Confusing chat channel order when name starts with emoji

[simon_tomes]

I’ve used an emoji at the start of each channel title. Perhaps that’s why the version I see isn’t one that appears to be in a logical/alphabetical order.

Yep, I think you’re right.

I wonder if we should order channels by the slug instead of the name?

Thanks, @mcwumbly.

order channels by the slug instead of the name

I reckon that would do it.

I just pushed a change which will now use the slug for ordering instead of the name:

You might need to update your slugs as they might contain the text version of the emoji.

Thanks for the fix, @j.jaffeux.

Looking good from this side.

Great to hear, thanks for update!
