I need to replace a string inside a shortcode with an empty string "". This is the code:
$pattern = "#\[(.*)( rep=['\"]{1}1['\"]{1})(.*)\]#i";
$replacement = '[$1$3]';
//Test cases:
$values = [
'This is a [s1 val="1"] test',
'This is a [s1 val="1"] test rep="1"',
'This is a [s1 val="1" rep="1"] test',
'This is a [s1 de="2" rep="1" be="2"] test',
'This is a [rep="1" de="2" ] test',
'This is a [s2 val="1" rep="1" de="2"] test ... This is a [s3 val="1" rep="1" de="2" ] test',
];
foreach($values as $value)
{
echo preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $value) . "
";
}
The first five cases work as expected. Unfortunately, the sixth case which has two rep="1" inside doesn't work as expected since I want the rep="1" in both shortcodes removed. This could probably be on the regular expression.
NOTE: the rep="1" must be inside the shortcode (inside the [ and ]) for it to be replaced.
