Wordpress expert ! Help required!

How can i remove all the attachment link ("www.mysite.com/?attachment_id=xxx") from all the images in all the post !

I can remove it by editing one by one but since i have more than 500 post , its killing me and my fingers !

I'm sure there must be an easy way to do this ! i tried using a few plugin like search and replace / replace /search regen but its not solving my issue !

Will be great if an expert here can guide me on this issue !
Thanks in advance !

Regards

 

You can export your dabase to sql file, use a text editor to find and replace them. After that, re-import it.

 

its difficult since the format is different in html code !

I want to remove the bold parts from all my posts! Is there any other way to solve this issue !

 

You can use a filter to remove the links before the content is displayed. You can find more on filters in the Wordpress Codex: codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/the_content The filter would be something like preg_replace("/link-code/", "", $content);

 

can you please guide me ! elaborate more in using the filters! how can i use this filters

 

You must know PHP and understand WordPress structure for they way @car said.

In your functions.php file in the theme you are using you have to add a function which will filter the post content. In should be something like this:

function remove_a_tags($content) {
    $pattern = "/<a rel=\"(.*?)><img(.*?)<\/a>/ig";
    $replacement = "<img$2";
    $content=preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $content);
    return $content;
}

add_filter( "the_content", "remove_a_tags" );

PHP:

But you have to figure the regular expression yourself - mine is just an example, which I haven't tested. It most probably won't work as it is and needs tweaking.

 

i have installed a wp plugin which does the above same function! the only problem i m facing is , i m not able to get the right expression for search and replace !
search = "<a rel=\"(.*?)><img(.*?)<\/a>"
replace = "<img$2"

 

The expression I gave earlier works, you just need to remove the 'g' modifier, e.g.:

Please note that this will work only if the plugin you found uses regular expressions and not plain search&replace (str_replace). If you still can't make it to work, give me the name of the plugin and an example post content and I will try to find the problem.
