I’ve been testing out the regex in the search and replace and I’m having a problem with using back references.
I’m using some pseudo text (see below) and what I was trying to do is swap the places of the letters with the numbers.
I tried using:
([\w]+)_([\d]+)$
for the search term so the letters should be the first back reference and the digits should be the second back reference. But when I put:
\2_\1 as the replacement text it doesn’t work as I’d expect. Have I overlooked something or is this a bug?
Any insight would be appreciated.
Pseudo text:
foo_1234
bar_1237
foobar_3244
foo_2352
bar_2362
barfoo_1213
foo_6472
bar_7832
foo_8293
bar_3609
foobar_1239
Result Text:
2_1
2_1
2_1
2_1
2_1
2_1
2_1
2_1
2_1
2_1
2_1
Edit: I just noticed an error with the “Preview Post” when previewing a post it requires you to escape backslashes in order for them to show up but when you make the actual post all of the slashes appear.
Try $2_$1 as a replace string.
Ah works :) Thanks.
