2. Confluence Docs 3.0 : How to Disable Emoticons This page last changed on Mar 10, 2009 by ggaskell. The text markup (i) is rendered as , a principle which applies to many more Confluence Emoticons. There is a feature request at CONF-4884 for enabling or disabling emoticon rendering in this manner via Confluence's Administrative features. However, to disable emoticon rendering in Confluence: ##### For Confluence 2.8.x and earlier: Open up the `wikiFiltersSubsystemContext.xml`: For Confluence 2.5.x and earlier, this file is located in WEB-INF/classes directory For Confluence 2.6.x to Confluence 2.8.x, this file is located in WEB-INF/lib/confluence-2.x.y.jar/plugins. Please follow the steps as suggested here to edit files in a .jar file. Determine the following line and remove/comment out the content:
       <ref local="emoticonRendererComponent"/>
2. ##### For Confluence 2.9.x and later: Open up the `wiki-renderer-components.xml`, located in WEB-INF/lib/confluence-2.x.y.jar/plugins. Please follow the steps as suggested here to edit files in a .jar file. Determine the following line and remove/comment out the content:
       <renderer-component key="emoticon" name="Emoticon Renderer"
       class="com.atlassian.confluence.renderer.plugin.SpringRendererComponentFactory" weight="10000">
           <param name="componentName">emoticonRendererComponent</param>
       </renderer-component>
Alternatively, manually escape the character with a "slash","\". For example:
    \(i)
Code Macro and Noformat Macro is also an option as any emoticons wrapped within the macro will be disabled automatically.
