I am trying to strip the shortcode as well, i found this function strip_shortcodes which can strip off the shortcode. However it will strip off the content enclosed by the shortcode.
For example,
"[myshortcode var1="1"]blah blah blah[/myshortcode] na na na"
after parsing the above text with strip_shortcodes($text),
The output will be:
"na na na"
What i want is just to strip off the tag itself rather than stripping the tags together with the content enclosed within the tag.
Anyone know of any ready function to do that? I am lazy to code it myself.
I am having some problem with Smooth Slider with 3.1.4 as well. Not sure it is the same problem as yours. It does not slide my post. Instead the post is stacked up from top to bottom. However in the setting area(preview), you can see the post slided correctly. You have the same problem?
