Shortcodes in fields

  • Iam using events manager, and I wanted to pull in the next upcomping event inside my custom menu field using 

    [events_list limit="2" category="9"]
<div class="image half drop-column">
<a href="#_EVENTURL">"#_EVENTIMAGE"
<span class="image-text">
<strong>#_EVENTNAME</strong>
<span>#_EVENTDATES</span>
</span>
</a>
</div>
[/events_list]

    It’s pulling in my content as html, not rendering my shortcodes. Is it possible to render shortcodes in the Custom menu fields?

    You can try using do_shortcode() ??

    i tested quite a few things like adding filters, but to be honest I dont know enough about the plugin code, or writing shortcodes to really do much more.

    Someone else designed the theme for me. They added in the custom fields in menu items for me but hardcoded divs. I want to change the hardcoded divs to be my event shortcode, so that I can have my site update dynamically instead of having to manually change my menu content everytime and entertainment act changes.

    I am using the Events Manager plugin, and just need my shortcodes to work when i put them in the custom fields.
