I have a few .html and .php pages in my custom wordpress plugin directory/files that I'm using to output styles JSON/jQuery data basically.
I am wondering how I could essentially wrap these modules in a short code and insert that short code in my Wordpress posts or pages via the Wordpress wysiwyg editor. i.e. [module 1]. I do not want to do this in the theme's files or /functions.php I want to add this functionality from my plugin files, any thoughts?
So, like a php include in the form of a wordpress short code, that works in Wordpress pages.
Here is what I'm trying; within my main plugin php file:
function my_form_shortcode() {
include dirname( __FILE__ ) . 'https://absolute.path.com/wp-content/plugins/my-plugin-v4/assets/files/2019/results/index.php';
}
add_shortcode( 'my_form_shortcode', 'my_form_shortcode' );
Within my Wordpress page, I do: (although, does not display/work)
[my_form_shortcode]
You can add your shortcode function the same way you would in your theme
add shortcode function in plugin
Simplest example of a shortcode tag using the API: [footag foo="bar"]
function footag_func( $atts ) {
return "foo = {$atts['foo']}";
}
add_shortcode( 'footag', 'footag_func' );
Example with nice attribute defaults: [bartag foo="bar"]
function bartag_func( $atts ) {
$atts = shortcode_atts( array(
'foo' => 'no foo',
'baz' => 'default baz'
), $atts, 'bartag' );
return "foo = {$atts['foo']}";
}
add_shortcode( 'bartag', 'bartag_func' );
Example with enclosed content: [baztag]content[/baztag]
function baztag_func( $atts, $content = "" ) {
return "content = $content";
}
add_shortcode( 'baztag', 'baztag_func' );
If your plugin is designed as a class write as follows:
class MyPlugin {
public static function baztag_func( $atts, $content = "" ) {
return "content = $content";
}
}
add_shortcode( 'baztag', array( 'MyPlugin', 'baztag_func' ) );

I've tried everything I can think of. the title spits out at the top of the content wrapper and the html tags stay where they should.
I'm performing this shortcode from a page. I need the title and perma link to an image in the media library so that I can spit out html to show it on a page via shortcode
add_shortcode( 'ispimg', 'isp_gallery_item' );
function isp_gallery_item( $atts ) {
// Attributes
$a = shortcode_atts( array(
'id' => '',
), $atts );
$isp_post_id = get_post($a['id']);
setup_postdata($isp_post_id);
$pt = the_title();
return "<h3>".$pt."</h3>";
wp_reset_postdata();
}
Not totally sure if this is your issue, but I suggest you not to mess with the main query, you may be affecting other parts of your page because of that.
Use the API functions like get_the_title() instead:
function isp_gallery_item( $atts ) {
// Attributes
$a = shortcode_atts( array(
'id' => '',
), $atts );
return sprintf( '<h3>%s</h3>', get_the_title( $a['id'] ) );
}
add_shortcode( 'ispimg', 'isp_gallery_item' );
Or in case you need the loop, take a look at the WP_Query class.
I am trying to echo visual composer shortcodes onto a page.
I've tried both methods below, but they don't work:
functions.php:
Method 1
/*
* add shortcode file
*/
function include_file($atts) {
$a = shortcode_atts( array(
'slug' => 'NULL',
), $atts );
if($slug != 'NULL'){
ob_start();
get_template_part($a['slug']);
return ob_get_clean();
}
}
add_shortcode('include', 'include_file');
Method 2
function someshortocode_callback( $atts = array(), $content = null ) {
$output = "[vc_section full_width=\"stretch_row\" css=\".vc_custom_1499155244783{padding-top: 8vh !important;padding-bottom: 5vh !important;background-color: #f7f7f7 !important;}\"][vc_row 0=\"\"][vc_column offset=\"vc_col-lg-offset-3 vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-offset-3 vc_col-md-6\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]";
return $output;
}
add_shortcode('someshortocode', 'someshortocode_callback');
file_rendering_vc_shortcodes.php:
Method 1
<?php if ( is_plugin_active( 'js_composer/js_composer.php' ) ) {
wc_print_notice('js_composer plugin ACTIVE', 'notice');
echo do_shortcode('[include slug="vc_templates/shop-page"]');
}; ?>
Result
js_composer plugin ACTIVE
shortcode is on page with parentheses as is
Method 2
<?php $post = get_post();
if ( $post && preg_match( '/vc_row/', $post->post_content ) ) {
// Visual composer works on current page/post
wc_print_notice('VC ON', 'notice');
echo add_shortcode('someshortocode', 'someshortocode_callback');
} else {
wc_print_notice('VC OFF', 'notice');
//echo do_shortcode('[include slug="vc_templates/shop-page"]');
}; ?>
Result
VC OFF (obviously, since the vc_row in shortcode is not there)
shortcode is NOT on page
shop-page.php
<?php
/**
Template Name: Shop Page in theme
Preview Image: #
Descriptions: #
* [vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row]
*/
?>
[vc_section full_width="stretch_row" css=".vc_custom_1499155244783{padding-top: 8vh !important;padding-bottom: 5vh !important;background-color: #f7f7f7 !important;}"][vc_row 0=""][vc_column offset="vc_col-lg-offset-3 vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-offset-3 vc_col-md-6"][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]
Is it possible to render vc shortcodes on page, and if so, how is it done?
Use the:
WPBMap::addAllMappedShortcodes();
then as usual do_shortcode($content);
In short, page builder due to performance doesn't register shortcodes unless it isn't required.
If your element is registered by vc_map or vc_lean_map then no need to use add_shortcode function, you can do everything just by using WPBMap::addAllMappedShortcodes(); it is will call an shortcode class callback during the rendering process and then shortcode template.
Regarding Method 2.
You have to use do_shortcode() in your shortcode function.
function someshortocode_callback( $atts = array(), $content = null ) {
$output = '[vc_section full_width="stretch_row" css=".vc_custom_1499155244783{padding-top: 8vh !important;padding-bottom: 5vh !important;background-color: #f7f7f7 !important;}"][vc_row 0=""][vc_column offset="vc_col-lg-offset-3 vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-offset-3 vc_col-md-6"]column text[/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]';
return do_shortcode( $output );
}
add_shortcode( 'someshortocode', 'someshortocode_callback' );
Working example on my test site: http://test.kagg.eu/46083958-2/
Page contains only [someshortocode]. Code above is added to functions.php.
In your code for Method 2 there is another error: line
echo add_shortcode('someshortocode', 'someshortocode_callback');
cannot work, as add_shortcode() returns nothing. This code should be as follows:
<?php $post = get_post();
if ( $post && preg_match( '/vc_row/', $post->post_content ) ) {
// Visual composer works on current page/post
wc_print_notice('VC ON', 'notice');
} else {
wc_print_notice('VC OFF', 'notice');
add_shortcode('someshortocode', 'someshortocode_callback');
echo do_shortcode('[someshortocode]');
}; ?>
I want to see if him doing this code correctly to developed a custom shortcode for contact form want to create for my website.
I have looked at wp codex want to use class so I came up with this code to if this would work.
<?php
class MyPlugin {
// Conact Form shortcode
public static function allb_contact_form( $atts, $content = " " ) {
//[contact_form]
//get the attribute_escape
$atts = shortcode_atts(
array(),
$atts,
'contact_form'
);
//return HTML
ob_start();
include 'lib/inc/thmeplates/contact-form.php';
return ob_get_clean();
}
}
add_shortcode( 'contact_form', array( $this , 'allb_contact_form' ) );
But it doesn't give me error messages that says. One guy told me to put the add_shortcode( 'contact_form', array( $this , 'allb_contact_form' ) ); at the outside of code.
If you are intent on using a class, wherever you are declaring your plugin add
$myplugin = new MyPlugin();
add_shortcode( 'contact_form', [ $myplugin , 'allb_contact_form' ] );
And remove that add_shortcode from the class. It's not even valid code laying there.
I've created a theme from scratch and I have issues creating shortcodes. I have the following code:
functions.php
function caption_shortcode( $atts, $content = null ) {
return '<span class="caption">' . $content . '</span>';
}
add_shortcode( 'caption', 'caption_shortcode' );
in the WP Admin page editor:
[caption]My Caption[/caption]
on the page template page:
echo do_shortcode('[caption]');
The shortcode seems to be somehow working as it returns the HTML but not the $content.
My problem is that I can't seem to get my hand on the $content and display it using the shortcode. Any idea why this is happening?
P.S. I don't want to use the_content() function to display all the content, I want to use the shortcodes to divide the content the user adds in several pop-ups and child sections of the page.
Thanks!
Make sure you user shotcode same page
// [baztag]content[/baztag]
function baztag_func( $atts, $content = '' ) {
return $content;
}
add_shortcode( 'baztag', 'baztag_func' );
echo do_shortcode('[baztag]');
I'm trying to use a widget within a plugin in wordpress and I'm seeing this error within the widget box:
Warning: extract() [function.extract]: First argument should be an array in /nfs/c03/h04/mnt/57957/domains/rab.qbessi.com/html/wp-content/plugins/register-plus/dash_widget.php on line 24
This is the code from Line 24:
// Output the widget contents
function widget( $args ) {
extract( $args, EXTR_SKIP );
Here's the dash_widget.php code
<?php
if( !class_exists('RegisterPlusWidget') ){
class RegisterPlusWidget{
function RegisterPlusWidget() { //contructor
// Add the widget to the dashboard
add_action( 'wp_dashboard_setup', array($this, 'register_widget') );
add_filter( 'wp_dashboard_widgets', array($this, 'add_widget') );
}
function register_widget() {
wp_register_sidebar_widget( 'regplus_invite_tracking', __( 'Invitation Code Tracking', 'regplus' ), array($this, 'widget'), array( 'settings' => 'options-general.php?page=register-plus' ) );
}
// Modifies the array of dashboard widgets and adds this plugin's
function add_widget( $widgets ) {
global $wp_registered_widgets;
if ( !isset($wp_registered_widgets['regplus_invite_tracking']) ) return $widgets;
array_splice( $widgets, 2, 0, 'regplus_invite_tracking' );
return $widgets;
}
// Output the widget contents
function widget( $args ) {
extract( $args, EXTR_SKIP );
echo $before_widget;
echo $before_title;
echo $widget_name;
echo $after_title;
global $wpdb;
$regplus = get_option( 'register_plus' );
$codes = $regplus['codepass'];
$usercodes = array();
foreach($codes as $code){
$users = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT user_id FROM $wpdb->usermeta WHERE meta_key='invite_code' AND meta_value='$code'" );
echo '<h3>' . $code . ': <small style="font-weight:normal">' . count($users) . ' Users Registered.</small></h3>';
}
echo $after_widget;
}
}
} # End Class RegisterPlusWidget
// Start this plugin once all other plugins are fully loaded
add_action( 'plugins_loaded', create_function( '', 'global $regplus_widget; $regplus_widget = new RegisterPlusWidget();' ) );
?>
The widget() function is being called with no parameters. Why, is hard to tell without digging deeply into the plugin. You should ask the plugin's author.
You can try adding
// Output the widget contents
function widget( $args ) {
if (is_array($args)) // Add this
extract( $args, EXTR_SKIP );
and see whether the output still makes sense then. That effectively just suppresses the action that causes the warning. If it's a badly programmed plugin that was developed with warnings turned off, that already may do the trick.
google launched new plugin called site kit, it will make analyzing work much more easier.
