I have a website that display car/vehicle listings. Each listing displays the PRICE. The price is set as a custom field on a custom post type, that is set to a string data type. The user typically types the price in as like 8,999. I need to echo/output/display the data with the comma removed, like this: 8999

Currently I display the data like this:

<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "_price", true); ?>

How can I use str_replace to output this data without the comma? Or is there a simpler, better way? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    $price = get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_price', true ); echo str_replace( ',', '', $price ); would do it. Commented Aug 15, 2019 at 5:29

Literally just figured this out on my own by reviewing str_replace documentation again.

<?php
  $price_meta = get_post_meta($post->ID, "_price", true);
  $price_meta_stripped = str_replace(',', '', $price_meta);
  echo $price_meta_stripped;
?>
