I am using Toolset custom fields together with a Elementor Pro single custom template to dynamically display SmartSlider 3 sliders. Christian Cox helped me regarding this issue earlier this year and it worked fine. The problem I had was that I didn't insert the shortcode correctly in the WYSIWIG field. I needed to add a short "reference code" ahead of the shortcode for Elementor to understand that I want it to pick up the SS3 shortcode and display the slider. Unfortunately, I have been sloppy and I have lost what code it was I had to insert.
I include a screenshot of how I have done it now.
Sorry to bother you twice about this issue, but I would very much appreciate if you can help!
Hi Nigel,
Yes that was the thread. Unfortunately the answer is not in the tread. Christian went into a demo site I had built for the purpose and did some changes to how I had input the shortcode in the WYSIWIG field. Stupidly I didn't make a note before I deleted the demo site.
Before I submitted this ticket, I tested to write [types field="[smartslider3 slider=27]"][/types] in the WYSIWIG field as I thought that was what he had added to [smartslider3 slider=27], but it doesn't work. I have tried to call for the toolset field both with an Elementor text widget and the shortcode widget. I know the last time that it didn't work with the shortcode widget, but with the text widget it worked. //Jan
