Try this: <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[category_post_count category=’.$css_slug.’]’); ?> I’m not sure what you’re trying to do though? If you’re not doing this in actual content pages, you don’t need the shortcode. You could just do it all within the php page. Let me know if you need more info.
This is most likely due to the way your shortcode is constructed. PHP scripts are run on the server before (as) the HTML is generated. Try buffering your shortcode ouput like this: function my_function( $atts ) { ob_start(); // do some stuff $code_output = ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); return $code_output; } More info: https://secure.php.net/manual/en/book.outcontrol.php
Please try with this- /* * * Shortcode to display Post as links on Profile Pages * */ function imwz_golfs_list_function( $atts ) { if ( is_user_logged_in() ): global $current_user; wp_get_current_user(); $author_query = array(‘posts_per_page’ => ‘-1′,’author’ => $current_user->ID); $author_posts = new WP_Query($author_query); ob_start(); if($author_posts->have_posts()) : echo ‘<ul>’; while($author_posts->have_posts()) : $author_posts->the_post(); ?> <li><a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/295515/<?php the_permalink(); ?>” title=”<?php … Read more
The linked question shows you how to get all the shortcode tags in an array. So narrowing them down to specific ones is purely a PHP question. But the answer’s simple enough. Use array_filter() on the array of tags with a callback function that uses strpos() to see if each tag contains the work you’re … Read more
If you look at the source code of add_shortcode you will see this function doing little more than store the name of the shortcode in a global array. So, checking if a shortcode exists means looking it up in the array. Hence, if you want to check for a specific shortcode in the_content you must … Read more
No. The use of short code does not slow your website. It is just a function call. However, the code itself, may be slowing your website page load time. It depends upon the specific code that is executed.
I’m a little unclear from the question what exactly you’re trying to do. Is there multiple shortcodes per page? Are you on the page when you need to get the book id? If you’re on the page with the shortcode, then this function would return an array of book id’s: function book_id() { return preg_match_all( … Read more
Without knowing further details of your specific installation: Make sure you are actually previewing live on the web in a browser to see if the short-code actually is working. Make sure you have spelled the short-code correctly, and have the correct syntax. (See theme’s documentation.) If the short-code requires some special JavaScript library, often other … Read more
A shortcode should only ever return content, never echo it. The bits between the ?> and <?php tags — the <script> tags and the rest — are effectively being echoed to the browser, which means that the JSON content that Gutenberg expects is no longer valid. From the add_shortcode() docs: Note that the function called … Read more
The shortcode generation should output a string, so that should in theory be possible if you know and trust the shortcode’s output. But many shortcodes are generated with the front-end in mind and within the loop context, so the mail context might not always work though, if they depend on conditional checks like is_single(). There … Read more
