So this turned out to be the problem: After running using WP_DEBUG on the live site it turned out $this was not defined in the following line: public function __construct(){ add_action(‘init’, function(){ add_shortcode(‘bbit’, array($this, ‘shortcode_handler’)); }); } shortcode_handler is a non-static function here, and this code was all called in a static context. It seems … Read more
The output from a shortcode should be returned, not echoed. Echoing output in a shortcode will have unexpected output like you are seeing. the_widget() echos its output which is causing the issue. Unfortunately there is no similar function for returning the wdget output. Luckily you can make use of a output buffer to overcome this … Read more
Use a double third brackets then. In visual editor: [[my-shortcode]] To show shortcode as a code, in HTML/Text mode: <code>[[my-shortcode]]</code> And you can even write anything with a third bracket in this way: Do something [[once]] and go… *suggested by SergeyBiryukov
@see https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/do_shortcode Searches content for shortcodes and filters shortcodes through their hooks: echo do_shortcode( get_post_meta( THE_ID_OF_YOUR_POST, THE_NAME_OF_YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD, true ) );
Use Output buffering for the best result of shortcode, especially when you are outputting some HTML in it: function f_girl_shortcode( $atts , $content = null ) { ob_start(); ?> <div class=”talk girl”><?php echo do_shortcode($content); ?></div> <?php return ob_get_clean(); } add_shortcode( ‘talk-girl’, ‘f_girl_shortcode’ ); and function p_generic_shortcode( $atts , $content = null ) { ob_start(); ?> … Read more
I haven’t tested this but based on memory, you are misunderstanding how shortcodes work. The “content” isn’t passed through the callback the way you seem to expect it to be. The content is extracted from the post body via a preg_* function. That, if my memory serves, is going to give you “content” as a … Read more
Before we start may I just quickly mention that for the future it is easier to reference the post by its ID instead of the URL as this is going to stay the same when slugs change. Anyway as you already have this shortcode now we need another solution. Your problem is that you need … Read more
Try removing the brackets and adding the full url: $url=”http://theurl.com”; And for clarity, it’s best to use different names for the tag and function name: add_shortcode(‘aggrenda’, ‘aggrenda_func’); function aggrenda_func() { $url=”http://theurl.com”; $response = wp_remote_get( $url ); echo($response); }
It should work <?php $my_postid = 1772;//This is page id or post id $content_post = get_post($my_postid); $content = $content_post->post_content; $content = apply_filters(‘the_content’, $content); $content = str_replace(‘]]>’, ‘]]>’, $content); echo $content; ?>
Hooks are only available when you see apply_filters, apply_filters_ref_array, do_action, and do_action_ref_array. They are all basically handled the same way but have some small differences like filters always expecting a returned value. e.g.: // seeing this in some WordPress code $the_content = apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $the_content ); // means you can then use something like this … Read more
