[Support request] Elements

[Marco]

Hello
tried to create a hook element with the following code but I’m getting some errors – hope somebody can help.

Thanks

<?php

	global $post;

	$pid = (int) $post->post_parent; 

	echo do_shortcode('[ gallery id="'.$pid.'" numberposts="3" ]');
?>

the error is as follows: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'gallery' (T_STRING), expecting ',' or ')' in /Users/Marco/Sites/cms/wp-mmjaeger/wp-content/plugins/generatepress-premium/elements/class-hooks.php(180) : eval()'d code on line 10

Hi there,

I just gave your code a try and didn’t get that error. Just to confirm, is “Execute PHP” checked?

Execute PHP is checked – I’ve added the same element to the site online – gave you the url and credentials some days ago – same error?! maybe I’m doing something wrong?

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘gallery’ (T_STRING), expecting ‘,’ or ‘)’ in /home/mmjaeger/public_html/gp/wp-content/plugins/generatepress-premium/elements/class-hooks.php(180) : eval()’d code on line 7

I put basically the same code into the functions.php file and it works fine?

[Tom]

What about this?:

<?php
    global $post;

    $pid = (int) $post->post_parent; 

    $shortcode = '[ gallery id="' . $pid . '" numberposts="3"]';
    echo do_shortcode( $shortcode );
?>

Be sure to remove the space between the [ and gallery. I had to add the space to prevent our site from trying to render the shortcode.
