_e() echoes the translated string, which will not work in variable assignment. You need to use __(), which returns the translated string.
That is not the way you add an object method as a callback. function make_shortcode() { add_shortcode(‘ShowMsg’, array($this,’ShowMsg’)); } This is explained in the Codex as it pertains to actions and filters, but the principle is the same. I should add that anonymous classes make for painful debugging. Instantiate that class to a variable. It … Read more
put the remove filter to be called first like this, change your span to div or you will have issues with some browsers: remove_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wpautop’ ); add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wpautop’ , 12); function twoColPostcardfn($atts, $content){ extract(shortcode_atts(array( ‘image’=>”, ‘text’=>”, ‘title’=>”, ‘boxlink’=>”, ‘float’=>” ), $atts)); $bob='<div class=”twoColPostcard “>’.$content.'</div>’; return $bob; } add_shortcode( ‘twoColPostcard’, ‘twoColPostcardfn’ ); or change … Read more
That’s because your list is printed immediately. wp_list_pages() has the echo parameter, which is true by default. Make it false like here: <?php function roofspan_product_childpages() { $list_p = array( ‘sort_column’ => ‘menu_order, post_title’, ‘child_of’ => ’12’, ‘title_li’ => ‘Products: ‘, ‘echo’ => 0 // Note this ); return wp_list_pages( $list_p ); } add_shortcode( ‘product_childpages’, ‘roofspan_product_childpages’ … Read more
The <br /> tags are being added to the content by the wpautop() function. If you run your shortcode before it runs they will not be there. It is added in \wp-includes\default-filters.php with the default priority of 10. add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘myshortcode’, 1 ); function myshortcode( $atts, $content = null ) { return $content; } wpautop() … Read more
Page is created and output in the following order: header, content, footer. Shorcode is executed during the construction of the page content, when header is already output on the page. So, it is impossible to add any script to header on this stage: it is too late.
Shortcode callback should return it’s output and not echo it. Something like this should work just fine: function get_loggedin_avatar (){ global $current_user; $result=””; if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { get_currentuserinfo(); $result=”<a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/myaccount”>”. get_avatar( $current_user->ID, 96, left ). ‘</a>’; } return $result; } add_shortcode( ‘loggedinavatar’, ‘get_loggedin_avatar’ );
As birgire mentioned in the comments, “you’re missing the return part” to which you replied “how do I add that without escaping the HTML code?” EDIT: Just a clarification. Your code should have worked, as pointed out by dswebsme. I just tested with and without a return, and both work (although returning would be preferred). … Read more
The contents of a shortcode should always be returned rather than echoed. You can read more about shortcode output on the Codex. A while ago, I asked a question about “How to Return Loop Contents” that might prove useful in this situation.
Having stumbled across this (really late), here is the answer as posted on the wordpress forum by MichaelH: <?php global $shortcode_tags; echo “<pre>”; print_r($shortcode_tags); echo “</pre>”; ?> Putting it here so anyone searching here might find it.
