Hi there,
I’ve tried to insert shortcodes or php codes within the advanced editor and realised it does not work. Is there an alternative way to insert such codes besides using “Insert PHP” plugin as I faced an error while using it with your theme and decided to forgo the option. Thanks.
Regards,
Robert ChaiHi Josue,
Thanks for the help. It works! However, just to clarify… Does the short code insertion only works for a Text Block? So if I intend to use say a IconBox, it will not work? Do let me know.. Thanks!

Robert ChaiHi!
You can use this plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/insert-php/
This will enable you to insert php codes directly on the Text Editor. Instead of using “<?php CODE HERE ?>”, you need to use “[insert_php] CODE HERE [/insert_php]”.
Cheers!
IsmaelHi Ismael,
Would there be a way to work through the Advanced Editor or I have to work through the Default Editor?

Robert ChaiHey!
You can do this using the Advance Layout Builder. I tested it using the Text Block element.

IsmaelHi Ismael,
Thank you for the notice. I guess the other question I have is that what codes will return a portfolio item / post tags as a previous reply from Josue only provided a print-reply from the website of “Array” instead of the tags itself.
Much appreciated.
Regards,
Robert ChaiHey!
I’m not quite sure what you mean. To output portfolio items you would use the portfolio item element from the advanced layout editor. If you aren’t able to add an element or shortcode within another one right now its because the theme does not have coding in place to allow for that kind of nesting.
Cheers!
DevinHi Devin,
For me, I wasn’t able to successfully use any shortcodes within the Advanced Editor interface. Thus, I’ve used another method through enabling a PHP insert plugin and somehow find another way to write some codes to solve the problem. However, through my testing, not all shortcodes work on my end.. Not too sure why.
Regards,
Robert ChaiIt seems like there is a misunderstanding of the root issue. There should be no reason why you would need to wrap regular shortcodes inside php if all you are trying to do is add in shortcodes.
What do you mean by default shortcodes and in what instance is it not working specifically?
Portfolio shortcodes have no support being nested inside any other element except columns/color sections so if that is the end goal we wouldn’t be able to help with that. Same with color sections and Layer Slider elements.
Hi Devin,
I apologize for my misunderstanding. What I meant was either to insert PHP codes or shortcodes into the Advanced Editor, as either or would provide a solution to solving problems to insert some modular code into the page / post.
A list of some of the shortcodes I have attempted was from here … http://en.support.wordpress.com/shortcodes/ or probably I didn’t get the method of inserting the codes properly.
Thanks for informing me about the limits with the Portfolio options. At least now I’ll just have to rethink on methods to work around it. ;)
Cheers!
Robert ChaiThose shortcodes are for WordPress.com which as far as I know are not available in regular WordPress installations.
