Thanks for the explanation, that makes sense.

Cheers

correct.

are you aware of any differences of how the slide show initiates if i output with

$post = get_post($p); //$p is the post_ID
echo $post->post_content;

or with

query_posts( array ( 'category_id' => $cat, 'posts_per_page' => 1 ) );
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
	the_content();
endwhile;

The 2nd method outputs it correctly, but I changed the page to retrieve the post via post_id so I wanted to use the first method

Hi Stefan

Right now, with do_action(‘slideshow_deploy’, $post->post_content); I actually passing the slide show ID (93) as $post->post_content, and not the whole string [slideshow_deploy id=93].

I understand it should work by using [slideshow_deploy id=93] as the content of the post but somehow when outputting the post with

$post = get_post($p); //$p is the post_ID
echo $post->post_content;

it doesn’t initiate the slideshow but only shows this string “[slideshow_deploy id=93]”. I guess my output method is not happy with the slideshow string.

Thanks

Thanks for the fast response. Changing the PHP file was all I needed anyway.
