Team Showcase [team] Shortcode

The Team Showcase shortcode is a powerful tool that displays a specific team member’s information on your WordPress site. By using this shortcode, you can directly call the ‘team_showcase_display’ function, which accepts ‘id’ as a parameter. This ‘id’ refers to the unique identifier of a team member. The function then generates a dynamic HTML block, embedding the team member’s data within a ‘team-container’ div. This allows for flexible and customizable team member displays.

Shortcode: [team]

Parameters

Here is a list of all possible team shortcode parameters and attributes:

• id – Unique identifier of the team showcase

Examples and Usage

Basic example – Showcases a team by referencing its ID

[team id=1 /]

PHP Function Code

In case you have difficulties debugging what causing issues with [team] shortcode, check below the related PHP functions code.

Shortcode line:

add_shortcode( 'team', array( $this, 'team_showcase_display' ) );

Shortcode PHP function:

                    function team_showcase_display($atts, $content = null ) {
        $atts = shortcode_atts(
            array(
                'id' => "",

            ), $atts);

        $html = '';
        $team_id = isset($atts['id']) ? $atts['id'] : '';

        $args = array('team_id'=> $team_id);

        ob_start();
        ?>
        <div id="team-<?php echo $team_id; ?>" class="team-container">
            <?php
            do_action('team_showcase_main', $args);
            ?>
        </div>
        <?php
        return ob_get_clean();
    }

Team Showcase [team_import_xml_layouts] Shortcode

The ‘team_import_xml_layouts’ shortcode is a powerful tool that imports XML layouts into your WordPress site. It fetches data from an XML source, creates new posts under ‘team_layout’, and updates post meta.

Shortcode: [team_import_xml_layouts]

Examples and Usage

Basic example – Importing team layouts from an XML source

[team_import_xml_layouts xml_source="http://example.com/path/to/xml"]

Advanced examples

Importing team layouts from a local XML file located within the WordPress installation

[team_import_xml_layouts xml_source="/path/to/local/xml"]

Importing team layouts from an XML source and specifying the user ID for the post author

[team_import_xml_layouts xml_source="http://example.com/path/to/xml" user_id="2"]

Note: The user ID must be a valid user ID of a user in your WordPress installation. If not specified, the function will use the ID of the current user.

Also, please remember that the `team_import_xml_layouts` shortcode should only be used by users with the `manage_options` capability (usually administrators), as it involves creating new posts and updating post metadata.
