Additional Attributes on the Shortcode
search
Optionally tells the extension what text to find in the titles of your listing's items. The value will be parsed as a regular expression using the preg_replace
format from PHP (do not include the delimiters, usually /
characters, at the start and end of the expression). Anything the pattern matches will be replaced with the value of replace
.replace
Optionally tells the extension what value to replace the matched text from search
. It defaults to empty string meaning remove the matches from the titles entirely. However, it can take any text value.case-sensitive-search
Optionally tells the plugin to match the search
terms exactly, where upper case and lower case are different values. This option can be set to either on
or off
and defaults to being disabled meaning that the search is case-insensitive.
Example
Remove "WordPress" from the titles
[a-z-listing search="WordPress"]
Note that when removing text you do not need to specify a replace
value as the default is an empty string.
Replace "WordPress" followed by a version number in the titles with "Joomla" followed by the same version number
[a-z-listing search="WordPress (\d[\d.]*)" replace="Joomla \1"]
