Generally good, free version breaks short codes

can you expand on this adaptation and configuration of the wpts_wptouch_pro option please?

in my experience, shortcodes work perfectly in mobile, if they are not defined in your theme’s functions.php…just move those to plugins.

and you can modify/add to the wpt default theme:

cd $HOME/www/wp-content/plugins/wptouch/themes/bauhaus/default
ln -s ../../../../../themes/lalo/news.php.ln2wpt news.php
ln -s ../../../../../themes/lalo/edd_templates .
ln -s ../../../../../themes/lalo/archive.php .
ln -s ../../../../../themes/lalo/single-download.php .
ln -s ../../../../../themes/lalopubs/single-published_authors.php .
ln -s ../../../../../themes/lalopubs/single-published_titles.php .
ln -s ../../../../../themes/lalopubs/taxonomy-genres.php .

rm -f 404.php
ln -s ../../../../../themes/lalo/404.php .

of course, that has to be done after every wpt update…the above code is a cron job-)

hi Airdrummer.

Thanks for that, but I have almost no idea what it means or how to program it, but thanks anyways.

I’m interested in this bit though….”in my experience, shortcodes work perfectly in mobile, if they are not defined in your theme’s functions.php…just move those to plugins.”

Can you elaborate please?

Thanks

richard.

shortcodes can be defined either in the theme’s functions.php file, which of course will not be loaded by wpt, or in a plugin that you create & install:

<?php
/**
* @package cardinal glen hoa
* @version 1.20
Plugin Name: cardinal glen hoa
Description: Site specific code for cardinalglen.org
*/
function todays_date( $attrs, $content=null)
{ 
	extract( shortcode_atts( 
				array('fmt' => get_option('date_format')), 
				$attrs ) );
	$fmt = $attrs['fmt'];
	return date($fmt);
}
add_shortcode('todays_date', 'todays_date');

I’m using a plugin called Advanced View Franework Lite, which allows me to use my ACF custom fields and create a template of fields and formatting which can then be embedded inside a page using a shortcode. Could these shortcode structure be added to the wp-touch functions php file?

sorry, don’t know why that plugin’s sc aren’t working, but if you have access to your database in for example phpmyadmin:

SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE ‘wpts_wptouch_pro’

mine contains:

s:26:”process_desktop_shortcodes”;
s:1:”0″;
s:17:”remove_shortcodes”;
s:0:””;

and s.c.s are executed…interestingly, another website that works contains:

s:30:”enable_shortcode_compatibility”;b:0;
s:30:”shortcode_compatibility_method”;
s:17:”remove_shortcodes”;
s:17:”remove_shortcodes”;
s:0:””;

the 1st time i looked, but now doesn’t contain those lines…wtf?

thanks

yes, mine seems to be the same as the first on your message. Nothing resembling the second bit in mine, but i wouldn’t know where to place the text entries in the field, as there way be a specific order to it all.

it is only the shortcodes relating to the ACF custom fields that do not render anything on the website pages, not even to show [shortcode].

all the other shortcodes seem to work.

ah, only acf…i haven’t used that in a while…googling “acf shortcode not working wptouch” returns quite a few including this: https://support.wptouch.com/article/565-adding-support-for-the-advanced-custom-fields-plugin

it looks like you have to explicitly Include the custom field call where you want the custom field to appear in your page template, which wpt bypasses. so u would have to copy your theme’s templates into wpt’s: wp-content/plugins/wptouch/themes/bauhaus/default

good luck & have fun;-)

and this: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/shortcode/#enabling

yes thanks, seen that and enabled it. Trouble is you can only use common text acf fields not one’s coming from other formats and styles, which is why I’ve used the ?Advanced View Franework Lite plugin and their shortcodes.

thanks
