New update Woody Snippets breaks page

I am having a similar issue after updating WordPress and the plugin.

Here is the line that is causing an error:

echo ' <span style="color: #000000;">' . do_shortcode('[sc_embed_player_template1 fileurl="https://redacted.org/audio/' . $sermon['file'] . '"]') . '</span>';

Here is the error:

Got error 'PHP message: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '"', expecting ')'

This worked perfectly before the two updates. Until this is resolved I have moved this code out of Woody and into a separate php file on my server. I am then using Woody to simply include(‘file.php’) to run the code and it is working. This tells me what I already know, that my code is good.

Also, I have noticed that I cannot use the “tab” key when editing a snippit.

I cannot reproduce this problem yet, your code works for me. As soon as I can get more information, it will be fixed.

Also, I have noticed that I cannot use the “tab” key when editing a snippit.

Try to just update the general settings of the plugin.

Updating the settings fixed the tab issue.

What do you need from me to further look into this?

@jeremywj
I could quickly fix this problem. Can you give me access to your site? Or maybe you have a test site?

I need more information. Here is a link to the form where you can send private data:

I just sent your credentials to login. I also reverted the snippit back to the code that causes the error.

I think I got my issue resolved. Previously I used code such as:

if ($Month == “” AND $Year == “”) {$tdih = “[tdih_tab day= ” . $Day . “]”;} else if ($Day == “” AND $Year == “”) {$tdih = “[tdih_tab month= ” . $Month . “]”;} else if ($Month == “” AND $Day == “”) {$tdih = “[tdih_tab year= ” . $Year . “]”;} else if ($Month == “” AND $Day AND $Year) {$tdih = “[tdih_tab day= ” . $Day . ” year= ” . $Year . “]”;} else if ($Day == “” AND $Month AND $Year) {$tdih = “[tdih_tab month= ” . $Month . ” year= ” . $Year . “]”;} else if ($Year== “” AND $Month AND $Day) {$tdih = “[tdih_tab month= ” . $Month . ” day= ” . $Day . “]”;} else {$tdih = “[tdih_tab month= ” . $Month . ” day= ” . $Day . ” year= ” . $Year . “]”;}
echo do_shortcode($tdih);

I changed it to:

if ($Month == “” AND $Year == “”) {$tdih = “tdih_tab day= ” . $Day;} else if ($Day == “” AND $Year == “”) {$tdih = “tdih_tab month= ” . $Month;} else if ($Month == “” AND $Day == “”) {$tdih = “tdih_tab year= ” . $Year;} else if ($Month == “” AND $Day AND $Year) {$tdih = “tdih_tab day= ” . $Day . ” year= ” . $Year;} else if ($Day == “” AND $Month AND $Year) {$tdih = “tdih_tab month= ” . $Month . ” year= ” . $Year;} else if ($Year== “” AND $Month AND $Day) {$tdih = “tdih_tab month= ” . $Month . ” day= ” . $Day;} else {$tdih = “tdih_tab month= ” . $Month . ” day= ” . $Day . ” year= ” . $Year;}
echo do_shortcode(‘[‘ . $tdih . ‘]’);

Notice that I removed all the “[” and “]” from the if block and made them a part of the do_shortcode call. That seemed to placate the plugin. The plugin breaks when you try something like { $A = “[xxxxx]”; } . I guess it doesn’t like the [].

I’ll continue to test a bit before I deploy to my live site. Thank you for your quick response and help in this manner.

In case you are wondering… I maintain the largest blackjack historical database. More information at blackjackreview.com/wp/historical-events/.

I analyzed the user code @jeremywj, thank him very much for help! The bug is in do_shortcode, our plugin seems to be trying to process the shortcode, which is why it creates syntax problems. This will be fixed in the next release.

Best regards, Alex

webcraftic: Thanks! Glad you found the bug. I will revert back to just using include() until you get that released.

webcraftic: Just updated and reverted to original code. I can confirm 2.1.4 fixed the issue.
