Is it possible provide us some screenshot which main share box you referring?

Thanks! This one. On the news feed, also on profiles.. See attached

Can you check my first screenshot below and see is it you referring this emoticon?

If yes, it seems like you have disabled this setting from backend, I already help you turn it on, it should display on your dashboard and profile page now.

Thanks Arlex, the mood box works but it's not the sane as the emoticon box in the comments. The mood allows users to share how they're feeling but if a user wants to add a (nerd) or smiley in the middle or end of a sentence, they can't do this. Also, the box takes up valuable real estate at the top of the profile.

I think an emoticon box, built in next to the share button, would be much more useful and engaging for users.

Oh I got your meaning now, but unfortunately currently we do not have show emoticons icon beside the share button.

Actually those emoticons we also using the standard one, you can just manually type following symbol code, so it will auto generate to the emoticon after submit the story.
