Remove emojis from string

Question

I'm using imagettftext function on my code and I found out that emojis can't be used. I tried lots of solutions, but I can't find out a way to completely remove them

$string = remove_emoji("Test⭐️🌈");
function remove_emoji($text){
      return

Answer 1

I used this function, customized with additional Unicode ranges (including more emojis and country flags), You can do the same using the details on this page http://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html.

Here is the result:

function remove_emoji($string)
{
    // Match Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement
    $regex_alphanumeric = '/[\x{1F100}-\x{1F1FF}]/u';
    $clear_string = preg_replace($regex_alphanumeric, '', $string);

    // Match Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs
    $regex_symbols = '/[\x{1F300}-\x{1F5FF}]/u';
    $clear_string = preg_replace($regex_symbols, '', $clear_string);

    // Match Emoticons
    $regex_emoticons = '/[\x{1F600}-\x{1F64F}]/u';
    $clear_string = preg_replace($regex_emoticons, '', $clear_string);

    // Match Transport And Map Symbols
    $regex_transport = '/[\x{1F680}-\x{1F6FF}]/u';
    $clear_string = preg_replace($regex_transport, '', $clear_string);
    
    // Match Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs
    $regex_supplemental = '/[\x{1F900}-\x{1F9FF}]/u';
    $clear_string = preg_replace($regex_supplemental, '', $clear_string);

    // Match Miscellaneous Symbols
    $regex_misc = '/[\x{2600}-\x{26FF}]/u';
    $clear_string = preg_replace($regex_misc, '', $clear_string);

    // Match Dingbats
    $regex_dingbats = '/[\x{2700}-\x{27BF}]/u';
    $clear_string = preg_replace($regex_dingbats, '', $clear_string);

    return $clear_string;
}
