I have created a plugin with short code now when I access the plugin through short code it works fine issue is that when I put some text above the short code that text goes below the plugin when i view the page.
Here is code that I put into wordpress editor:
<p>Unlock your device safely in 3 steps</p>
[CUSTOMSLIDER]
you can see the plugin shortcode is on second row but static text is on first row but when I will view the page the text goes below the plugin. here you can see its view. you can see the slider is at top and the text is below slider though these were opposite in original source.
in your custom plugin, instead of:
echo "content";
change that to:
$variable .= "content";
return $variable

I am not sure what I am missing. Please guide me and I apologize if my knowledge is too less.
I have a home template file i.e. template-home.php which actually contains nothing for now and is only containing the following lines ->
<?php
/**
* This is the front page code
* Template Name: HomePage
*/
get_header();
get_footer();
?>
I have created a page from wp admin and given the page title "Home" then I selected template "Homepage" for this page I have created from wp admin. Hence I have set the static front page to display "Home". Its perfectly showing the Home page as front page. But when I am giving any content in the edit box of the page "Home" from wp-admin and updating, those contents are not displaying in frontend. But if I put any content in the "Homepage" template , only then its getting displayed. I am giving an example what I tried below-
When I am giving the following in the page edit box then nothing is displayed in real.
[rev_slider_vc alias="homebanner" title="Home Slideshow"]
For your information the above is shortcode of revolution slider which is working perfectly , if I use it in any post. So the shortcode has no error for sure. Another thing whatever I write in the content box is actually not getting displayed in real.
Now the slider code, if I am putting directly into the Home template i.e. template-home.php then slider is getting displayed. The code is as follows ->
<?php
/**
* This is the front page code
* Template Name: HomePage
*/
get_header();
// Revolution Slider
putRevSlider('homebanner', 'homepage');
get_footer();
?>
Though my purpose is getting served well by putting code into the template file directly. But I want that the content I put in the edit box of the page from wp admin can get displayed in real. So what I need to do for that ?
Read https://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop and https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/the_content/
You need a loop and you need the_content to grab the content from the text editor.
A very basic example:
<?php
if ( have_posts() ) {
while ( have_posts() ) {
the_post();
//
// Post Content here
the_content();
//
} // end while
} // end if
?>
Work with that first with some plain text to test the loop.
Then add your shortcode for the slider [rev_slider_vc alias="homebanner" title="Home Slideshow"] in the text editor. And, look at the docs for the slider on how to place the function putRevSlider('homebanner', 'homepage'); directly in the page template file, if you want to do that rather than using the shortcode in the editor.
See https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development for how WordPress themes are structured and the types of basic files you need in each theme, i.e. index.php, style.css, etc.
I have a custom templates and I used custom shortcodes to displayed it in the page. But the shortcode is not working, its displayed as plain text only. I already deactivate and reactive the plugins but still have same issue.
I'm using this [info_box_calculator] but it display as plain text or sometimes it gives me a blank page
How to fix this?
function info_box_calculator(){
ob_start();
get_template_part('page-calcu-info-box');
return ob_get_clean();
}
add_shortcode('info_box_calculator', 'info_box_calculator');
Link
I write a post in new post editor and then add media. I can see the images in the editor but when i publish them they aren't loading up and a frame with little square in the middle comes up. This is the link to one of my posts: http://getprogramcode.com/2013/03/c-program-for-bit-stuffing/ . For some people only link to the image comes up and it opens up with 404 error. See the line after OUTPUT: bit stuffing.
Also i want to remove the featured image from appearing in my posts. I have a option in my theme on a new post: "disable featured image" - but that doesnt work . Also if i dont put the image or i remove the featured image the empty image appears: see the home page: http://getprogramcode.com Please help me to solve this problem
You should not use relative paths on WordPress, only Absolute paths.
The problem is that you are using ../wp-content/... as your URL's for image paths.
When adding images, you should have the option to give it a path, you should opt to link to the media file.
For the disable feature image, if you go into the page.php or single.php code, it should have a line of code in it for calling in the featured image.
It should look something like this:
<?php
if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
the_post_thumbnail();
}
?>
You just need to remove or comment out this code and it should stop showing up on the pages.
Hello i'm using widgets_on_pages to place widgets on pages, i installed it and added a widget to the panel in my admin section, then i added [widgets_on_pages id=2] ("its the 2nd sidebar and it said i should add this") into my html on the place where the widget should appear but it only shows the code i added in pure text, nothing else happens, anyone know what i'm doing wrong?
If I understand correctly then the following applies... if not, apologies.
You should not need to do it this way. It seems that Vincent, you are trying to add the shortcode into a theme php file... this is incorrect and the shortcode is for adding into the page/post content by the post/page editor.
To add a Widgets on Pages sidebar to a template then v 0.0.7 (I believe) has built in template tags (see link text). This should allow you to add the following I think
<?php widgets_on_template("2"); ?>
Try this
<?php echo do_shortcode('[widgets_on_pages id=2]'] ?>
I would like to display the posts the way they are shown when you have "show latest post" selected under reading settings.
I've tried using query_posts, but that displays the whole post, not the chunk that appears in the preview with the link at the bottom.
any ideas what I should be querying to get that?
Edit
I forgot to mention
I tried using the_excerpt(), but that doesn't show the image in the post. Also the index.php file is using the the_content() and it's displaying it the way I want it to
If you don't want to show the whole post, you should use the_excerpt() instead of the_post()
Edit:
From codex:
<?php the_content('Read more...'); ?> Displays the content of the post and uses "Read more..." for the more link text when the Quicktag is used.
Basically, use the_content('your text for the link') and add the quicktag to your article, this will automatically just show the text before
