I wanted to call the following shortcode in the wordpress page editor:
[pdfjs-viewer url=/wp-content/uploads/pdfs/[wpcf7_session_id]/vertrag.pdf viewer_width=100% viewer_height=1500px fullscreen=true fullscreen_text='Im Vollbildmodus anschauen' download=true print=true]
problem is the shortcode [wpcf7_session_id].
Any chance to call that somehow in the page editor?
Or do I need to call it in the backend in the php files? How can I do that?
Shortcodes do not automatically nest -- you have to call do_shortcode($content) yourself. See the caption_shortcode() example on http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API.

Since I've only started using Wordpress recently, I'm still trying to figure how to run PHP code prior to loading the template for a particular post.
I'm talking about code which would be executed in the contoller class in a MVC structure.
Obviously it's tempting to stuff it in the page's template file, but I'm sure this won't be exactly qualified as best practice.
Any suggestions on this matter? Many thanks.
The actions(list of executing) on front part WordPress:
muplugins_loaded
registered_taxonomy
registered_post_type
plugins_loaded
sanitize_comment_cookies
setup_theme
load_textdomain
after_setup_theme
auth_cookie_malformed
auth_cookie_valid
set_current_user
init
widgets_init
register_sidebar
wp_register_sidebar_widget
wp_default_scripts
wp_default_styles
admin_bar_init
add_admin_bar_menus
wp_loaded
parse_request
send_headers
parse_query
pre_get_posts
posts_clauses
posts_selection
wp
template_redirect
get_header
wp_head
wp_enqueue_scripts
wp_print_styles

get_search_form
loop_start
the_post
get_template_part_content
loop_end
get_sidebar

wp_footer

admin_bar_menu
wp_before_admin_bar_render
wp_after_admin_
bar_render

So, if You need some magic without all core functions, You can put your code into own mu-plugin for example, and it will execute on start(muplugins_loaded action).
For basic functionality and with theme functions - wp_loaded, etc. see the list above.
Usual, uses init action(cause WordPress is fully loaded, but without header and other stuff), example:
add_action( 'init', 'my_func' );
function my_func() {
// Write some code here...
}
I'm very new at wordpress and I'm trying to understand a code from a friend. I went to his wordpress account and edit some test page. However, the page has code inside [ ] tags. How can I edit it?
Here is an example from the wordpress wdit page:
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Test- #1 Business Communication App For Project Management & Task Management</strong></p>
<strong>Important Notice:</strong> If you accessed ....</strong></em>, in order for your account to be properly updated.
[register_form]
How can I open/edit the [register_form] code?
This is a shortcode from a plugin or from your theme.
Edit
You can edit it in your theme. If the shortcode is from a plugin, you can overwrite it in your functions.php
function say(){
return "Hello World";
}
add_shortcode( 'register_form', 'say' );
are the tags used to call a function of some plugin that you have active. that specific tag I do not recognize what plugin is, I recommend Contact Form 7, it is easy to use.
If you want to create a PHP function and use it on your page, create a plugin and declare the call as you want. But! Be careful as an error however small will damage your page.
for add tag on wordpress, from your plugin.
function NAME_FUNCTION(){...}
add_shortcode( 'NAME_FUNCTION', 'NAME_TAG' );
and call
[NAME_TAG]
I'm trying my make my first theme for wordpress.
Is there any possibility to create custom php page to display custom content?
Pretty much adding to WordPress another copy of the likes of single.php, post.php or 404.php.
All I want just a page to display the custom content on it.
Every tutorial I found so far uses just creating new page within WordPress.
I want to avoid it and for custom page to be enabled straight after theme activation.
The Idea is to have something like my_custom_page.php and to be able link to it after.
Is there any way of doing it?
Thanks
here is the solution to what I was looking for
http://kovshenin.com/2014/static-templates/
To achieve custom page functionality you can use page template concept of wordpress. Creating a page template is extremely easy. Create any new file in your theme and start the file with a comment block like so:
<?php
/*
Template Name: My Awesome Custom Page
*/
<h1>Hello There</h1>
You need paste php code inside this template file. When you submit for then redirection action will be page with custom template page.

I'm developing a plugin that creates custom wordpress pages, however I ran into a problem when trying to get shortcodes from other plugins to integrate into my plugin, well more like I couldn't find any info on it.
For example if someone uses my custom page builder and adds a short code [gallery] that is associated with an enabled plugin, I want the shortcode to do it's thing.
Could anyone point me in the right direction for this?
Try wordpress
http://wordpress.org/plugins/synved-shortcodes/
while this plugin let's you integrate shortcodes on every wordpress page , I suppose that you issue is with wordpress functions.php file where you can have a look at , with this plugin installed !
You can check if a shortcode exist before printing it with the function shortcode_exists() (https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/shortcode_exists)
Example:
<?php
if ( shortcode_exists( 'gallery' ) ) {
// The [gallery] short code exists.
}
?>
Then, if it exist and you want to print that shortcode with PHP code you should use do_shortcode() function (https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_shortcode/)
Example:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[gallery]); ?>
Always use in WordPress's in-built
the_content
hook to print your custom page content.
WordPress by default process all shortcodes before outputting any stuff from this hook.
More info can be found here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_content
I create a page in the model twentytwelve theme and I install the plugin cool video galery. my problem if I create it shows me the shortcode, not the video, how do I correct the problem?
Have you try to use do_shortcode function for using shortcode in Template.
So, Suppose if you short code is [cvg-gallery galleryId='gallery-id'] then wrap it with do_shotcode. Like
// Use shortcode in a PHP file (outside the post editor).
echo do_shortcode('[cvg-gallery galleryId='gallery-id']');
And then use it in template or in Lightbox.
