Hi all,
As per the title, is it possible to delete the default custom emojis that come with the base install of the team edition? Google didn’t find any relevant results, so I thought I’d ask here.
This is what I’m talking about:
No one uses them and they clutter the emoji picker.
I’ve tried the custom emoji tab with a System Admin account but I can only remove user-submitted emoji.
I’ve also tried deleting these emoji image files from /mattermost/client/emoji but this doesn’t remove them from the emoji picker.
I’m starting to wonder if this is even possible - any input is appreciated.
Thanks for reading
Hey there @gitsuppository, I don’t think it is possible to edit or remove the default custom emojis. We do have a feature request for this here : https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/19433266-edit-default-emojis
I’d recommend that you vote for it and leave comments to describe your use case so the dev team can understand how this would benefit users
Hi, @gitsuppository
On top of @joewai.tye 's recommendation, can you please give the following Ruby script a try as well?
Let me know how it goes on your end. Thanks.
Sure, thanks for your replies. I did see that script, however from what I understand it can only remove user-submitted custom emojis, not the ones that come bundled as default.
This is what I get when I run ./emoji_remove.rb
to verify the emoji to be deleted:
If you have any other ideas, or if I got the syntax wrong, let me know.
Thanks for your help
