Nested Shortcodes?

  • Hi,

    how can I use nested shortcodes with this plugin? I have the asin stored in a custom field and want to put the content of this custom field between your brackets using the plugin “Custom Fields Shortcodes” but it doesn’t work. not even when using the plugin “Outerbridge Nested Shortcodes”!

    the shortcodes look like this, the output is empty:

    [asa content]
    [cf-shortcode plugin=”generic” field=”amazon_guid”]
    [/asa]

    This is probably not working because of the order your plugins get executed. Asa will fire before the shortcodes of the customfields were replaced as it seems. Maybe there is a way (a plugin) to change this order.

    ok, now I added a function to read the custom field value and insert it (with a shortcode again) between [asa][/asa] in my functions.php, but this still doesn’t work.

    i thought that since this is in functions.php and not a plugin the priority would be kind if higher…

    i used this code here: https://wpsnipp.com/index.php/functions-php/get-custom-field-value-with-shortcode/

    any hints?

    ok, i gave up and did it the long way: by hand (for about 200 posts)
