Hi everyone, welcome to GeekyTube Blogging and in this video I will show you how you
0:03
can disable the emoji script that is loading by WordPress and improve your blog loading speed
0:09
So here I will show you three different ways to disable the emoji script that is loading
0:13
by WordPress by default and improve the speed. So let me just show you what I mean
0:18
So when you open your website and right click on it and click on inspect
0:22
And let me click control plus F and search for WP Emoji
0:28
And as you can see that this is the WP Emoji script that is loading by WordPress by default
0:33
So we don't want this script that's because modern browser has the built-in emoji function
0:38
so you don't need this script to load the emoji on your website
0:42
You can simply disable this on your website and emoji will still load from the browser
0:47
So this is where you can reduce a little bit of coding in your website
0:51
So let's check how you can do that. So here I will show you three different ways
0:55
Either you can use a code snippet to add disable this emoji script or you can use built-in
1:01
plugins like popmatters or lightspeedcache plugins. So I will show you three different ways
1:06
So let's start the video. And before starting let's hit the like button and let's go to the WordPress dashboard here
1:14
So let me quickly install the code snippet plugin. So you can use any code manager plugin here
1:19
So you can simply search for WP code. As you can see that you will see different code manager plugins
1:27
So here I will use this one WP code. Either you can use code snippet plugin as well or you can use different code snippet plugin
1:36
So let me just activate this code manager plugin here. Once you activate the code manager plugin you will see the code snippet option here
1:42
in the menu. So let's click on add snippet. And here let me add a custom code here
1:49
And here I can name the title like disable emoji. Now you need to paste a code here in the code preview section
1:57
So let me just copy this code from here. And let's paste this code here
2:04
Now you need to change the code type to PHP snippet. Let's activate this code snippet and let's click on save changes
2:12
Ok now we have added the function file here in the code manager plugin
2:17
So you can go to the website. Let's refresh this page. Let me inspect it again
2:23
Let's search for that same script. So I will type like control plus F and I will type like WP emoji
2:31
As you can see that it is not showing that script and it is not loading in your website
2:36
at all. So this is how you can block the emoji script in your WordPress website
2:41
And if you want a different method you can also do that. So either if you are using light speed plugin you can also disable this emoji just by clicking
2:50
on settings. So for this let's go to the light speed and let's click on page optimization
2:57
And here you will see this option here in the HTML setting
3:02
And just scroll down here you can see remove WordPress emoji. So just turn on the setting and click on save changes
3:09
This will also block that emoji script to load on your website
3:14
So either you can use a manual code snippet plugin or you can use this light speed cache plugin
3:19
So I have already covered how to customize the light speed cache plugin and improve your
3:23
block loading speed. So you can simply search for light speed here in our channel
3:28
So let's search for it and as you can see that this is the video. So I have explained each and every settings in the light speed cache plugin or you can
3:35
use a premium plugin like pop matters plugin. So I have already explained how to set up the pop matters as well
3:42
So let me just show you how you can use the pop matters to disable the emoji as well
3:46
So here you can go to settings and let's click on pop matters
3:50
And here you will see this first option disable emojis. So in this way you can use different plugins like you can use pop matters or light speed
3:59
cache plugin or you can use a manual code snippet plugin to disable the emoji in WordPress
4:05
So I have shown you three different ways how you can disable emojis in your WordPress website
4:10
So you have to choose that best fitted for you. So I hope you have understand how to disable emoji script in your WordPress website and
