Do these screenshots illustrate what I’m trying to do?

I’m having this problem too. I would also like to resolve it.

I’ve had to disable the plugin for now because I do not know if the appended code will affect affiliate tracking on some of my external links.

Thanks,
Carly.

Hello again,

I’ve tried just adding it in the text editor and the same thing happens – it automatically adds p tags.

I’m guessing it’s something the developer’s done?

Hello Cubecolour,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

I have manually written the shortcode and that did not work either.

Here’s a link to the affected page:

As I say, it works fine when tested in a blog post, so I suspect it’s something to do with how the developer’s set up our CPT?

Many thanks,
Carly.

It’s just occurred to me that I can just add class=”ext-link” to my affiliate/redirected links. There’s very few of them anyway! Not really sure why it took me all day to think of that, haha!

Hello, thank you for your reply. You understood correctly ??

Although an internal url, it redirects to an external site. The reason being, is I use this method for affiliate links. It’s a very common practise. This is the plugin I’m using, their website might explain it better than I can!

would forward to…

Great to know there is already similar demand, and on your to-do list. Once again, thank you very much.

Hi David – thanks again for the great plugin.

You can always use the shortcode [ssba] to place the buttons wherever you wish.

I’m not sure if it’s just me BUT the shortcode isn’t working for me at all. I’ve tried putting it in my theme template and in my widgets but it just doesn’t execute.

I’ve tried posting both [ssba] and <?php echo do_shortcode('[ssba]'); ?> in various places to see what works!

I’m using StudioPress Genesis – do you think there’s a conflict somewhere? Has anybody else (who might be reading this) successfully used the shortcode with Genesis?

I’m using plenty of other shortcodes in both widgets and the template with no issue.

Any ideas about what to check first? What to look for? I’m fairly proficient with WordPress & PHP but not amazing, so I’d need pointers!!

Cheers in advance for any help
