🙂 Emoji in Title and URLs

[Johani (Joe)]

I don’t think removing the emojis from the url is a possibility just yet, but I could be wrong.

While I understand you want to keep the emojis but remove them from urls, if that bothers you so much, you can remove / disable them altogether.

There was a bit of discussion about this here:

Allow me to disable emojis in topic titles

I’d love a global switch that says, “no emojis in subject lines” it can just be forward moving, leaving the existing posts as is… the problem is escalation. One leads to five leads to a mess.

Which resulted in a setting to disable emojis in topic titles if that’s what you prefer:

Allow me to disable emojis in topic titles

PR here: https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/5604 max_emojis_in_title defaults to 2. Setting it to 0 will disable emojis in topic titles. EDIT: PR is now merged.
