For example: My phrases are [$IMAGE ID="1"], [$URL ID="1"] or [$SIGNATURE] (without ID)

How can I get each the NAME after $ and optional the ID after ID="?
And how do I replace each NAMEPLACEHOLDER (with ID) with my replaceNAMEPLACEHOLDER($id) function?

Question duplicated http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10458103/how-to-make-php-bb-codes-with-regexp – Vinicius Monteiro Jan 21 '14 at 11:32
Not really. This is not a typical BB-Code. – zerophreak Jan 21 '14 at 11:33
You want to catch the "$" to "="? – Vinicius Monteiro Jan 21 '14 at 11:35
No, I actually just used $ in front of the NAME as unique identification because my content may contain [pla pla pla] so I don't want to replace [pla pla pla], just [$NAME] or [$NAME ID="1"]. but I need to get the ID of $NAME – zerophreak Jan 21 '14 at 11:37
Can you explain better what you want to replace? Post a example. – Vinicius Monteiro Jan 21 '14 at 11:50
_“Not really. This is not a typical BB-Code.”_ – it’s still “typical”, simple regex. So if you don’t have any basic knowledge about those, go get some first. – CBroe Jan 21 '14 at 11:50
Yeah sorry. It might be not duplicated but the first "duplicated" link was helpful enough for me. Thanks! – zerophreak Jan 21 '14 at 12:03
