I am trying to use the content to signify which template_part code to load on my page. For example, if the content == "volume" I want to load get_template_part('lib/volume');
<?php
$content = get_the_content();
$content = strip_tags($content);
$content = html_entity_decode($content);
$content = filter_var($content, FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
get_template_part('lib/'.$content);
?>
This is the code in my template, however it doesn't load the desired template part.
You can strip all html tags with using wp_strip_all_tags() to get only the content. strip_tags() won't help you get rid of comments and wordpress gives us the great function to also delete the script and style.
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_strip_all_tags/
So you can use one line of code to get a clean content:
$content = wp_strip_all_tags( get_the_content() );
Maybe this is the reason. Have you tried so display the value of $content to make sure you have the string you want to have? If it outputs the string the right way, there might be a problem with the get_template_part() function.
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_template_part/
You can try putting the string together, before using in the function:
$content = wp_strip_all_tags( get_the_content() );
$content = "lib/".$content;
get_template_part( $content );
If this is not working, check the name of the folder lib (has to be subfolder in the root of your theme folder) and the name of your php files. It could also be possible that there is something wrong with the template part file and that is the reason it is not loaded. Next check the page template inside of which you are trying to get the template part.
If nothing helps you out, it could be an alternative using include() instead of get_template_part().

I have visual composer which is packed with total theme. When I put the following grid short code in my page in the editor it works correctly.
[vc_basic_grid post_type="post_type" max_items="10" item="masonryGrid_SlideFromLeft" grid_id="vc_gid:1458178666639-80ebf3775500c87d35de078c3422fe96-10" taxonomies="555"]
However, when I call the exact same code using do_action it gives the following javascript error. I checked the html output and it is the same using do_action like putting the short code in editor.
Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: {'status':'Nothing found'}

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Well, you can't output contents directly in your templates by using core shortcodes of VC like that.
1. Problem:
For security, besides nonce, VC uses page_id and shortcode_id to check AJAX request/respond data.
The shortcode_id is automatically generated by VC, you can not harcode it.
For example, this is the shortcode you see on admin editor screen:
[vc_basic_grid post_type="post_type" max_items="10" item="masonryGrid_SlideFromLeft" grid_id="vc_gid:1458178666639-80ebf3775500c87d35de078c3422fe96-10" taxonomies="555"]
Let say the page ID is 4269, this is the generated HTML code on front-end:
<!-- vc_grid start -->
<div class="vc_grid-container-wrapper vc_clearfix">
<div class="vc_grid-container vc_clearfix wpb_content_element vc_masonry_grid" data-initial-loading-animation="zoomIn" data-vc-grid-settings="{"page_id":4269,"style":"all-masonry","action":"vc_get_vc_grid_data","shortcode_id":"1458178666639-80ebf3775500c87d35de078c3422fe96-10","tag":"vc_masonry_grid"}" data-vc-request="http://example.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php" data-vc-post-id="4269" data-vc-public-nonce="0641473b09">
</div>
</div>
<!-- vc_grid end -->
Now, if page_id and shortcode_id don't match each other, {'status':'Nothing found - $shorcode_id'} will be throw out and no contents will be displayed.
You can find out more inside vc_grid.min.js file.
2. Solution:
Generate a fake page with VC, then copy generated html code to your template file.
Create a template with VC directly.
Use Shorcode Mapper to create your own shorcode.
First you build a new page and add a grid post on it,
then we get
_vc_post_settings
post meta , and try to build a new one
then update post meta data
now we can by pass VC Ajax security check
in the following code "1513628284966-37b8c3ca-d8ec-1" is VC generated guid
you should change it to yours .
$meta = get_post_meta(1365,'_vc_post_settings');
$settings = array();
#$settings['vc_grid_id'] = $meta[0]['vc_grid_id'];
$key = random_int(1513628284966,9513628284966);
$settings['vc_grid_id']['shortcodes'][''.$key.'-37b8c3ca-d8ec-1'] = $meta[0]['vc_grid_id']['shortcodes']['1513628284966-37b8c3ca-d8ec-1'];
$settings['vc_grid_id']['shortcodes'][''.$key.'-37b8c3ca-d8ec-1']['atts']['custom_query'] = "tag=shop";
$settings['vc_grid_id']['shortcodes'][''.$key.'-37b8c3ca-d8ec-1']['atts']['grid_id'] = ''.$key.'-37b8c3ca-d8ec-1';
$n = add_post_meta(1365,'_vc_post_settings',$settings);
return do_shortcode("[vc_basic_grid post_type=\"custom\" show_filter=\"yes\" filter_style=\"dropdown\" item=\"5959\" grid_id=\"vc_gid:".$key."-37b8c3ca-d8ec-1\" filter_source=\"post_tag\" custom_query='tag=".$tag."']");
I've solved.
I had the same problems, with the Visual Composer Editor offered by WpBakery
https://wpbakery.com/
and after understanding the connection between the IDs of the block, and the ID of the Post, I put more attention to the settings of the Block.
There is infact one field called "Element ID", and here we have to put our ID of the Post we are editing.
In my case the Block was a block containing some Posts.
After saving, and viewing the page without the Editor, I was finally able to see the block, and not the message
{"status":"Nothing found"}
I found a solution to this problem.
I modified the woocommerce category template and linked to the woocommerce_archive_description hook to add additional descriptions from some pages, for this I got their id, and then display the content.
echo do_shortcode($post->post_content);
The gallery(media grid) didn't work because there was a mismatch between the page id and the shortcode id. Therefore, the logical solution was to redefine the global variable $post to the $post of the page from which I get the content.
global $post;
$post = get_post( $id );
And it turns out that the post id matches.
After that, don't forget to return the normal $post value;
wp_reset_postdata();
By the way - use this option to load custom styles for wpbakery elements.
echo '<style type="text/css" data-type="vc_shortcodes-custom-css">' . get_post_meta( $id, '_wpb_shortcodes_custom_css', true ) . '</style>';
The whole code
function extra_product_category_desc(){
if( is_product_category() ){
$id = get_term_meta (get_queried_object()->term_id, 'pageId', true);
if($id !== ''){
global $post;
$post = get_post( $id );
echo do_shortcode($post->post_content);
echo '<style type="text/css" data-type="vc_shortcodes-custom-css">' . get_post_meta( $id, '_wpb_shortcodes_custom_css', true ) . '</style>';
wp_reset_postdata();
}
}
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_archive_description', 'extra_product_category_desc', 11 );
You may also try with do_shortcode('');
Like
do_shortcode('[vc_basic_grid post_type="post_type" max_items="10" item="masonryGrid_SlideFromLeft" grid_id="vc_gid:1458178666639-80ebf3775500c87d35de078c3422fe96-10" taxonomies="555"]');
Best Regards,
I am trying to make wordpress load a specific static php file(not a page template) for wordpress pages.
For example, for the contact page i would like to load the already done contact.php.
I tried adding in functions.php something like:
if( is_page('careers')){
get_page('careers.php');
}
or
function get_pages() {
if(is_page('careers')) {
return get_template_uri() . '/careers.php';
}
}
What am I missing?
EDIT: I've managed to load the pages by renaming them to page-careers.php, page-contact.php, and so on.
I tried your solutions but I had no success.
Try this for include PHP file
<?php include(ABSPATH . "banner.php"); ?>
And get another page content
$my_id = 5369;
$post_id_5369 = get_post($my_id);
$content = $post_id_5369->post_content;
$content = apply_filters('the_content', $content);
$content = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $content);
echo $content;
Get template part is usually used for retrieving template files like you are trying to do. See more here: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_template_part/
So, for example in your code above, if you had a file called contact.php in your theme folder that you wanted to include, you could use the following code:
get_template_part( 'contact' );
Almost sure that I'm not the first one that has this question but when I test my (WordPress) page on Google Snippet Test Tool I got hatom-enty errors like:
hatom-feed
hatom-entry:
Fout: At least one field must be set for HatomEntry.
Fout: Missing required field "entry-title".
Fout: Missing required field "updated".
Fout: Missing required hCard "author".
I found some tutorials about this but that is for standard WordPress themes. I'm using Inovado from ThemeForest and I can't figure out in which file I have to edit this data.
Someone familiar with this?
I also got problems with snippet review... Good in testresults but doesn't show up in de Google Search Results. Don't know why...
You can Add this code to the function.php file in your theme's directory and it will solve the problems.
//mod content
function hatom_mod_post_content ($content) {
if ( in_the_loop() && !is_page() ) {
$content = '<span class="entry-content">'.$content.'</span>';
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'hatom_mod_post_content');
//add hatom data
function add_mod_hatom_data($content) {
$t = get_the_modified_time('F jS, Y');
$author = get_the_author();
$title = get_the_title();
if(is_single()) {
$content .= '<div class="hatom-extra"><span class="entry-title">'.$title.'</span> was last modified: <span class="updated"> '.$t.'</span> by <span class="author vcard"><span class="fn">'.$author.'</span></span></div>';
}
return $content;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'add_mod_hatom_data');
The code contains 2 functions. The first function will use the WordPress filter hook for “the_content” to add the class of “entry-content” to the article. To add in the other essential hAtom fields, the second function will add a short sentence to the end of your post article, which contains updated time, post title and author, with required microdata.
I am editing a Custom Post Type template, and am using custom fields to enter info into a meta box to be included on the page, as well as include some static default text on all the pages.
I basically need to "chunk" together the post info in the_content along with the static text and some meta box info. Here's what I want:
the_content
static text
meta box 1
more static text
meta box 2
end of the _content
I have plugins that add social buttons before the_content and a signature after the_content so I am trying to figure out how to get all my custom stuff sandwiched in between those.
If I just add the meta boxes i nthe template, they display outside of the_content and the plugins display in unwanted places.
I ended up figuring this out on my own. The solution: using functions.php and add_filter, I had to create a new function to create the default content, and it works great.
here's the general code for anyone interested:
function custom_post_type_default_content($content) {
global $post;
if ($post->post_type == 'your-custom-post-type') {
$content .= '<p> '. get_post_meta( $post->ID, "metabox-1-slug", true ).'
<br />
<p> '. get_post_meta( $post->ID, "metabox-2-slug", true ).'</p>
<p>YOUR TEXT HERE.</p>';
}
add_filter('the_content', 'custom_post_type_default_content', 0);
Note that the zero just near the end controls placement. I have a social media plugin that has a priority of "1", and to get the default content to appear above that I have to make this a priority of "0".
Also note the single apostrophes that open and close the code following $content .=
You basically add whatever you want between those apostrophes, and in this case I am pulling metabox info which have their own apostrophes containing code. It gets confusing!
In other words, your code should be $content .='YOUR CUSTOM CONTENT' and within those apostrophes, add your text, code, etc. The standalone metabox code is '. get_post_meta( $post->ID, "metabox-1-slug", true ).' which is nested inside where the YOUR CUSTOM CONTENT text is.
I am basically explaining this to myself, as these were the things that tripped me up so figured would explain them in detail to help someone else like me. Or me when I have to go look this up again!
Post your single.php here or on pastebin along with the custom field names you're using (& where you want them) and I'll try to help you figure out what you want.
Copy this code to your function.php file.
function content_function_update($content) {
global $wp_query, $post;
if ($post->post_type == 'your-custom-post-type') {
$postid = $wp_query->post->ID;
$value1 = "your value 1";
if($value1 !== '') {
$content = $content . "<br>" . $value1
}
else {
$content = $content;
}
}
return $content;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'content_function_update');
Add any custom content in variables and append it to $content variable.
I noticed that when I call the the_post() or the_content() function from my wordpress template, it automatically parses the database data to replace new lines with <br/>, wraps the text with <p> tags etc...There's probably some kind of "format" function within the_post() or the_content().
I wrote a query to directly get posts from the wp_posts. I then print it out like
<?php
$results = $wp->get_results($sql)
foreach($results as $row) echo $row->post_content; ?>
Clearly, this data is not parsed by wordpress' "format" function. What is the proper way to output this content such that it undergoes the same "formatting" functions as the_post() or the_content()?
#dpelletier is right, and you can simply apply that function to the $row->post_content string.
If you want WordPress to do everything it would normally do on the content, including wpautop and parsing shortcode, use;
$content = apply_filters('the_content', $row->post_content);
There is a function called wpautop().
Only adds <p> and <br/>, so I'm not sure if there is another formatting function that would do anything else.
