Need some Help with Filtering out my Text

[Aaron Miller]

I have a screenshot here: http://prntscr.com/9sqct4
I want to remove everything that comes before “|” as well as the “|” itself. Or keep everything that has http:// and after.
I’m very new to notepad ++ and would love some help on this issue! Thank you :)

Hello Aaron-Miller

open replace dialog and put the following into find what:

(.+|)(?=http.*)

leave replace with empty.
Select Regular expression in Search mode and press replace all.
Keep a copy of the original data for safety ;-)

What it does is

.* look for every char until a | appears and if http follows, then make it a group
to be reported back (known as match).

As replace with hasn’t anything in it this group will be replacey with nothing.

Hope this makes sense.

Cheers
Claudia

Btw. I assume that | appears only once and directly before http

I do understand. It worked. Thank you so much Claudia!
