Hello,

I am trying to get some post meta so I created a custom shortcode to pass the ID of a CPT.

I am using [tour_include id="[e2pdf-wc-product key="_st_booking_id" meta="true" index="0"]"] [/tour_include] , but it dosen't work

Is there any way to pass values to shortcode?

Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately, WordPress doesn't support such shortcode constructions. It will be easier to modify just the shortcode output via filter:

1st solution:

Shortcode must be changed to:
[e2pdf-wc-product key="_st_booking_id" meta="true" index="0" tour="true"]

Filter to change output:

Or if you still need it inside the shortcode, 2nd solution:

Shortcode must be changed to:
[tour_include][e2pdf-wc-product key="_st_booking_id" meta="true" index="0"][/tour_include]

Function to add tour_include to process nested shortcodes as:

The shortcode function must be changed to "nested" shortcode as:
function myshortcode($atts = array(), $value = '')
* where $value will be the _st_booking_id
