Apparently the following simple code breaks the shortcode API of wordpress. When I add this code in the function.php the shortcode API won't work.
This code is normally to add a text at the bottom of each page, any idea why?
function cmstut_basic_promote($content)
{
echo $content;
if(is_single())
{
?>
<div class="promote">
<h2>Enjoy this article?</h2>
<p>If you have enjoyed this article please subscribe to our RSS Feed</p>
</div>
<?php
}
}
add_filter('the_content', 'cmstut_basic_promote');
you must return the content from your filter not echo it - so something like
function cmstut_basic_promote($content) {
if(is_single()) {
return $content . '<div class="promote"><h2>Enjoy this article?</h2> ...';
} else {
return $content;
}
}
would be the way to go

Function and filter to display a player post titles:
function wpb_after_post_content($content){
if (is_single()) {
$id=get_the_ID();
$post_meta=get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'enclosure', TRUE);
$mp3=explode('.mp3',$post_meta);
$title=get_the_title();
if(count($mp3)>1)
{
$player = '<div class="post_player">' . do_shortcode('[fap_track url="'.trim($mp3[0]).'.mp3" title=url="'.$title.'" share="" cover="" meta="" layout="list" enqueue=no auto_enqueue=yes]')."</div>";
$content=$player.$content;
}
}
if (is_single()) {
$id=get_the_ID();
$post_meta=get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'enclosure', TRUE);
$mp3=explode('.mp3',$post_meta);
$title=get_the_title();
if(count($mp3)>1)
{
$player = '<div class="zoomsounds_player">'. do_shortcode('[zoomsounds_player source="'.trim($mp3[0]).'.mp3" play_in_footer_player="on" config="default" artistname="'.get_post_meta($id, 'arxiu_de_so', true).'" config="" ]');
/**if (wp_is_mobile())*/ {
if(get_post_meta($id, 'arxiu_de_so', true)!=""){
/** $player .= " <p id='arxiu_so'> Arxiu de so: ".get_post_meta($id, 'arxiu_de_so', true)."</p>";*/
/**$player .= '<span id="arxiuVal" style="opacity:1"> '.get_post_meta($id, 'arxiu_de_so', true).'</span>';*/
}
}
$player .="</div>";
$content=$player.$content;
}
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( "the_content", "wpb_after_post_content" );
The above code works fine with the_content filter and displays the player below the featured image. However, when I use this function with the the_title filter, the page doesn't load at all. The reason I want to use the_title is because I want the player to display above the featured image but below the post title.
Screenshot:-
This screenshot is to show that with the_content the player displays however it displays below post image.
Please have a look as below:
If you want to use the_title(), then you no need to pass the post_id in the the_title(), we have some params for the_title() if you want to add them like as below:
$before
(string) (Optional) Markup to prepend to the title.
Default value: ''
$after
(string) (Optional) Markup to append to the title.
Default value: ''
$echo
(bool) (Optional) Whether to echo or return the title. Default true for the echo.
Default value: true
If you want to use get_the_title(), then you must need to pass post_id inside the get_the_title($postId);
According to your code snippet, you must update your code with as below for get_the_title():
<?php
function wpb_after_post_content($content){
if (is_single()) {
$id=get_the_ID();
$post_meta=get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'enclosure', TRUE);
$mp3=explode('.mp3',$post_meta);
$title=get_the_title($id);
if(count($mp3)>1) {
$player = '<div class="post_player">' . do_shortcode('[fap_track url="'.trim($mp3[0]).'.mp3" title=url="'.$title.'" share="" cover="" meta="" layout="list" enqueue=no auto_enqueue=yes]')."</div>";
$content=$player.$content;
}
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( "the_content", "wpb_after_post_content" );
?>
And for the the_title(), you should update your code with as below:
<?php
function wpb_after_post_content($content){
if (is_single()) {
$id=get_the_ID();
$post_meta=get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'enclosure', TRUE);
$mp3=explode('.mp3',$post_meta);
$title=get_the_title();
if(count($mp3)>1)
{
$player = '<div class="post_player">' . do_shortcode('[fap_track url="'.trim($mp3[0]).'.mp3" title=url="'.the_title().'" share="" cover="" meta="" layout="list" enqueue=no auto_enqueue=yes]')."</div>";
$content=$player.$content;
}
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( "the_content", "wpb_after_post_content" );
?>
NOTE: You have not declared the title parameter in the zoomsounds_player shortcode so please pass and update accordingly.
I hope it would help you out.
I'm trying to insert a button to show at the end of each post on Wordpress in which the link it goes to is defined by a setup using the custom fields plugin. When creating each post, I am able to select the link I wish to display.
Here is the code I have which I know is wrong but I was hoping someone could help here.
function wpb_after_post_content($content){
if (is_single()) {
$content .= 'Contact Franchise →';
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( "the_content", "wpb_after_post_content" );
I assume $franchise_profile_url is a variable and you should concatenate it in the string like this
$content .= 'Contact Franchise →';
function afterContent($content) {
if(!is_feed() && !is_home()) {
$content.= "<div class='footNote'>";
$content.= "<h4>Click the below button if you like it:</h4>";
$content.= "<p><a href='#'>LIKE</a></p>";
$content.= "</div>";
}
return $content;
}
add_filter ('the_content', 'afterContent');
Use the above function. It will help you to achieve what you need.
Thanks for the help here, however, that code simply links back to the post itself and isn't pulling in the URL as set on the post using custom fields. This is the code I had set up before which was working on a default post setup but now I wish to use an alternative method in the functions.php file
<?php if( get_field('franchise_profile_url') ): ?>
Contact Franchise →
<?php endif; ?>

I figured it out
if( !empty($GLOBALS['post']->post_password) ){..}
I'm facing a weird problem when using the Elementor Wordpress Page Builder.
After creating a custom shortcode and inserting it into any page position, it also shows up at the top of the page, but only in Edit mode.
Top of the page:
Place where I want to insert shortcode:
This answer on an unrelated site helped me solve this Elementor issue. https://wp-types.com/forums/topic/shortcode-output-showing-up-in-the-wrong-place/
I just had to include ob_start(); and $content = ob_get_clean(); return $content; in my function. Here is what it looks like:
function custom_author_link_function() {
ob_start();
coauthors_posts_links();
$content = ob_get_clean();
return $content;
}
add_shortcode('custom_author_link', 'custom_author_link_function');
This is my working example:
function name_it( ){
ob_start();
function_name();
$content = ob_get_clean();
return $content;
return function_name();
}
add_shortcode( 'shortcode_name', 'name_it' );
Just look at function_name(); and return function_name(); lines to avoid errors.
I'm trying to use admin_footer_text in my plugin to add html into admin page. it works. but I've another plugin install that's using the same hook admin_footer_text. my plugin is overwriting the html code of previous one. I want it to append not to overwrite.
here is how I'm using the code
add_filter('admin_footer_text', 'my_footer_admin', 1);
function my_footer_admin($default){
ob_start();
echo 'some text';
$content = ob_get_clean();
return $content;
}
You need to do it like the following example
add_filter('admin_footer_text', 'my_footer_admin', 1);
function my_footer_admin( $default ) {
ob_start();
echo 'some text';
$content = ob_get_clean();
return $default $content;
}
