Tell us what you are trying to do?
I am trying to embed a custom shortcode within a Toolset view. The problem is, my custom shortcode is getting exceuted regardless of it's placement within the view output. This is breaking my view output as my results are appearing before any custom search control(search bar, sorting, pagination).

Is there any documentation that you are following?
This is the link I took reference from: https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/how-to-create-a-custom-shortcode/#:~:text=To%20do%20this%2C%20go%20to,Third%2Dparty%20shortcode%20arguments%20section.

Is there a similar example that we can see?
I am fraid not as the website works on intranet only.

What is the link to your site?

I suspect your custom shortcode is echoing content, instead of returning it, so the output appears out of sequence. That's what your symptoms sound like.

Shortcodes should always return their content: https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/shortcodes/#shortcode-best-practices
