Nested Shortcode support?

something like formidable does:
https://formidableforms.com/knowledgebase/set-values-to-be-used-in-custom-displays-or-default-values/#kb-in-views

Hi,

Currently it’s possible to use only [id] and [key] as nested shortcode attributes so to solve the task we can offer you 2 possibilities to solve the task:

1st solution:
Create Formidable Forms View with shortcode inside:
[myshortcode firstname="[318]" lastname="[319]"]

And use inside E2Pdf Template:
[display-frm-data id=123 filter=limited entry_id="[id]"]
* where 123 is the ID of Formidable Form View.

2nd solution:
Create custom shortcode wrapper which will generate shortcode as you need. Here is the code example which must be added to theme functions.php or PHP snippet: https://codeshare.io/G6NrKY

After adding code it will be need to use:
[myshortcode-wrapper dataset="[id]"]

We remain at your service.

great! 2nd solution is what i was looking for. for my needs the final code is this:

function myshortcode_wrapper($atts) {
	if (isset($atts['dataset']) && !empty($atts['dataset']) && class_exists('FrmEntry')) {
		if ($entry = FrmEntry::getOne(sanitize_key($atts['dataset']))){
			$form = FrmForm::getOne($entry->form_id);
			$shortcode = '[intro_text anrede="[318]" fullname="[311]" anlass="[214]" datum="[165]" location="[171 show=value]"]';
			return do_shortcode(apply_filters('frm_content', $shortcode, $form, $entry));
		}
	}
	return '';
}
add_shortcode('intro_text_e2pdf', 'myshortcode_wrapper');

then in the e2pdf template i call it this way:

[intro_text_e2pdf dataset="[id]"]

thank you very much!
