I need some help with old (imported vb4) BBCodes in the posts.
There are many posts including the following bbcodes:

Code:
[SIZE=1]
[SIZE=2]
[/SIZE]
[FONT=tahoma] etc.


I want to remove these BBCodes from all posts. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance :)

For FONT BBCODE REMOVE

Quick Find: [font

Regular Expression: #\[font=([^\]]+)\](.*)\[/font\]#siU

Replacement String: \2


For SIZE BBCODE REMOVE

Quick Find: [size

Regular Expression: #\[size=([^\]]+)\](.*)\[/size\]#siU

Replacement String: \2
 
Just installed 1.3 and clicking on the add-on returns
Error
The requested page could not be found.

I am guessing it's not installed correctly.

This directory should exist on the server:

library/PostReplace

And inside should be this:

library/PostReplace/addon_PostReplace.xml

That XML file needs to be imported in the Admin CP:

Admin CP -> Home -> Install Add-on
 
hmm, good question,

maybe remove them as I'm trying to make my site more mobile friendly but if you don't mind, both ways would be appreciated. Thank you.
 
How would I go about finding any references to the following:

Code:
thisurl.com

Code:
thisurl.com/folder/

Code:
jake's stuff

I don't actually want to replace anything, I just want to locate them.
 
I have some code snipets in my forum like this: [MEDIA=amazon]0123456789[/MEDIA].

I'd like to find them all and replace with this code: [AMAZON]0123456789[/AMAZON].

Can anyone help how to handle this?

Thank you @EQnoble but this seems not to work.

The replacement text will look like this:
[URL][media=amazon]3406570739[/media][/URL]

but I need
[amazon]3406570739[/amazon]

I'm sorry, I am rushing over here because they are shutting my power off within the hour and I don't know exactly when...I copy/pasted from one of my posts above so I could fill in the blanks and forgot to change replacement line.


I have edited it above...sorry about that. ( Gotta love having that option to not apply the changes :) )
 
Sorry @EQnoble Just have to interrupt you for one last time

I just found out that some text inside the media codes also contain letters but not only digits, e.g. [media=amazon]B00IWSNZ54[/media]

How do I have to update the regular expression accordingly in order to find these code snipets as well?
 
Hello,

I was wondering how to replace [SOMETHING] with [SOMETHINGdifferent].

I have tried [SOMETHING] as the regular expression with no success.

Thanks!
