I’ve been able to successfully use this short code to add the Squeeze link within a post.
[wp_eStore_free_download_ajax:product_id:5:end]
However, I don’t want it in a post but on a sidebar. I use the Head Theme and I’ve tried the following leaves: Text, Text Lead, and HTML/PHP/
But what I get is just a display of the short code.
Can this be done? If so, please share the steps.
Appreciate,
John…

But more importantly is the support and excellent documentation. I love the short and to the point videos that accompany most aspects of these tools.
Just fantastic!!!

May 23, 2011 at 5:56 pm #32702truegoldMemberOK, I have read and tried all ideas and I get the same result.
I have added the plugin PHP Widgetify. I’ve drag & dropped the widget into the sidebar area. I’ve added the short code:
[wp_eStore_free_download_ajax:product_id:5:end] (actually I tried both the Ajax and normal versions)
I have a product setup with a download link, etc.
And I continue to get the short code displayed.
Also, when the Squeeze article says: “Don’t forget to fill the ‘Button Image URL’ field when you add the product. this image will be shown as the ‘download now/Get Now’ button. The plugin comes with a download button (download_icon.png) that is stored in the images directory of the plugin”
If it already has a default button do I need to add one? I haven’t!
If someone could put togther a video showing the complete process it would save a lot of time!
Anymore ideas?
Thanks,
John…

http://www.islmusic.com/videos
scroll down on the right side to the last widget in the sidebar.
The site is a continuing work in progress so keep that in mind.
Thanks,

“…now you can execute PHP too!”
Instead of using the eStore short code [wp_eStore_free_download_ajax:product_id:5:end] you must use the PHP function <?php echo eStore_free_download_form(5); ?> instead, as per:

I’ll let you know if this works. Fingers crossed.
Thanks,
John..
May 24, 2011 at 12:12 am #32706truegoldMemberThanks that worked. I also reviewed the docs.Once again I failed to see the php section towards the bottom of the squeeze page article.
So again I missed it. Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Appreciate your help,
John…
