Wordpress Gallery Shortcode Pregreplace -

basically need remove gallery shortcode wordpress content, i'm using

echo preg_replace('/\[gallery ids=[^\]]+\]/', '',  get_the_content() ); 

it removing gallery shortcode successfully, paragraph tags need keep. idea want output in content except gallery.

you use wordpress strip_shortcode function.

look @ example in codex. can create filter strips shortcodes:

function remove_shortcode_from($content) {   $content = strip_shortcodes( $content );   return $content; } 

and call when need (in template):

add_filter('the_content', 'remove_shortcode_from'); the_content(); remove_filter('the_content', 'remove_shortcode_from')

another way (and answering comment) can use wordpress apply_filters function in content after remove undesirables shortcodes.

//within loop $content = get_the_content(); $content = preg_replace('/\[gallery ids=[^\]]+\]/', '',  $content ); $content = apply_filters('the_content', $content ); echo $content; 

but not recommend that. think forcing site modify content of post make hard understanding. maybe should work wordpress excerpt , avoid problem.
