Remove link from post images

Question

When Upload images from Editor and publish the post, I see for all images have link. How can remove it

Answer 1

This should do the trick. The filter will check for images and removes the a (link) tag. Just add it to your theme's functions.php:

add_filter( 'the_content', 'attachment_image_link_remove_filter' );
 function attachment_image_link_remove_filter( $content ) {
  $content =
  preg_replace(
  array('{<a(.*?)(wp-att|wp-content/uploads)[^>]*><img}',
  '{ wp-image-[0-9]*" /></a>}'),
  array('<img','" />'),
  $content
  );
  return $content;
   }

Answer 2

I tried the above solution and it seemed to work but on viewing the source code I found stray link closing tags: </a>

I found this solution which works:

function attachment_image_link_remove_filter($content) {
    $content = 
        preg_replace(
            array('{<a[^>]*><img}', '{/></a>}'),
            array('<img', '/>'), 
            $content
        );
    return $content;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'attachment_image_link_remove_filter');

When inserting the image via the »Media Library« Modal, after clicking »Add Media«, select »None« for »Link To« under »Attachment Display Settings« section. To remove it for already linked images, click on the image and then press the »Remove link« button.
