Shortcode in functions.php

  • I am using
    echo do_shortcode('[yasr_overall_rating size="medium"]');
    to show ratings in a single page, everything works fine.

    I also need to view the ratings in a googlemap popup (Pronamic plugin).
    I am able to output in the popup everything I need from the post except for the ratings.

    This is the code to customize the popup in my functions.php:

    function prefix_pgmm_item($itemContent) {
	$itemContent = '';
	$itemContent .= '	<a href="'. get_permalink() .'">';
	$itemContent .= '		'. get_the_title();
	$itemContent .= '	</a>';
	$itemContent .= wpautop(get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), '_pronamic_google_maps_address', true));
	global $post;
	$MYvar = do_shortcode( '[yasr_overall_rating]' );
	$itemContent .= $MYvar;

	return $itemContent;
}
add_filter('pronamic_google_maps_mashup_item', 'prefix_pgmm_item');

    $MYvar doesn’t show anything.
    Any idea?

    Just wrote you an email, thanks.

    I am having this exact same issue actually.
    I need to be able to add it into my custom loop but echo do_shortcode is not working with any of the shortcodes. So I was trying to call the function direct, and did an echo shortcode_overall_rating_callback($atts) with still nothing showing.

    If you have a fix for this, or a way to insert direct with a function as opposed to a shortcode I will gladly pay for the pro version for multi sites!

    So far this plugin is awesome and has saved me a lot of time, but I need to get this one part to work.

    Shortcode was built to work on single post or page, so if what you’ve already tried is not working, there is nothing I can suggest you, sorry!
