PHP echo single quote breaking echo
Posted on 2011-09-30
I am trying to use a dynamic variable in a Wordpress shortcode in a theme using do_shortcode like this:
That does not work...this does though so I know its my echo statements breaking it because this does work:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[map id="map1" address="Austin, TX " z="15"]'); ?>
Can someone help me figure out how to format this?
<?php echo do_shortcode('[map id="map1" address="<?php echo($row['fulladdress']); ?> <?php echo($row['city']); ?>, <?php echo($row['zip']); ?> " z="15"]'); ?>
That does not work...this does though so I know its my echo statements breaking it because this does work:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[map id="map1" address="Austin, TX " z="15"]'); ?>
Can someone help me figure out how to format this?

I don't know anything about wordpress or do_shortcode, but I can tell you have a lot of mismatched braces and brackets in there. Do not echo variables or use php tags inside php tags. That z=15 is just hanging loose on the end of that line. I can not tell what you are trying to do with it. But try this.
$content = '[map id="map1" address="'.$row['fulladdre
echo do_shortcode ($content);
echo($row['city']);
echo($row['zip']);
$content = '[map id="map1" address="'.$row['fulladdre
echo do_shortcode ($content);
echo($row['city']);
echo($row['zip']);
Using echo inside echo seems out of place to me. And echo is not a function so you can remove the parentheses.
I think you might be looking for something like this, but it is hard to guess:
$str = '[map id="map" address="';
$str .= $row['fulladdress'];
$str .= '"';
$str .= ' ' . $row['city'];
$str .= ' ' . $row['zip'];
$str .= '"'
$str .= ' z="15"]';
echo do_shortCode($str);
It is much easier to get the code right if you do not use compound statements.

i need the city and zip and the closing bracket ] to finish the short code? How do I include those? Nothing I try worked?
