Hi,

I like to add emojis in titles, but after an emoji is added, the url of the post also changes, including the name of the emoji.

For example, if I add the 😄 emoji, the url changes:

```
Before: www.example.com/t/nice-title/25
After: www.example.com/t/smile-nice-title/25

```

This is bad for SEO. Is there anyway to manually edit the URL or to avoid having URLs with emojis?

Thanks!
