Omit Emoji component

This theme component will allow you to specify a set of emoji and/or emoji groups to omit from the emoji picker.

There are several levels of omission you can achieve. These are outlined below along with the related settings:

1. Remove emoji groups from the picker

This configuration is for those that want to reduce the clutter in the emoji picker. There’s a lot to scroll through, so if certain emoji groups don’t make sense for your community, this allows you to remove them. The omitted emoji can still be discovered through the emoji picker search or emoji auto complete features.

  • omitted emoji groups - Remove the groups you wish to keep, leave the ones you want to omit

2. Prevent emoji from showing up in the emoji picker search or emoji auto-complete feature

Users will never be presented these emoji. They would only ever be posted if the user explicitly added emoji code like :slight_smile:

  • omitted emoji - Add the names of the emoji you wish to remove from all manners of discovery

    The following are full emoji sets by group. You can copy and paste the pipe delimited lists into the omitted_emoji theme setting, then click “create,” to add the full set. You can modify the lists as needed, just be careful to maintain the formatting.

3. Block emoji from being posted

As a final measure, you can add any emoji you wish to block from being posted to the “Watched Words” setting found at /admin/logs/watched_words/action/block. Be sure to use the full emoji code like :slight_smile:. Watched words allows you to upload a list, but it needs to be one emoji on each line.

Is this component has broken? It says not working with 2.9.0.beta2.

It’s been quite some time since I’ve taken a look at this component. The code is also fairly fragile, so it’s very possible it will need some fixes. I will check into it this week! Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Ok, this component should be fixed with the following commit:

As mentioned in the commit message, it’s not a perfect solution, but I think it will be better than it was. Ideally we can get a setting in core someday that allows more granular control of emoji. I’m not sure if it comes up enough to warrant it, though.

Let me know if there are any issues that come up!

Is it possible to disable emoticons in chat? I found that the plugin only disables emoticons in posts.

We have the emoji deny list admin setting now, so this theme component may not be as necessary as it once was:

Would using that setting instead suit your usecase?
