Replacing male/female sign with image

Wow … even the forum converts unicode text to an image

I have a text string like this: “♂ Mars” OR “♂ Mars”
However, when the page is generated, the ♂ unicode text is converted to an image:
♂

How do I override this conversion?

Hi, @hyperboreanx

You can use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-emojis/ to disable all of wp emojis and use default ones.

or you can add code to your functions.php theme file as discussed here

Hope this helps,
Kind regards.

Thanks, the plugin worked.

I just noticed that even Twitter replaces the Unicode Mars/Venus characters with svg files.

Glad it worked! Yes, several plaforms, wp included, replace by default emojis unicode with their own svg files, to give it a unique look on their platform.

If your question has been answered, we would love if you would mark this topic as resolved in the sidebar. This helps our volunteers find the topics that still need attention and more people will get helped, possibly like you did.

Thank you!
