How do I add shortcode so that it appears in the listing attributes?

I would like to add another listing attribute field that displays information from a shortcode. How do I add the shortcode to my listing attributes?

Hi Dewi,
You can add in your WordPress dashboard, Go to Listings → Attributes → Add New.
Create an attribute (e.g. name whatever you like), choose a field type (Text, Text Area, or whichever fits), and set its “Display” options (where on the listing page it should appear).
Like Block primary, Page Primary check the attachment once.

That process works ok for creating standard types of attribute, but not for embedding shortcode. It’s possible to embed a URL but that’s not what I need. Thanks

Oh sorry my bad, let check this out once

Hi,

If you’re looking to use an attribute value within a shortcode, you can achieve this through the Display Format field. Simply add your shortcode with the %value% placeholder, like this:

[my_shortcode my_parameter="%value%"]

This way, if your shortcode needs to display content based on user input, it will work correctly. The %value% will be replaced with the actual attribute value when displayed.

In short, you can accomplish this through the Display Format setting in your attribute configuration.

Hope this helps.
