If a child theme does not have a file (i.e. page.php), WordPress looks in the parent theme for that file.

In foreach, you need to use setup_postdata() and it also needs to be reset properly. Please check following. add_shortcode( ‘custom-home-posts’, function ( $atts ) { … Read more
You haven’t properly output them. You’ve closed the PHP tags after this: ), $atts));?> But, if you want to output a PHP variable you need to open them again, otherwise the text will just be interpreted as HTML. You also need to explicitly echo it. So, for $catheading as an example, you need to output … Read more
If you have a shortcode string saved, try echoing it with do_shortcode function, which turns shortcodes into content. $saved_shortcode = get_option( ‘my_customizer’, ‘copyright’ ); if ( $saved_shortcode && is_string( $saved_shortcode ) ) { echo do_shortcode( $saved_shortcode ); } More about the function on the developer handbook, https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_shortcode/ EDIT Another option is just echo the year … Read more
In order to change the shortcode value by leveraging ajax, you need to modify the PHP code and jQuery as mentioned below: function table_generator() { // Set product providers $providers = array( ‘Provider 1’, ‘Provider 2’, ‘Provider 3’, ); // Build provider selection form $output .= ‘<form id=”submitProvider” action=”” method=”POST”>’; $output .= ‘<select name=”provider_list”>’; $output … Read more
