//Shortcode Parser function

function disqusParser($text) {
	
	// NOTE : I had to update this sample code with below line to prevent obvious attacks as pointed out by many users.
	// Always ensure that user inputs are scanned and filtered properly.
	$text  = htmlspecialchars($text, ENT_QUOTES, $charset);

	// BBcode array
	$find = array(
    '~\[disqus\]~s',
    '~\[disqus\][/disqus\]~s'
 /* '~\[b\](.*?)\[/b\]~s',
		'~\[i\](.*?)\[/i\]~s',
		'~\[u\](.*?)\[/u\]~s',
		'~\[quote\](.*?)\[/quote\]~s',
		'~\[size=(.*?)\](.*?)\[/size\]~s',
		'~\[color=(.*?)\](.*?)\[/color\]~s',
		'~\[url\]((?:ftp|https?)://.*?)\[/url\]~s',
		'~\[img\](https?://.*?\.(?:jpg|jpeg|gif|png|bmp))\[/img\]~s' */
	);

	// HTML tags to replace Shortcodes
	$replace = array(
    '$?',
    '$?'
 /* '<b>$1</b>',
		'<i>$1</i>',
		'<span style="text-decoration:underline;">$1</span>',
		'<pre>$1</'.'pre>',

		'<span style="color:$1;">$2</span>',
		'<a href="$1">$1</a>',
		'<img src="$1" alt="" />' */
	);

	// Replacing the BBcodes with corresponding HTML tags
	return preg_replace($find,$replace,$text);
}

// How to use the above function:

$shorttext = "This is [b]bold[/b] and this is [u]underlined[/u] and this is in [i]italics[/i] with a [color=red] red color[/color]";
$htmltext = disqusParser($shorttext);
echo $htmltext;

?>```

I would think you would store the raw text in the database, then call the function on the text on output to your page.

echo disqusParser($dbResult['text']);

Assuming $dbResult is an array fetched from your database, this will output parsed text to the page.

Depends on if you ever want to have people edit the text again. If not, parsing and storing the result is faster and a bit simpler.
