In general, you can do any shortcode with do_shortcode() (see codex). But if they have a template function available, its probably best to use that. echo do_shortcode(‘[events_calendar]’);
You are returning the result of calling include. You want to grab the output of the included file and return than instead. Use output buffering to do that. function build_total_search_method( $atts ) { ob_start(); include( dirname(__FILE__) . “/includes/total_search.php” ); $shorcode_php_function = ob_get_clean(); return $shorcode_php_function; } add_shortcode( ‘total_search’, ‘build_total_search_method’ );
Convert the items in the shortcode into an array, and return a list: add_shortcode( ‘features_list’, ‘shortcode_features_list’ ); function shortcode_features_list( $atts = array(), $content=”” ) { $content = trim( $content ); if ( ” === $content ) return; $items = explode( “\n”, $content ); $items = array_map( ‘trim’, $items ); return ‘<ul class=”features”><li>’ . join( ‘</li><li>’, … Read more
You did not explain your question well so I am guessing quite a bit but I think you want something like this: function post_ids_wpse() { global $wp_query; $ids = wp_list_pluck($wp_query->posts,’ID’); $scs=””; foreach ($ids as $id) { $scs .= “[wp_value id='{$id}’]”; } echo do_shortcode($scs); } That is very crude. You should check that the various values … Read more
Parsing shortcodes from strings WordPress parses and replaces shortcodes from a piece of content via the do_shortcode function. This function, in turn, calls get_shortcode_regex, which returns the regular expression for matching shortcodes in a string. Using this function, we can get a list of all shortcodes ourselves: $pattern = get_shortcode_regex(); preg_match_all( “/$pattern/s”, $content, $matches ); … Read more
You can not execute functions inside the do_shortcode() call like you are trying to. If you are just trying to wrap your post meta content with the shortcode, then you can do it like shown below. $your_post_meta_variable_content = get_post_meta( $postid, principal_1, true ); echo do_shortcode( ‘[learn_more caption=”ancila”]’ . $your_post_meta_variable_content . ‘[/learn_more]’ );
There are number of ways to do it. The specific one for your case is that you have to find the function which that shortcode “calls”. For this, you can download your theme and plugin files and search add_shortcode or better product_categories(your shortcode name) term in all files using some notepad software. Notepad++ has a … Read more
Wrap your shortcode in a div and give it an ID that you can use as a target when triggering your popup.

See this answer: How to get shortcode to work inside a foreach loop called within a shortcode? You’ll likely want apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $footer_post->post_content ) And so, in your case: $footer_content = apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $footer_post->post_content ); echo $footer_content;
Your short code function receives the attributes as the first argument: function shortcode_function( $attributes ) { Here $attributes is an array, and the attributes/values are inside that variable, e.g. for [my-shortcode abc=”123″ xyz=”789″]: echo $attributes[‘abc’]; // prints 123 echo $attributes[‘xyz’]; // prints 789 You should also provide defaults and an opportunity to filter: $attributes = … Read more
