I want to remove only country code not slash from string .
suppose: phone number is +1-555-555-5555 and i want like 555-555-5555
My code is
<?php
$sPhoneNumber =get_post_meta($post_id, '_vfb_field-23', true);
echo $result = preg_replace("/[^0-9]/", "", $sPhoneNumber);
?>
it given me output like 15555555555 and i want 555-555-5555
Use the following regex substitution:
$result = preg_replace("/^\+\d+-/", "", $sPhoneNumber);
It will remove 1+ digits and a - after it from the start of a string.
Using this solution, you will avoid changing strings that do not start with + followed with digits.
Instead of \d+ you may specify the country codes you need to remove. Say, you need to remove 22 and 48 codes:
$result = preg_replace("/^\+(?:48|22)-/", "", $sPhoneNumber);
You can use substr to get the substring after first '-', live demo here.
substr($string, strpos($string, '-') + 1);
Please refer : Working Demo
<?php
$phonenumber = '+1-555-555-555';
$array = explode("-", $phonenumber,2);
echo $array['1'];
?>

Try this, use preg_replace for it,
$result = preg_replace('~^[0\D]++|\D++~', '', $sPhoneNumber);
try on this site http://www.phpliveregex.com/p/jXB this reg
[^\+[0-9]-].*
using this function
preg_match("/[^\+1-].*/", $input_line, $output_array);
so basic you gonna find all the is not "+1-"
Its very simple, we can use substr() function to cut portion of string.
<?php
echo substr("+1-555-555-5555",3);
?>
