I ran a Compatibility Scan with this plugin – PHP Compatibility Checker by WP Engine – before upgrading to PHP 7.0and the report found the following:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Do you need to address these before I upgrade to 7.0?
]]>…sorry for the double post ??
]]>Installed the plugin but it doesn’t hide emojies.
]]>Upgraded today without reading release notes. Guess I deserved what happened next. On WP 4.9.2 pligin causes Error 500 in admin backend. Had to remove it via FTP.
A shame really, since it was the only emoji removing plugin that actually worked. I hope this is taken care of.
