Caching output of wp_bannerize_pro() in variable

    Hi Giovambattista,

    thanks for the great plugin(!), one question though:
    Is it possible to store the output of the wp_bannerize_pro() function in a variable for later use in the script, rather than outputting the returned HTML immediately? Much like many of the WP functions starting with “get_”, see e.g. the_title() vs. get_the_title().

    Thanks again,
    Chris

    @soela great suggestion! In the meanwhile, you may use an easy workaround for that, the first one is:

    
ob_start();
wp_bannerize_pro($atts); // your attrs
$content = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

    in $content you’ll get the HTML

    Or you could create a simple global function with the above code, something like

    
if (!function_exists('get_wp_bannerize_pro')) {
 function get_wp_bannerize_pro($atts) {
  ob_start();
  wp_bannerize_pro($atts); // your attrs
  $content = ob_get_contents();
  ob_end_clean();
  return $content;
 }
}

    Anyway, I’ll try to add this feature soon

    Just wanted to say a big Thank You for this amazing example of plugin support. Before I even could try out your workaround (which no doubt would have worked perfectly) I found an update with the feature implemented in the core! And the new function get_wp_bannerize_pro() of course works perfectly, too, and does exactly what I wanted.
    Keep up the good work!

    All the best,
    Chris
