Hi,

I have a query, please.

I have [wpv-found-count] showing the number of listings.

Just next to it, I want a column that will do this calculation:
[wpv-found-count] X 7, i.e., the count multiplied by 7

Would you please advise how to get this done?

Thanks,

Rajiv

Hi Rajiv,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Will this be a case where the [wpv-found-count] will always be multiplied by 7?

Please let me know so that we can know how to best proceed.

Thanks,
Shane

Yes.

The [wpv-found-count] will always be multiplied by 7, suffixed with 'questions'.

My final output will be, for example, 140 questions, 210 questions, 14,000 questions, 7,000 questions, etc.

Hi Rajiv,

You should now be able to use this shortcode that I just created.

// Add Shortcode
function wp_multiply_seven( $atts ) {

	// Attributes
	$atts = shortcode_atts(
		array(
			'val' => '',
		),
		$atts
	);

	return $atts['val']*7;

}
add_shortcode( 'wp_multiply_seven', 'wp_multiply_seven' );

Add it to the Toolset custom code section at Toolset -> Settings -> Custom Code then activate it once you've saved it.

To trigger the shortcode you will need to do it like this.
[wp_multiply_seven val='[wpv-found-count]']

This should return the found count multiplied by 7.

Thanks,
Shane
