    I don’t think I’ve ever searched for emoji before, but now there’s a case where it would be helpful. I searched for an emoji that is on the site and came up with no results. Maybe it’s because it’s only one character?

    This is probably an unusual case but would be handy for me.

    It’s a minimum word length issue, yes. Some emoji are actually two characters. For example ??? is “fist character” and “black skin tone character”. Some are just one character, like ?.

    You must adjust the minimum word length to 1 from Relevanssi advanced indexing settings and then allow one-letter searches with:

    add_filter( 'relevanssi_block_one_letter_searches', '__return_false' );

    So it is possible… thank you!

    Relevanssi has no problems with emoji in itself, they’re characters like anything else.

    I tried running the code snippet using the Code Snippets plugin (in addition to changing the indexing setting) but this didn’t work. It’s not important enough to debug, but thanks for the response.

    Did you rebuild the index after changing the setting?

    I just rebuilt the index and now it works! Thanks for your assistance.
