    I am using woocommerce and woocommerce bookings.

    With bookings I am unable to use the advanced layout editor as it does not work with woo bookings.

    I needed to leverage shortcodes in the product info and they return on the search results page.

    I would like to strip short codes from products in search results.

    I saw this article,
    https://kriesi.at/support/topic/strip-shortcodes-in-searchresults/

    But the function does not filter for products and the second recommendation, removing excerpts, is not an option on product pages.

    Any ideas, thanks!

    Hi bowmandesign!

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    Please add this filter in the functions.php file:

    function ava_remove_shortcode_from_excerpt($content) {
	if(!is_search()) return;
	$content = strip_shortcodes( $content );
	return $content;
}
add_filter('the_excerpt', 'ava_remove_shortcode_from_excerpt');

    If this is not working, please post the url to the site so that we can inspect the search page.

    Cheers!

    Your function does remove the shortcodes, unfortunately, it also removes the content between the short codes.

    Can it remove the shortcodes only and leave the content?

    Thanks!

    Hey!

    What kind of shortcodes are you using? Please try the following filter:

    function ava_remove_shortcode_from_excerpt($content) {
	if(!is_search()) return;
	$pattern = get_shortcode_regex();
	$shortcode = preg_match_all( '/'. $pattern .'/s', $content, $matches );
	if(!empty($matches)) {
		foreach($matches[2] as $match2) {
			$content = str_replace('['.$match2.']', '', $content);
			$content = str_replace('[/'.$match2.']', '', $content);
		}
	}
	$content = strip_shortcodes($content);
	return $content;
}
add_filter('the_excerpt', 'ava_remove_shortcode_from_excerpt');

    Regards,
    Ismael

    Worked great! Thanks!

    I am using the Layout Elements 1/2 + 1/2 to achieve a 2 column layout for long text.

    Great Job!

    Looks like the still show up in the mini predictive search drop down, do you have a function for that? Thanks a bunch.

    Hi!

    Please add this filter to remove the shortcode in the ajax search.

    add_filter('avf_ajax_search_excerpt', 'avf_ajax_search_excerpt_mod', 10);
function avf_ajax_search_excerpt_mod($excerpt) {
	preg_match_all("^\[(.*?)\]^", $excerpt, $matches, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
	$excerpt = str_replace($matches[0], '', $excerpt);
	return $excerpt;
}

    Cheers!
