Dizze plugin **is net hifke mei de lêste 3 grutte releases fan WordPress** . It 
kin net langer wurde ûnderhâlden of stipe en kin kompatibiliteitsproblemen hawwe
as it wurdt brûkt mei resinte ferzjes fan WordPress.

## Beskriuwing

The Shortcode Callback plugin allows you to use a [callback] shortcode to execute
arbitrary PHP code wherever the shortcode is used.

**Usage**

Execute someFunction() and insert whatever it returns with the following shortcode:
[
callback function=”someFunction”]

Example shortcode to include a PHP file (the path is relative to WordPress’ ABSPATH),
then insert the results of someFunction() where you used the shortcode:
 [callback
include=”custom/filetoinclude.php” function=”someFunction”]

Shortcode example that includes a PHP file (the path is relative to WordPress’ ABSPATH),
then passes a paramter to someFunction() and returns the results where you used 
the shortcode:
 [callback function=”someFunction” include=”custom/filetoinclude.
php” param=”something”]

The format to call a class/method with the shortcode is exactly the same as above,
except you specify the class::method in the “function” attribute of the shortcode.
[
callback function=”someClass::someFunction” include=”custom/filetoinclude.php” param
=”something”]

There is an example (with PHP code) [over here](https://wordpress.org/plugins/shortcode-callback/faq/).

## Ynstallaasje

 1. Upload `shortcode-callback` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the Shortcode Callback plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in the WordPress
    admin area.

## FAQ

  Do you have an example of where the Shortcode Callback plugin is used?

I built this plugin primarily because I needed a way to inject the “Daily Yield”
and “Total Yield” numbers to [my solar power chart page](https://shawnhogan.com/solar-power-chart#utm_source=readme&utm_medium=wordpress&utm_campaign=plugin).

  The shortcode being used:

[callback function=”DigitalPointElectricity::total_output” param=”daily” include
=”custom/Electricity.php”]

  The `custom/DigitalPointElectricity.php` file being called by the shortcode:

<?php

    ```
    class DigitalPointElectricity
    {
        public static function total_output($timeframe)
        {
            $totals = $GLOBALS['memcache']->get('shawnhogan-pv-total');

            if ($timeframe == 'total')
            {
                return $totals->Items[2]->TotalYield;
            }
            elseif ($timeframe == 'daily')
            {
                return $totals->Items[1]->DailyYield;
            }
        }
    }
    ```

This is a really good way of adding some custom code without having to create a 
new WP plugin. Simply add a php file to your wordpress and display the result using
a shortcode. Just remember: Don’t use echo or print in your functions or the output
will be displayed above your post and not where your shortcode is. To display contents
correctly always return them as shown in the examples. To render template files 
with lots of html: ob_start() require 'my_custom_template.php'; $contents = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean(); The resulting output will be stored in the $contents variable thanks
to the output buffer. The template file can contain php which will be interpreted
like every file that is being included using require().
