How to remove_query_arg() for paginate_links()

Question

I implemented a pagination using paginate_links() like below:

<?php
function wpse229670_pagination( $query = false ) {
    global $wp_query;
    $query = $query ? $query : $wp_query;

    $total_pages = $query->max_num_pages;
    $big = 999999999;
    if ( $total_pages > 1 ) {
        echo '<nav class="navigation posts-navigation" role="navigation">';
            echo '<strong>'. __( 'Pages:', 'text-domain' ) .'</strong> ';
            echo paginate_links( array(
                        'base' => ,
                        'format' => '?paged=%#%',
                        'current' => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ),
                        'total' => $total_pages
                    ) );
        echo '</nav>';

    } //endif ( $total_pages > 1 )

}

And I can easily display my pagination using wpse229670_pagination(); within loop, or for any custom loop, I can pass the local query as a parameter.

It's working fine.

Scenario is, I'm adding some query args like this to display a modal warning to the user:

$terms = wp_get_post_terms( $post_id, 'my_tax' );
$term_link = get_term_link( $term_id, 'my_tax' );
$parameterized_url = add_query_arg( 'from_expired', 1, $term_link );

wp_redirect($parameterized_url);
exit;

But the pagination links continue to display the warning, as because I cannot remove_query_arg() from the query and the following pages contains the argument as well.

I think it would be better if I can remove necessary [one time] query_args inside my pagination function. You know I cannot do:

//$query = remove_query_arg( 'from_expired', $query );

because $query inside my function is an object.

So, how can I remove_query_arg() from a $wp_query object or from paginate_links()?

Answer 1

Not sure if you mean this kind of approach:

add_filter( 'paginate_links', function( $link )
{
    return  
       filter_input( INPUT_GET, 'from_expired' )
       ? remove_query_arg( 'from_expired', $link )
       : $link;
} );

to remove the from_expired from the pagination links if it's in the current GET query.
