Deactivate WA Web Auto Emojis
This is a small browser addon, that deactivates the auto replacement of smileys with emojis in WhatsApp Web.
When typing :D
in WhatsApp Web, instead of just keeping it as text 😀
will be injected.
I don't like that.
This extensions disables it, by putting an zero-width-space between :
and D
.
There is an option page where you can toggle the behaviour for individual emojis.
Known issues
As WhatsApp Web does not use an HTML <input>
but had the "great idea" to have some div listening to keypresses, it is hard to inject stuff.
- It does only work, when you are typing at the end of the text. Adding a smiley in the middle of the text will not be disabled.
- It does not work when pasting text.
