For example i have function
function simple_title( ){
return get_the_title();
}
add_shortcode( 'page-title', 'simple_title' );
But i cant add this [page-title] in body message contact form 7 ???
To make it work you have to modify the contact form 7, or check if there is any option to add shortcode into the body message.
What is required to add shortcode into another shortcode is, consider this example:
function simple_title($content=null){
return do_shortcode($content);
}
add_shortcode( 'page-title', 'simple_title' );
Now $content could be a another shortcode or simply a content like
[simple_title][simple_title_2][/simple_title]
Now come to the point, the contact form body message should have the code something like do_shortcode($message). Hope your understand.

So, I know you can put:
function page_title_sc( ){
return get_the_title();
}
add_shortcode( 'page_title', 'page_title_sc' );
Into function.php to fetch the page title and get a [page_title] shortcode within Wordpress, but is it possible to do exactly that for keywords?
I put a focus keyword down in Yoast SEO and I would like to have a shortcode for that.
Or another idea: is there a way to have a custom shortcode field in every page? So that I only have to put something into that once and can use it as a shortcode within the whole page?
If you want a shortcode for Yoast to output the keyphrase automatically:
function wpso_61018203_output_yoast_keyphrase() {
// Make sure Yoast is installed/active.
if ( class_exists( 'WPSEO_Meta' ) ) :
// Hold the global post object.
global $post;
return WPSEO_Meta::get_value( 'focuskw', $post->ID );
endif;
}
add_shortcode('yoast_kw', 'wpso_61018203_output_yoast_keyphrase' );
You can then do this ['yoast_kw'] in your content, or use echo do_shortcode('[yoast_kw]'); in your template.
Use get_post_meta and grab _yoast_wpseo_focuskw:
function page_focus_keyword( ){
return get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), '_yoast_wpseo_focuskw');
}
add_shortcode( 'focus_keyword', 'page_focus_keyword' );
WordPress filters all content to make sure that no one uses posts and page content to insert malicious code in the database. This means that you can write basic HTML in your posts, but you cannot write PHP code.
And you want to use Wordpress shortcode for focus keyword.
Possible solution given on Wordpress.org Yoast SEO plugin support query on similar query, and checkout the linked solution
insert the below php snippet in functions.php
if(!function_exists('wpseoFocusKW'))
{
function wpseoFocusKW()
{
$focuskw = wpseo_get_value('focuskw', $post->ID);
echo $focuskw;
}
}
And to use the shortcode in another page for focused keyword, insert the below shortcode in any pages with yoast-seo plugin :
Shortcode for focus keyword
[<?php wpseoFocusKW();?>]
I'm using the woocommerce_add_to_cart action hook like so:
add_action('woocommerce_add_to_cart', 'display_more_modal', 10, 6);
function display_more_modal( $cart_item_key, $product_id, $quantity, $variation_id, $variation, $cart_item_data ) {
echo "<h1>Test Title here...</h1>";
//or
?>
<h1>More text here</h1>
<?php
}
I have found that if I echo out HTML or output HTML, as illustrated above, it removes all items from the cart, once I go the cart to view what I have added.
Could you some illustrate what I am possibly doing wrong? I have a suspicion that I have to return a value instead of echoing it.
If this is the case, please help as to how I can echo out HTML when a user adds a product to the cart. This HTML will be a popup with related products. Thank you.
I figured that some hooks within Wordpress don't like echoing anything out. I'm not sure how hard & fast this rule is but I remember it generally tends to be bad practice to echo anything out within functions. Instead they should return something. I simply created the product which was created and returned that. In the view file I created an if statement which outputs the html for the modal if a product exists. That seems to have fixed it.
I am currently creating a widget to display the registration form on a WordPress website that uses WooCommerce. For now, I only have 3 basic fields which are email, password, repeat password. I'm looking forward to add more WooCommerce fields, but want to solve that problem before jumping to the next step.
I'm having some problems with the messages output (wrong password, account already exists, etc).
I searched on the web and there was no shortcode already built for WooCommerce registration, beside their registration page. So I went ahead and created a shortcode, with a template part.
function custom_register_shortcode( $atts, $content ){
global $woocommerce;
$form = load_template_part('framework/views/register-form');
return $form;
}
add_shortcode( 'register', 'custom_register_shortcode' );
This is a snippet I use to get the template part inside a variable, since the default function would "echo" the content instead of "returning" it.
function load_template_part($template_name, $part_name=null) {
ob_start();
get_template_part($template_name, $part_name);
$var = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $var;
}
So, the problem is, when I call woocommerce_show_messages or $woocommerce->show_messages(); from my template part, nothing is showing, or if it is, it shows at the top of the page.
I did try to put the calls inside my shortcode function:
function custom_register_shortcode( $atts, $content ){
global $woocommerce;
$woocommerce->show_messages();
$form = load_template_part('framework/views/register-form');
return $form;
}
add_shortcode( 'register', 'custom_register_shortcode' );
Doing so, the message output inside the <head> tag, which is not what I want.
I tried to do the same trick with ob_start(), ob_get_contents() and ob_clean() but nothing would show. The variable would be empty.
I also did try to hook the woocommerce_show_messages to an action as saw in the core:
add_action( 'woocommerce_before_shop_loop', 'woocommerce_show_messages', 10 );
For something like:
add_action( 'before_registration_form', 'woocommerce_show_messages');
And I added this in my template-part:
<?php do_action('before_registration_form'); ?>
But I still can't manage to get the error messages show inside the box. It would always be inserted in the <head>
I will share final solution when everything is done.
Thanks for your time,
Julien
I finally got this working by hooking a custom function to an action which is called in my header.php
I guess hooking functions inside template part does not work as intended.
In header.php, I got this:
do_action('theme_after_header');
And here's the hooked function. Works perfectly.
function theme_show_messages(){
woocommerce_show_messages();
}
add_action('theme_after_header', 'theme_show_messages');
However, I will look into 'unhooking' the original show message function since it might show twice. Need to test some more ;)
You can also just use the [woocommerce_messages] shortcode in your template where you want it displayed
Replying to a bit of an old question, but you can also try the following:
$message = apply_filters( 'woocommerce_my_account_message', '' );
if ( ! empty( $message ) ) {
wc_add_notice( $message );
}
Recently I changed the theme of my site, and I found many of my articles use a shortcode like this
[box]
....
[/box]
My new theme does not support it and I actually don't need this shortcode to function. I thought I could just write a empty function for the shortcode in function.php, like this
function shortcode_box() {
return "";
}
add_shortcode('box', 'shortcode_box');
but it's not working.
Do you know any method to deactivate this short code?
So, you want to leave the [box] bits in the posts and/or pages, but have them not do anything? Try a shortcode that passes through the content unchanged:
function shortcode_box( $atts, $content = null ) {
return $content;
}
add_shortcode( 'box', 'shortcode_box' );
(For enclosing shortcodes, the return value of the function is used to replace the entire shortcode.)
Use remove_shortcode()
remove_shortcode('box');

I'm trying to run a do_shortcode in functions.php with no luck
I'm using Types plugin http://wp-types.com/ for creating custom post types and custom fields.
What I'm trying do is adding a custom column in admin for view all custom posts that displays a thumbnail from a custom field.
This is what I got so far, but it seems that the shortcode doesn't work inside functions.php
// add a column for custom post type (products)
add_filter('manage_product_posts_columns', 'add_thumbnail_column');
add_action('manage_product_posts_custom_column', 'add_thumbnail_content', 10, 2);
function add_thumbnail_column($defaults)
{
$newSlice = array('thumbnail' => 'Image preview');
$counter = 2;
$array_head = array_slice($defaults,0,$counter);
$array_tail = array_slice($defaults,$counter);
$defaults = array_merge($array_head, $newSlice);
$defaults = array_merge($defaults, $array_tail);
return $defaults;
}
function add_thumbnail_content($column_name, $post_ID)
{
// this one works when putting into post content
echo do_shortcode('[types field="square-picture" id="' . $post_ID . '" size="thumbnail"]' . '[/types]');
}
Can anyone help please?
In the Wordpress notes for the function it says
"If there are no shortcode tags defined, then the content will be
returned without any filtering. This might cause issues if a plugin is
disabled as its shortcode will still show up in the post or content."
Types may be conditionally declaring their short code only when you are on the frontend. What may be happening is that, in the admin, the short code is not defined and you are simply getting a false return. While on the frontend, the shortcode is defined and you get the results you intended.
