CURL fetched content publishing in wrong location?
-
I have written a plugin using CURL to fetch HTML from a file and publish it to a page/post or widget using a shortcode. I also have a Facebook “like” button and the Twitter button installed and activated with settings to publish before (at the top) of posts and pages.
When I use the shortcode the content publishes before the Twitter/Facebook pushing them to the bottom of the page just about the comments section. If I use the shortcode in a widget the TITLE publishes beneath the content in the sidebar instead of on top of it. Ideas?
function get_data($url) { $curl_handle=curl_init(); curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_URL,'sometext.txt'); curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,2); curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); $buffer = curl_exec($curl_handle); curl_close($curl_handle); if (empty($buffer)) { print "New data is unavailable but coming soon!<p>"; } else { print ("<p>$buffer</p>"); } } add_shortcode('content-ddk', 'get_data');
