Description

Description:

See on the attached screenshot that R is being used instead of the green checkmark image when the message is being replied/quoted.

screen shot 2018-11-12 at 10 01 26

This is an example of the message object:

{
  "username": "Status Update [Bot]",
  "icon_url": "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8f/Checkmark.svg",
  "text": "Example message"
}
