Shortcodes not working with Thrive Editor

    I use a page builder for the site I manage.
    The shortcode: [mw open=”!calendar”] does not work in the ‘wordpress content’ block that I use to display other shortcodes (which work).

    The code is not being interpreted as a shortcode and I suspect it’s because the Membershipworks plugin uses a filter somewhere.

    I would like to be able to use the membershipworks codes to display what I need on my page.

    Hi CharlyLeetham!

    MembershipWorks uses the standard WordPress the_content filter to process shortcodes instead of do_shortcode. This is because not all our shortcodes are standalone – some of our shortcodes need to modify other content on the page, such as the [memberonly] shortcode, so it is not possible to accomplish that using do_shortcode.

    Unfortunately this does mean it will not work with some page builders that do not honor the WordPress standard filters. We would recommend switching to the standard WordPress editor just for those pages. Alternatively you can use our HTML snippets instead of shortcodes, however this will disable the Facebook/Twitter share buttons on event and directory profile pages so we would not recommend using the snippets on the event/directory pages.
