unescape_invalid_shortcodes() WordPress Function

The unescape_invalid_shortcodes() function is used to unescape invalid shortcodes in a string. This is useful for when you want to output a string containing shortcodes that may be invalid, but you don't want them to be parsed by the shortcode parser.

unescape_invalid_shortcodes( string $content ) #

function unescape_invalid_shortcodes( $content ) {
	// Clean up entire string, avoids re-parsing HTML.
	$trans = array(
		'[' => '[',
		']' => ']',
	);

	$content = strtr( $content, $trans );

	return $content;
}
