Can bots display custom emojis

[Ricky Spanish]

Hello, loving DBM so far but I;ve run into a problem that i wonder if anyone can help me solve.

I have a command that takes text and converts it to another string so something like 'test' would become ':sw_t: :sw_e: :sw_s: :sw_t:' and essentially convert the inputed text into a string of emojis that were also letters. however, when i do this, the bot only displays the text as you see it here ':sw_t: :sw_e: :sw_s: :sw_t:' and not as emojis, while typing the string in does indeed produce emojis.

here is an image of my problem : https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/385902552257921046/394601498597785601/Untitled.png

am i doing something wrong, or did i miss something? any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

You need to get the ID of the emoji. Do:
\:emojiname:
And copy the ID you'll get.
Then return to DBM and type
<:ID:>
More help on discord.
