After a review of this code, it might be time for a review.

You can read my original guide here - https://www.mrkwp.com/2017/06/remove-emoji-script-from-wordpress-how-to-video/

It also has a video for the Emjoi script that is well over due an update.

Ill add an extra comment once i have that new code available and also more methods to remove emojis and get fast page results.
