Better Server Emoji Organization

yueyueyue

The current server emoji organization is sorted by reverse alphabetical order, leading to either a) an unorganized emoji menu for members or b) a need to include prefixes before the emojis to have some resemblance of order. Especially for servers that have lots of emojis (and even more so for boosted servers with additional emoji slots), the current configuration makes it difficult for server owners/staff to manage the emojis. Hence, I propose a concept of better organization, which includes:

 
1) Emoji Search Function:
Similar to the Role Search function, searching for emojis will allow admins to easily edit or delete emojis instead of scrolling through a lengthy list.
 
2) Drag & Drop / Custom Ordering:
In this setup, emojis are default ordered by date added. However, if desired, admins can rearrange them through dragging & dropping, which allows them to customize the order by which emojis appear in the emoji menu of their members. Custom ordering can also allow easier management of the emojis that disappear when a server boost loses a level. For example, if a server drops from Level 2 to Level 1, instead of the latest uploaded emojis being grayed out, it can disable the last emojis in the list. Admins can thereby adjust the order to choose which emojis are gray.
 
3) Emoji Folders:
Grouping certain types of emojis by folder allows admins to organize emojis that are the same "family". Furthermore, this has the function of mass-rearranging the order of emoji families, as folders should also have drag & drop capabilities. In the example concept above, if an admin decides they would like the blob family to appear first, instead of at the end, they may simply drag the folder to the front of Wumpus. Unsorted emojis will automatically appear at the end of the last foldered emoji. Clicking into an emoji folder should also allow arranging options within the subcategory.

    Useful when you have duplicates of emotes, this is very organized!

    Upvoted! I hope they notice this, being a moderator of several communities with a bunch of emoji (and more often than not, on-and-off server perks from server boosts), being able to organize the disabled emoji would be a huge blessing! Actually, even just the ability to organize (or sort) the server emoji will be really useful in finding the ones you'd like to delete!

    This would be amazing. I'm currently adding 72 emotes to a server and struggling with figuring out how to name them in a way that keeps them organised without being annoying to type, and if this was implemented it would be such a boost for everyone
