I developed a plugin that needs to show some information at the end, and for that purpose I have a template inside my plugin.
Which one is the proper way to call all wordpress headers for the html to render properly ?
Ok, I already figure this up. At the end I just called the core wordpress components as it was a template, and change the content to what I wanted.
get_header();
get_footer();
With those 2 functions I could call everything that I needed to create my website withing my plugin.

I'm developing a plugin that creates pages for admin menu in backend via WPBakery. But when I look at generated page there is only shortcodes. How can I make plugins shortcodes execute in backend.
I've tried to use echo do_shortcode( '$content' ) but it does not work. I probably should work with plugins classes but do not know how.
I want to make a page with page builder for admin menu and execute all shortcodes that creates rows columns message boxes etc.
Any help would be appreciated.
Before using do_shortcode, add WPBMap::addAllMappedShortcodes(); function, this function loads all elements, and then do_shortcode should work fine.
i want to convert my html website to the wordpress. But can you please talk me that how i can convert and connect the other pages with the main page???
I'm going to start from the point of view you already have Wordpress and are ready to start.
You can't take your existing HTML website and just add it to WP.
What you need to do is to build your own custom theme, that matches your current HTML files, using the already existing WP templates and files.
Best way is to duplicate an existing theme to play/manipulate so that you don't break WP. The last thing you want to do, having no experience, is to mess with and break the default theme and be unable to get it back again without a full re-install.
RE 'connect the other pages with the main page' WP allows you to have static pages and set them as your home page and/or anywhere else you want. With these pages you can also set up different templates within your theme if you need to.
Wordpress have all this help available here:
Wordpress creating static pages and custom templates
Its not really that simple. You should read about WP theming. Here's the start:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development
Check codes from other themes to see how to output basics. Theming has a lot of parts, but to ouput custom html you will need these files:
style.css
functions.php
index.php
single.php
With those you should have an basic blog output with core WP functionality.
I am creating a payment gateway for woocommerce and it works great.
Now I need to change the content of the thank you page so I think that is better to create one of my own.
I have a folder with the page that I want to show inside my plugins under a "templates" folder, si my idea is to show that one.
I still not able to show the content of that website. Any ideas on how to do this ? I would be really greatful.
At the end, the best solution was to have functions / shortcodes that do some stuff before loading the pages and then redirecting to the pages.
At least this worked for my plugin.

Any way, if you want to change the content, you could add a website through the plugin calling the following methods.
get_header();
get_footer();
With those 2 functions I could call everything that I needed to create my website page withing my plugin.
So I am trying to do this and I don't know how. I have a wordpress powered website with a plugin called "frontier-post" in it. This plugin makes a new front-end post submission. The way to use it is to put the shortcode "[frontier-post]" in any post in my wordpress page and that page turns into this.
I want to make a custom page for myself, where I can have the content created by this plugin there too. So I do not want it to be a post in my wordpress, but lets say at a corner in the custom page. I have searched and found these but the suggestions there would not work. I am able to include the wordpress so that the custom page has access to posts, etc. but even using this
echo do_shortcode('[frontier-post]');
would not help me. (even if header is included)
These are the similar things i found:

Need Help for my Custom Page Template
I would really appreciate it if you could help me with this.
If you are creating a PHP page that isn't going to be rendered inside WordPress, you can't use a Plugin of the WordPress engine to accomplish what you are wanting to build. (As the accepted answer to one of the pages you link to indicates).
Instead, you might be able to use the json-api plugin and have your custom page query it for the data. While it won't render the shortcode, it will give you the raw data to work with.

Edit:
Based on a comment, your do_shortcode should work...just try it without the square brackets.
I'm somewhat new to Wordpress. I'm primarily a front-end web designer, and I use Wordpress plugins for things like dynamic content, forms and really anything a client requests that I do not know how to write code for. Unfortunately, I share the frustration of many designers/developers who complain about Wordpress' html sanitization. Thus, I write the majority of my html directly onto the page templates rather than using the Wordpress editor. I only use the Wordpress editor for small sections of my pages where I need to insert a plugin shortcode -- for a form or something. This works well until I need to use multiple plugins on one page. For instance, if I need a form plugin at the top of a page and a google map at the bottom, then I have to code all of the html in between those two elements into the Wordpress editor, which I would rather avoid.
My question -- is there a way to use Wordpress plugins in the page template html instead of using the shortcodes in the Wordpress editor? If I had it my way I'd never have to use the Wordpress editor for non-blog content.
Thanks,
Scott
Use wordpress do_shortcode();
e.g. echo do_shortcode('[gallery autoplay=no]');
