Shortcodes

Hi

It should be possible to allow shortcodes by using the do_shortcode command somewhere.

I’ll take a look and try and get it running but it may a few days or a weeks or so as I’m pretty busy at the moment.

If the place jumps to mind earlier then I’ll do an update.

thanks
Kevin

As an emergency you could do this:

in your theme archive’php file or whichever file covers your category listings you will find :

<p>'.category_description().'</p>';

or something simialr to call the category description. You can get shortcodes to run by adding the do_shortcode() to it so:

<p>'.do_shortcode(category_description()).'</p>';

I will try and work it into the plugin somehow when I get the time.

Hi

i’ve taken a little look at this and it’s not something that I think can be done through the plugin. I’ve had a look at some themes and different themes call the category description in a different way so I can not use just a simple string replace for the category_description.

I think it’s just a question of doing the do_shortcode hack on your own theme files.

Sorry about that but I don’t think there is a way of doing this without messing up other themes etc.

Thanks for taking the time to look Kevin!
