Ok, I adjusted your plugin by adding the $args argument to the custom template call in line 2027 of latest_post_shortcode.php
if ( $use_custom_markup ) {
echo apply_filters( 'lps_filter_use_custom_tile_markup', $tile_pattern, $post, $args ); // WPCS: XSS OK.
Then in my custom template code I adjusted the call to load the template likewise:
my_get_template_part( 'template-parts/custom-tile-2', $args, null );
By using the following function found on StackExchange:
/**
* Like get_template_part() put lets you pass args to the template file
* Args are available in the tempalte as $template_args array
* @param string filepart
* @param mixed wp_args style argument list
*/
function my_get_template_part( $file, $template_args = array(), $cache_args = array() ) {
$template_args = wp_parse_args( $template_args );
$cache_args = wp_parse_args( $cache_args );
if ( $cache_args ) {
foreach ( $template_args as $key => $value ) {
if ( is_scalar( $value ) || is_array( $value ) ) {
$cache_args[$key] = $value;
} else if ( is_object( $value ) && method_exists( $value, 'get_id' ) ) {
$cache_args[$key] = call_user_method( 'get_id', $value );
}
}
if ( ( $cache = wp_cache_get( $file, serialize( $cache_args ) ) ) !== false ) {
if ( ! empty( $template_args['return'] ) )
return $cache;
echo $cache;
return;
}
}
$file_handle = $file;
do_action( 'start_operation', 'hm_template_part::' . $file_handle );
if ( file_exists( get_stylesheet_directory() . '/' . $file . '.php' ) )
$file = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/' . $file . '.php';
elseif ( file_exists( get_template_directory() . '/' . $file . '.php' ) )
$file = get_template_directory() . '/' . $file . '.php';
ob_start();
$return = require( $file );
$data = ob_get_clean();
do_action( 'end_operation', 'hm_template_part::' . $file_handle );
if ( $cache_args ) {
wp_cache_set( $file, $data, serialize( $cache_args ), 3600 );
}
if ( ! empty( $template_args['return'] ) )
if ( $return === false )
return false;
else
return $data;
echo $data;
}
