By default wordpress supports some basic emoticons. Here I can suggest some very cool wordpress plugins.

Kaskus Emoticons

Kaskus Emoticons is an emoticon set inspired by Kaskus, the Largest Indonesian Community – consisting of over a million active members from all over the world. The images which are used in this plugin are copyright of Kaskus

Speedy Smilies

Speedy Smilies takes emoticons in WordPress to the next level (where it should be already and hopefully one day will). The end goal is to make smilies load faster in the browser for visitors and make them easy to insert into posts/pages for authors. In addition to the speed benefits, Speedy Smilies allows authors to easily change the appearance of emoticons using smiley sets.

Speedy Smilies is free software licensed under the GNU GPL version 3.

Tango Smileys Extended

Tango Smileys Extended (TSE) disables the built-in WordPress smileys and extends the number of available smileys from 18 to 202. The extended smileys can be input using standard emoticon shorthand, or through the CTI (Click to Insert) interface. Smileys in comments is supported and may be inserted using the standard emoticon shorthand or through the CTI interface. MCEComments is also supported.

This version of Tango Smileys Extended is for WordPress 2.8+
WordPress versions pre-2.8 are no longer supported. If you are using WordPress 2.7.x, please use Tango Smileys Extended 2.5.4.1. WordPress 2.6.x and earlier are only supported in versions of Tango Smileys Extended older than, and including, 2.5.2.8.

Moods Addon for Ultimate TinyMCE

This plugin is designed to be used as an add-on to my Ultimate TinyMCE plugin. However, it can also be used as a stand-alone plugin as well.

For best results; You can download Ultimate TinyMCE here:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ultimate-tinymce/

This addon will add a button to your visual tinymce editor for posts/pages. Clicking the button will open a popup window with over 50 professionally animated .gif smiley’s.

You can insert these smiley’s into your post/page content areas. Simply click a smiley, and it is automatically inserted into your content area.

Font Emoticons

Replaces WordPress’ smileys (based on images) with font-based emoticons (see screenshots). Font-based emoticons have some advantages:

  • They have the same size as the surrounding text. No more distorting the heights of lines containing smileys/emoticons. They always fit the font size.
  • They have the same color as the surrounding text.

The following emoticons are supported:

  • :) :-) :smile:
  • :( :-( :sad:
  • ;) ;-) :wink:
  • :P :-P :razz:
  • -.- -_- :sleep:
  • :thumbs: :thumbsup:
  • :devil: :twisted:
  • :o :-o :eek:
  • 8O 8o 8-O 8-o :shock: (No real icon for “shock” yet. Using “eek” instead.)
  • :coffee:
  • 8) 8-) B) B-) :cool:
  • :/ :-/
  • :beer:
  • :D :-D :grin:
  • x( x-( X( X-( :angry:
  • :x :-x :mad: (No real icon from “mad” yet. Using “angry” instead.)
  • O:) 0:) o:) O:-) 0:-) o:-) :saint:
  • :'( :'-( :cry:

  • ^^ ^_^ :lol:

Notes: * Emoticons must be surrounded with spaces (or other white space characters); e.g. the emoticon in that:)smile won’t be replaced * Emoticons won’t be replaced in HTML tags nor in <pre> or <code> blocks.
