多个PHP str_replace

Question

I would like to use two str_replace in my PHP echo. Below is my code: it displays my Wordpress post title, and replace the | by a </br> to make the title appearing on multiple lines. It works, but now I would like to add italic to few words of that same title. Does anybody have an idea how to manage this?

<?php echo str_replace(' | ', '<br />', get_the_title()); ?>

Answer 1

Why not do something such as:

$string = str_replace([' | ', 'REPLACE_ME'], ['<br />', 'REPLACE_ME'], 'STR_TO_REPLACE');

This way you only need to call str_replace once but you can change many input values with many output values?

Answer 2

Thank you, Jeppesen, it works perfectly! I made a small correction, here is what solved my problem:

<?php 
  $first = str_replace(' | ', '<br />', get_the_title()); 
  echo str_replace('°', '<i />', $first);
?>
