Run do_shortcode() inside variable, not working…

    So I’m trying to make a variable contain the output of a shortcode and output it to a text file like so:

    $login_logo_url = do_shortcode( $jf_options['loginlogolk'] );
file_put_contents( $file, $login_logo_url);

    But when I look at the text file it’s just the shortcode itself. I tested the shortcode in a page and it’s working. What am I doing wrong?

    What is the value of $jf_options['loginlogolk']? It must be a simple string, if it were a string element in a one element array for example, do_shortcode() will fail. As a test, hardcode the actual string and see what happens.

    Where is this code executed? Could it run before the corresponding add_shortcode() is called?

    Could another plugin (or your theme?) be interfering with shortcode handling?

    These are the only things I can think of. Several people have had issues with do_shortcode() not doing, I don’t think there’s any kind of elusive bug, probably some variation of the above.
