I am using this plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/query-multiple-taxonomies/

I am trying to display output of this plugin inside Read more. So I created a shortcode:

<?php
function tax_shortcode() { 
the_widget('Taxonomy_Drill_Down_Widget', array(
	'title' => '',
	'mode' => 'lists',
	'taxonomies' => array( 'quote-writer', 'quote-topic' )
));
}
add_shortcode('taxshort', 'tax_shortcode');
?>

Now I am trying to use it this way:

<?php 
echo do_shortcode('[expander_maker]'.'[taxshort]'.'[/expander_maker]');
?>

My shortcode data is not showing inside read more.

What can I do?

What am I doint wrong?

Website: www.sustainableprocessimprovement.co.uk
Theme: Academica

I have set the link up in the Homepage Content section of theme options as I was supposed to and it was working fine until yesterday so I really am at a lose as to why it’s not working now.

Here is a link to my website: https://www.cdjoneill.com/

Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Here is what is happening… I get the read more link to show up but when I click on it, it loads the blogrole again. So it essentially reloads the page. The read more link has the correct post id, and, when I click the read more link it changes the address to the correct post id but displays the blogrole. Crazy huh!

I am working locally on WAMP and I have set my static frontpage page up and have the blog role set to /blog/ . My template file for the front page is frontpage.php and for the blog role is index.php

I have added this code to functions php…

function new_excerpt_more($more) {
       global $post;
	return '<a class="" href="'. get_permalink($post->ID) . '"> [read mo]</a>';
}
add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');

my loop is…

<?php query_posts('cat=3&showposts=5'); ?>
<?php if(have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<div class="blgTtl">
<h2>
<?php the_title(); ?>
</h2>
</div>

<div class="blgMnt">
<?php the_time('F') ?>
</div>

<div class="blgDay">
<?php the_time('d') ?>
</div>

<div class="blgYr">
<?php the_time('Y') ?>
</div

<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

<?php endwhile; else: ?>

<p> No Content </p>

<?php endif; ?>

If I change the_excerpt to the_content and use the built in read more feature it works fine. the read more button is there and when it is clicked a new page loads and the complete post is on the page.

Anyone have any ideas?
