Keep Emoticons as Text

Por Geek Goddess

Descripción

This plugin was created because with the release of 4.3, WordPress removed the «Formatting» section from the Writing settings. Included in there was the option to turn off WordPress’s default action to convert text emoticons to image smilies. This plugin does the same thing as unchecking the «convert to smilies» box that used to be available via the settings when that update happened.

Now that setting has returned to the Writing Settings, so you can simply uncheck the box again there, but in case WordPress removes the setting again, this plugin will remain available.

Instalación

Upload the keep-emoticons-as-text directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
Activa el plugin en menú ‘Plugins’ de WordPress

FAQ

Does this add any overhead to WordPress?: No, it’s one line of code. It’s being posted as a plugin for convenience for those who don’t want to edit their theme functions file.

The actual functioning PHP code is just one line, which is exactly what it needs to be. I went from «How do I turn this off on my client’s site» to Google to an article to installing this plugin to problem completely solved in literally one minute. Thank you for being awesome.

The super «massive» code of this plugin is, literally, : add_filter( 'option_use_smilies', '__return_false' ); altough for newer PHP 5.3+ I would suggest add_filter('option_use_smilies',function(){ return false; }); I fear the times, when you will have to install separate plugin for every WordPress option…
