The basics of creating a shortcode are quite simple. You just need to create a function that returns the code you want to output in a string and register that function: function wpse_143641_homebox_shortcode( $atts ) { return <<<HOMEBOX <div class=”homebx01 clearfix ani-1″> <div class=”homebxhead clearfix”> <div class=”bxicon homebxicon01″></div> <div class=”bxheadtxt”>Category name</strong></div> </div> <div class=”cl”></div> <div … Read more
Your issue is in the callable object you add: array( __CLASS__, “build_shortcode”) This translates to: array( “WC_Product_Categories”, “build_shortcode”) Which is equivalent to: WC_Product_Categories::build_shortcode(); But build_shortcode is not a static function/method, and static functions/methods do not have a $this object, because there is no object associated. What you actually want is: array( $this, ‘build_shortcode’ ) Which … Read more
Run the Shortcode through do_shortcode and check what the output contains. $shortcode_content = do_shortcode( ‘[ninja_forms_field id=84]’ );
I can’t comment yet – So I will do my best for providing an answer until i get enough rep – function add_my_shortcode(){ $content = “Habba”; return $content; } add_shortcode(‘yourShortcodeName’, ‘add_my_shortcode’); I have been doing it like this for a long time, and never had any problems – have you written this code in a … Read more
Shortcodes should not echo any output. They should always return the text that is to be used to replace the shortcode. You either write the html code on a variable: function my_shortcode() { $output=”<div>something</div>”; return $output; } Or you can use php output buffering: function my_shortcode() { ob_start(); ?> <div>something</div> <?php return ob_get_clean(); } In … Read more
There is nothing wrong with your code when it comes to attributes (except maybe that having $attts and $atts makes the code much harder to read than it needs to be). I reduced your code to this test case: function display($atts){ ob_start(); $attts = shortcode_atts( array( ‘id’ => ‘2’, ), $atts, ‘Adds’ ); echo $attts[‘id’]; … Read more
It’s not displayed as table, because you don’t return correct HTML code. Let’s take a look at your code (I’ve put comments at end of incorrect lines): $content=”<table>”; $content .= ‘</tr><th>Week Beginning</th><th>Monday</th><th>Tuesday</th><th>Wednesday</th><th>Thursday</th><th>Friday</th><th>Saturday</th><th>Sunday</th><th>Weekly Total</th><th>Previous Week Totals</th></tr>’; // <- here you open TR with </tr>, so it’s already incorrect $results = $seconddb->get_results( ‘ SELECT * FROM seconddb_PontoonBoats_LineOne_2Log’ … Read more
I have good news: the answer is simple. The WordPress Codex concerning Enclosing Shortcodes (like the one you posted here) shows that the shortcode callback has 2 arguments, $atts and $content. You want to work with $content: function wporg_shortcode($atts = [], $content = null) { // do something to $content // always return return $content; … Read more
Just add this to your child theme’s functions.php file: add_shortcode( ‘output_post_excerpt’, ‘get_the_excerpt’ ); Then use [output_post_excerpt]
get_template_part doesn’t return its value, it outputs it, which is how it would normally be used. Think of it this way, how would it know wether to echo the template or return it? So instead, we use output buffers to catch the output and flush it to a variable, e.g.: ob_start( ); echo “test”; $output … Read more
