Works like a charm ?? Thanks for your dedicated support!

Hello, thank you for your quick feedback and help. I’ve tried to insert a manual link in the “Short details” box as suggested but the link created is not clickable… I have a normal CSS text transform when hovering the hypertext link but nothing happens when I click – the mouse pointer changes to a text pointer (“I”) when hovering the whole text description.

Power of collective intelligence ?? Thank you vierfalter! The outcome is perfect.

I have yet a subsidiary question: do you know how to make the modification “stable”? I have a child theme: should I simply paste this within functions.php?

Hi,

We figured out that we only had to use coauthors() in cite.php like this:

$find_string = array('{author}','{sitename}', '{title}', '{date}', '{publication_date}', '{permalink}');
    $replace_string = array(coauthors(), get_bloginfo('name'), get_the_title(), displayTodaysDate(), get_the_date(), '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '">' . get_permalink() . '</a>');
    $edited_setting = str_replace($find_string, $replace_string, $wpcp_setting[setting]);
    return '<div class="wpcp">' . $edited_setting . '</div>';

And it worked! However, the names are printed twice now. If you’re facing the same issues, we’ve raised the issue here.

I meant {author} tag in the previous post.

Hi,

Almost there! I’ve used Miquel’s methodology and replaced the get_the_author tag by a get_coauthors tag in cite.php like this:

function cite_shortcode() {
    global $wpcp_setting;

    // Getting admin preferred date format for current date
	if(!function_exists('displayTodaysDate')){
    function displayTodaysDate() {
        return date_i18n(get_option('date_format'));
	}
	}

    $find_string = array('{author}','{sitename}', '{title}', '{date}', '{publication_date}', '{permalink}');
    $replace_string = array(get_coauthors(), get_bloginfo('name'), get_the_title(), displayTodaysDate(), get_the_date(), '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '">' . get_permalink() . '</a>');
    $edited_setting = str_replace($find_string, $replace_string, $wpcp_setting[setting]);
    return '<div class="wpcp">' . $edited_setting . '</div>';
}

However, this returns an “Array” print for {authors} (while other tags are ok)…

Did I forget something?
