    I am trying to use the value of a TablePress cell within another shortcode, for example :
    [wp_charts title=”b” type=”pie” data=”[table-cell id=tableid row=2 column=2 /],32″]
    and it doesn’t seem to work.
    is there a way to make the magic happen?
    thanks for your help

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    This won’t work, I’m afraid, as Shortcodes in WordPress can not be nested like that ??
    So, this is not a TablePress issue but a general WordPress thing. Unfortunately, I don’t know a way around this, sorry ??

    Regards,

    I managed to make it work with this :
    (needs “insert php” plugin)

    [wp_charts title=”b” type=”pie” data=”[insert_php]
    echo do_shortcode(‘[table-cell id=bilanresa row=2 column=2 /]’);
    [/insert_php],10″]

    Hi,

    ah, very nice! I assume that the “Insert PHP” plugin does its magic before the Shortcodes is evaluated, which seems to be why this works. Very nice! ??

    Best wishes,
    Tobias

    P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!
