Insert emoji/text at the end of the text in a contenteditable

I am trying to insert an emoji in the content editable area. But whenever I am trying to insert, it is inserted at the start of the line.

i am using

here is my code example

jQuery(document).on('click', 'a.fg-emoji-picker-item', function(){
    var emoji = jQuery(this).attr('href');
    var el = jQuery('.advanced-th-bp-activity-form');
    el.focus();
    pasteHTMLAtCaret(emoji);
});

and the pasteHTMLAtCaret function is

function pasteHTMLAtCaret(html, selectPastedContent) {
    var sel, range;
    if (window.getSelection) {
        sel = window.getSelection();
        if (sel.getRangeAt && sel.rangeCount) {
            range = sel.getRangeAt(0);
            range.deleteContents();
            var el = document.createElement("div");
            el.innerHTML = html;
            var frag = document.createDocumentFragment(), node, lastNode;
            console.log(frag);
            while ( (node = el.firstChild) ) {
                lastNode = frag.appendChild(node);
            }
            var firstNode = frag.firstChild;
            range.insertNode(frag);
            if (lastNode) {
                range = range.cloneRange();
                range.setStartAfter(lastNode);
                if (selectPastedContent) {
                    range.setStartBefore(firstNode);
                } else {
                    range.collapse(true);
                }
                sel.removeAllRanges();
                sel.addRange(range);
            }
        }
    } else if ( (sel = document.selection) && sel.type != "Control") {
        var originalRange = sel.createRange();
        originalRange.collapse(true);
        sel.createRange().pasteHTML(html);
        if (selectPastedContent) {
            range = sel.createRange();
            range.setEndPoint("StartToStart", originalRange);
            range.select();
        }
    }
}

enter image description here

Look the emojis are inserted into the first, thought those emojies were entered after the text.
