[Resolved] Javascript not displaying in a page

[Philippe Jourdren]

Hi, I’m a happy blogger using GP Premium.
I try to put a javascript sequence of that type in a page :

<script language=’Javascript’ src=’https://fr.divelogs.de/mylatestdivebig.php?user=xxxxxx&#8217; type=’text/javascript’></script>

Unfortunately, nothing is displayed
Have you a clue or a solution ?
Cheers

Hi there,

Where are you adding the code currently?

Try the wp_head hook: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/hooks-overview/

[Philippe Jourdren]

I put this sequence in the content of the page.
You can view it there :

What is the script for? Generally the it needs to go in wp_head hook.

[Philippe Jourdren]

It’s for displaying an image showing a dive profile, which is hosted on divelogs.de

WordPress strips javascript out of the editor.

Perhaps something like this will help: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/shortcoder/

[Philippe Jourdren]

No it doesn’t, i’ve installed shortcoder plugin, created a shortcode with the javascript sequence, but the shortcode doesn’t work

[Tom]

So the shortcode doesn’t output anything at all when you add it to your content?

[Philippe Jourdren]

It displays the test you see when you go the page : http://www.philjourdren.fr/carnet-de-plongees-en-ligne/

I think I must have done something wrong.
I created a shortcode called “last-dive”. In the editor i copied :

<script language=’Javascript’ src=’https://fr.divelogs.de/mylatestdivebig.php?user=lizard2802&#8242; type=’text/javascript’></script>

And then I saved the shortcode. When I use it, it doesn’t work

[Tom]

And you’re adding [last-dive] to your content?

[Philippe Jourdren]

Yes !

[Tom]

Ah, the instructions (https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/shortcoder/) say to add it like this:

[sc name="my_shortcode"]

[Philippe Jourdren]

This is just what i did ! It seems just t oreplace the text of the shortcode with the script
I don’t understand what’s going on !

[Tom]

Probably worth just creating your own shortcode.

add_shortcode( 'last_dive', 'last_dive' );
function last_dive() {
    ob_start();
    ?>
    <script language='Javascript' src='https://fr.divelogs.de/mylatestdivebig.php?user=lizard2802' type='text/javascript'></script>
    <?php
    $ret = ob_get_contents();
    ob_end_clean();
    return $ret;
}

Then use: [last_dive]

[Philippe Jourdren]

Thanks ! Do i insert this portion of code into the CSS ?
