Disable Emoji Scripts

AddonLogic Disable Emoji Scripts

About this Plugin

Removes the WordPress emoji compatibility layer — the detection JavaScript, inline CSS, TinyMCE plugin, dns-prefetch link tag pointing to s.w.org, and RSS/email static image conversion. All modern browsers render emoji natively, so this script is dead weight for most sites. Each component can be toggled independently.
