Not working in category page

Hello,

It doesn’t matter if a page is post, page, or category. It should work everywhere. Can you send a link to your site so we can check your category page?

Thanks,

Hello,

The plugin you are using for your e-commerce pages is probably not executing shortcodes or this feature is disabled. I guess it won’t execute any shortcode, not only our plugin’s shortcode.

Best regards,

The ‘e-commerce’ plugin is WooCommerce. Other shortcodes work in WooCommerce, so this plugin does not work for WooCommerce.

Hello,

It’s strange, can you try any other shortcode in the same place where Hot Random Image shortcode is and confirm it works?

Thanks,
Milos

Yes, other shortcode works that start and end with [ ]
Not sure if it has anything to do with this plugin’s shortcode starting and ending with { }

Hello,

You can change shortcode to use [ instead. Edit plugin file hot_random_image.php and change this line:

if ( !preg_match("#{randomimage}(.*?){/randomimage}#s",$srchtml) ) {

to this:

if ( !preg_match("#[randomimage](.*?)[/randomimage]#s",$srchtml) ) {

This line:

if (preg_match_all("#{randomimage}(.*?){/randomimage}#s", $srchtml, $matches, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER) > 0) {

to this:

if (preg_match_all("#[randomimage](.*?)[/randomimage]#s", $srchtml, $matches, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER) > 0) {

and finally this line:

$srchtml = preg_replace( "#{randomimage}".$hotrandomimage_input."{/randomimage}#s", $html, $srchtml );

to this:

$srchtml = preg_replace( "#[randomimage]".$hotrandomimage_input."[/randomimage]#s", $html, $srchtml );

Please let us know if the plugin works now.

Best regards,
Milos

No sorry that didn’t work. The page is still just showing the shortcode instead of the image.
