Don’t use output buffering. It is too slow and sometimes hard to debug. Use heredoc. Example: $output = <<<MYUNIQUENAME <div>$foo <p>Some $bar</p> </div> MYUNIQUENAME;
Add a static variable to the shortcode handler to check if the shortcode has been called already. Sample code add_shortcode( ‘wpse62826’, ‘wpse_62826_shortcode’ ); function wpse_62826_shortcode() { static $done = FALSE; // Nothing to do. if ( $done ) { return; } if ( is_singular() ) { $done = TRUE; } return ‘<b>I run once on … Read more
Use get_template_directory_uri() print get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/image.jpg’; In child themes use get_stylesheet_directory_uri() if you have replaced the image. In a shortcode this would look like this: <?php /* Plugin Name: Theme URI Shortcode */ add_shortcode(‘theme_uri’, ‘wpse_66026_theme_uri_shortcode’ ); function wpse_66026_theme_uri_shortcode( $attrs = array (), $content=”” ) { $theme_uri = is_child_theme() ? get_stylesheet_directory_uri() : get_template_directory_uri(); return trailingslashit( $theme_uri … Read more
