This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The issue here is that the user wanted to add our toolset shortcode to a button generated using DIVI
Solution:
The issue is that the button doesn't process shortcodes for its url Value.
I'm not sure if Divi had improved this but its not possible use a shortcode to provide the value for a divi button.

Hello, I'm trying to link "a post related to the current post, set by a Types post reference field" from a Divi button. The shortcode is as follows: {!{wpv-post-url item="@download-link.parent"}!}
It goes to an incorrect page (hidden link - see screenshot).
When I use the same shortcode in a text field, it goes to the correct page (hidden link - see screenshot).
Can you provide instructions on how to use shortcodes inside something that has the visual look of a button?
