Visual Composer Compatibility

  • Hello there,

    I was wondering how I could get Advanced Excerpt working with Visual Composers “Latest Posts”. I just can′t seem to get it to work, for some reason I can only find “get_the_content” within the “Latest Posts” function. If i change this to “the_content”, my whole theme crashes.

    Does any1 know how to get it to work?

    Thanks.

    $latest_posts = new WP_Query($args);

		$output = 	'<div class="w-shortblog '.' date_atleft'.$attributes['el_class'].'">
							<div class="w-shortblog-h">
								<div class="w-shortblog-list">';
		global $disable_section_shortcode, $post;
		$disable_section_shortcode_tmp = $disable_section_shortcode;
		$disable_section_shortcode = TRUE;
		while($latest_posts->have_posts())
		{
			$latest_posts->the_post();

			$excerpt = $post->post_excerpt;
			if ($excerpt == '') {
				$excerpt = get_the_content(get_the_ID());
				$excerpt = do_shortcode($excerpt);
				$excerpt = $this->sections_fix($excerpt);

				$excerpt = apply_filters('the_excerpt', $excerpt);
				$excerpt = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $excerpt);
				$excerpt_length = apply_filters('excerpt_length', 55);
				$excerpt_more = apply_filters('excerpt_more', ' ' . '[...]');
				$excerpt = wp_trim_words( $excerpt, $excerpt_length, $excerpt_more );
			} else {
				$excerpt = apply_filters('the_excerpt', $excerpt);
				$excerpt = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $excerpt);
			}

			$output .= 				'<div class="w-shortblog-entry">
										<div class="w-shortblog-entry-h">
											<a class="w-shortblog-entry-link" href="'.get_permalink(get_the_ID()).'">
												<h4 class="w-shortblog-entry-title">
													<span class="w-shortblog-entry-title-h">'.get_the_title().'</span>
												</h4>
											</a>
											<div class="w-shortblog-entry-meta">
												<div class="w-shortblog-entry-meta-date">
													<span class="w-shortblog-entry-meta-date-month">'.get_the_date('M').'</span>
										<span class="w-shortblog-entry-meta-date-day">'.get_the_date('d').'</span>
										<span class="w-shortblog-entry-meta-date-year">'.get_the_date('Y').'</span>
												</div>
											</div>
											<div class="w-shortblog-entry-short">
											'.$excerpt.'
											</div>
										</div>
									</div>';
		}
		$output .=				'</div>
							</div>
						</div>';
		$disable_section_shortcode = $disable_section_shortcode_tmp;
		wp_reset_query();

    This is the code that is beeing used by vc_latest_posts.
