    Hi,
    I’m using ‘insert pages’ along with ‘shortcoder’, where-in, I can specify the ‘page id’ as variable.
    Shortcoder and other plugins use double quotes for variables.
    But here single quote is used. Because of which variable is not being properly executed.
    Anyway it can be changed to double quote from single quote?

    This is a limitation of the WordPress shortcode parser; changing quotes won’t make a difference. You can’t nest shortcodes within another shortcode definition. For example:

    When WordPress sees this:
    [insert page='[sc:test3]' display='content']
    It will evaluate the shortcode from the opening bracket to the first closing bracket:
    [insert page='[sc:test3]
    Which is an invalid shortcode.
