Adding a Do Shortcode via a Custom Field WordPress
Hi guys,
Looking for a suggestion to a problem I am having.
I have a theme, that has some broken jQuery on it. The broken jQuery means that I cannot Embed a Gravity Form using a template tag, into the php file.
I can insert a form using the standard [shortcode] into the post, which works, but i cannot position this where i want to.
Can any answer and give me the code if possible to do the following:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[shortcode]')<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'domain_register_form', true); ?>; ?>
It looks a mess but essentially I want to have a Do Shortcode, get shortcode as a custom field.
Any ideas?
Failing that can anyone fix the jQuery issues here: http://bit.ly/qTIsxh

What exactly does your custom field 'domain_register_form' contain? Gravity form id?

Yeah just trying to add the Gravity Form, form specific, Shortcode:
[gravityform id=1 name=DomainRegistration Form title=false]
I have added the form (using the shortcode) to the post text area so you can see the form working.

Shouldn't be too hard:
<?php
$shortcode = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'domain_register_form', true);
echo do_shortcode($shortcode);
?>

Hi,
Why not use Google's jQuery?

I tried doing that earlier! Great minds think a like.
But it wouldn't call the scripts :(
I only really know HTML, CSS a tiny bit of PHP and making minor adjustments to WordPress Templates
Romel Apuya answers:
have you tried this?
<?php echo do_shortcode('[shortcode]').get_post_meta($post->ID, 'domain_register_form', true);?>
Romel Apuya comments:
hi,
try this
<?php echo do_shortcode('["name_of_post_type","domain_register_form" ]'); ?>
where name_of_post_type is the name of your post type
and domain_register_form is the name of the custom field.
Geraint Palmer answers:
a good place to start to look for you jquery problems is the 404 from these includes.
wp-whois.js Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
swstyles.css Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
not the css file, but if a function in the missing wp-whois.js is called it would probably kill the jquery process dead, so either disable that plugin, or find out where its missing js file is, should probably fix it.
