Remove HTML tags from export

    Is there a special filter we can add to the “Misc. Settings / Custom PHP code to modify output” section that would remove HTML tags from the export?

    Case example – some of our product titles have bold (<b></b>), break (<br/>), and style (<span style=""></span>) tags. When we export these products we want a clean export, without the HTML tags. Is that possible?

    Thanks!

    hi

    try this code.
    thanks, Alex

    add_filter( 'woe_xml_prepare_record', function($rec ) {
 array_walk_recursive($rec, "strip_tags");
 return $rec;
});

    Thanks – After entering the code, the Preview came back beautifully. It actually converted the HTML as regular text – bolding where the “<b>” tags were and changing the styles where the “<span style>” tags were. But, when exporting and opening the .xlsx file in LibreOffice, it still showed the HTML tags.

    Any thoughts?

    I found a way to search/find/replace html tags in LibreOffice. So, if a php custom code doesn’t work, I have this as a back up. It just adds an extra step and time to the process that’s already too long.

    hi Chris

    My bad, here is tested code with fixed error.

    add_filter( 'woe_fetch_order', function($rec ,$order) {
 array_walk_recursive($rec,  function(&$a) {
   $a = strip_tags($a);
 } );
 return $rec;
}, 10, 2);
