered this issue and is there any fix available for this.

 

Cheers!
