Get Recent Posts with shortcode

  • Hello All,

    I am trying to display latest posts using wp_get_recent_posts function, in one of the post i have used a shortcode [newsletter] but instead of diaplying the content of shortcode, this itself is got printed [newsletter] my code is this
    `$args = array(
    ‘numberposts’ => 2,
    );

    $recent_posts = wp_get_recent_posts($args);

    foreach( $recent_posts as $recent ){

    echo ‘<li><span class=”header”><a href=”‘ . get_permalink($recent[“ID”]) . ‘” title=”Look ‘.esc_attr($recent[“post_title”]).'” >’ . $recent[“post_title”].'</a></span> ‘. $recent[‘post_content’].'</li> ‘;

    }`
    Please Help me out

  • Hi swayam.tejwani,

    I think that the shortcode [newsletter] is wrapped into an html element. In order to fix this, you need edit your post, then go in the text tab on top right of the content editor. If the shortcode [newsletter] is wrapped into any html element ( like div or p) remove that element and update your post.

    I hope this help,

    Julien
