Hello guys
I have a problem with using a shortcode in the LayerSlider. I have read a lot about other topics regarding this issue but not sure if it is just not possible. I have created a custom shortcode in my child theme functions.php file like this:function ticketcounter() {
$product_id = 23947;
$product = wc_get_product($product_id);
$productcount = $product->get_stock_quantity();
return $productcount;
}
add_shortcode(‘myticketcounter’, ‘ticketcounter’);It displays fine on a page and shows the actual stock quantity. But when i use it on the LayerSlider it shows the stock quantity at the moment i save the slider but it does not update the stock quantity after this point.
Any ideas?
Kind regards,
Michael StormHi,
can you provide us screenshots to make it clear to us about which elements you’re talking exactly? I can’t find any stock quantity on the link you’ve provided.
However, I think this would be out of our support scope and a job for a freelance developer.
Best regards,

I work professionally with webdesign so you could call me a freelancer – i have bought several licens to Enfold. I had to remove the layerslider duo to a deadline so you wont find the layerslider on the link i provided anymore.
I can not activated now as my deadline is tomorrow and i have to finish up the website. But the problem still exist.
A custom shortcode function only provides an output on save. It does not update on every page load. In an other post I saw someone write that it obviously does not run the shortcode function but not why.
I can not provide a link at this moment but if you find a solution to this “issue” it would be great for future projects. Is i wrote it works perfectly on regular pages so the shortcode worked fine. Just not in the layerslider.
Kind regards,
MichaelHi,
we need a link showing the elements and the issue you’re talking about, to be able to inspect everything. Let me know when you can provide us a test link.
Best regards,

I understand. Just close the topic. I can not provide a link on this project anymore duo to the deadline i had. I dropped the LayerSlider and just added a color section instead.
Kind regards,
Michael
