XF 2.2 Hiding unused BBCode

[VoklLLC]

I have a few BBcodes that I disabled, but there are leftover tags like this [example] left over.

What is the best way to remove the leftover BBcode?

Most likely via the database. I found 2 posts for you handling this option.

This one:

and maybe better, this one:

XF 2.1 - Replace text directly from database

Hi , Any usefull query to change some text from threads directly from database (via phpmyadmin) ? eg. change textABC to ABC123 . I know that exists an addon (find and replace) but i dont understand it at all . Thanks.

You could then use just nothing between the second part of quotation marks.

So like this:

UPDATE xf_post SET message = REPLACE(message,'[example]','');

The last quotes are not " but ' and another ' but without space between them.
Use at your own risk.

Maybe @Brogan can confirm this is correct for your assurance.
