echo post-permalink without http and www

Question

I have this line …

<div class="permalink"><?php the_permalink(); ?></div>

and the result on my page looks like this …

http://mysite.com/whatever/post-or-so

I guess it could also look like this …

http://www.mysite.com/whatever/post-or-so

However I'd like to have just mysite.com/whatever/post-or-so without the http:// or www in front of it.

What is the best and easiest way to do so?

Don't get me wrong, this has nothing todo with rewriting permalinks or whatsoever. Just a simple echo of the_permalink() on my page that is not handled as link but as normal text. And in this case I would like to get rid of the http or www.

Answer 1

use get_permalink instead of the_permalink and manipulate it however you'd like via php.

Answer 2

<?php
    $find = 'http://';
    $replace = '';
    echo '<p>' . str_replace($find,$replace,get_permalink()) . '</p>';
?>
