Some of my articles contain plugin code, like I want to drop a module inline of my article. Since Joomla! supports this out of the box, I thought it would be a good idea to share my quick hack with the community. Mind you this will remove any and all intro text from the displayed article. But it works like a charm for my small display. The code below is as follows:
in the Content Slider module folder, in default.php around line 148
$contn->introtext = $contn->text;
// Check to see if content contains a bracket { which indicates plugin code. We dont want that displayed.
if (preg_match('/{load/', $contn->introtext)) {
$contn->introtext = "";
}
