Your issues aren’t shortcode-related, just some PHP syntax problems. I suggest enabling debugging so you can see PHP errors being generated. Opening <?php and closing ?> php tags are for switching between html and php output. See escaping from html in PHP documentation. A function can only return once, as it immediately ends execution and … Read more
I am not sure about your error as well, but one thing you are doing wrong. Returning data. You should be ‘collecting’ them and then returning. $data=””; foreach ( $results as $result ) { $data .= ‘ Point: ‘.$result.’ ‘; } return $data; Try this loop.
You can try this plugin: /** * Plugin Name: My Boxes Shortcode * Author: birgire * Author URI: http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/121423/26350 */ add_action( ‘plugins_loaded’, array( ‘My_Boxes_Shortcode’, ‘get_instance’ ) ); if( ! class_exists( ‘My_Boxes_Shortcode’ ) ) { class My_Boxes_Shortcode { static private $instance = NULL; static public function get_instance() { if ( NULL === self::$instance ) self::$instance = … Read more
You cannot print an array directly. The most basic return value you could use is var_export( $meta_values, TRUE );. This will create a text representation of the value. Probably better is a little walker like $output=””; foreach( $meta_values as $key => $value ) $output .= “$key = ” . esc_html( end( $value ) ) . … Read more
The second parameter of this function (the_widget) is an array with some arguments that defines what are the variables of this instance of the Widget, when you are outside of a Sidebar “loop”, you have to pass those manually, instead of getting them from the database. I’ve found the GitHub Repo for this plugin, and … Read more
That is a very broken Loop. The results of a new WP_Query is not a simple array that you can foreach over. It is far more complicated than that. Try var_dump($work_galleries);. Fortunately, WP_Query provides methods to make looping easy. $work_galleries = new WP_Query($args); if ($work_galleries->have_posts()) { while ($work_galleries->have_posts()) { // this replaces foreach $work_galleries->the_post(); // … Read more
you’re using name=”name” for your first input. That breaks it. Change the name to something else as suggested above, prefix everything. name=”my-prefix-name”
I will never understand the point of these wildly complicated “helper” wrapper/plugins… but that aside… The plugin provides a lot of filters that might help you out. I think that the types_view filter might be what you want. Something like this is a plugin file or your theme functions.php might do it: add_filter(‘types_view’,’do_shortcode’); I do … Read more
Your issue with output is because you are using versions of template tags that immediately output the result when called, rather than return it to be concatenated with the string. For example the_permalink() as opposed to get_permalink().
It looks like the Video Embed & Thumbnail Generator already does what you are looking for.
