Deprecated: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use preg_replace_callback in Echelon B3

Question

    function removeColorCode($text) {
      return preg_replace('/\\^([0-9])/ie', '', $text);
    }

The above code gives a deprecation warning on Echelon B3 i think after upgrading to PHP 5.5.29 by our host provider

---

How can I replace the code properly with preg_replace_callback()?

Answer 1

In this specific case, just remove the /e it does nothing here.
You can also remove the /i So your code becomes:

function removeColorCode($text) {
  return preg_replace('/\^[0-9]/', '', $text);
}
