eStore Shortcode in page template

[enyaw]

Hi, I am trying to use the WordPRess function ‘do_shortcode’ in my page template. HEre is the code that I am trying to implement but it just returning the shortcode text.

Example: I am using this in my page template ‘<?php echo do_shortcode (‘[wp_eStore_subscribe:product_id:4:end]’); ?>. But is is not returning the subscribe button. It is only returning ‘[wp_eStore_subscribe:product_id:4:end]’ as a string.

Can you help me with this?

Thanks

Update: I have found a work around. However, I don’t think that this is the most practical way to do things. I have copied all of the form HTML code by using chrome’s element inspector and it is processing to the Paypal checkout page. But again. if there is a way I can use the shortcode that would be great. But if the way I have done it will work then that would be even greater.

Thanks

Hi, you can try using the following function instead of copying the html button code:

<?php echo print_eStore_subscribe_button_form(4); ?>

Also, the text link purchase button feature can be handy too:

Cool, Thank you.

This is how I am utilizing the shortcode function in case there is anyone else wanting to do the same thing:

function sub_button(){

ob_start();

$subscribe = print_eStore_subscribe_button_form(4);

return $subscribe;

}

add_shortcode(‘subscribe’, ‘sub_button’);

Where ‘4’ is equal to the product ID.
