[Resolved] Shortcodes don't work at all

Hi Nigel

Sorry for the delay. Not at all! Happy to 'do something'!

I tried replacing the close function with your alteration: <a href="javascript:console.log('Boo!');" class="folly-popclose"></a> But there is no resolution. No change.

I tried removing the related script (<script>) altogether and interestingly, the page still wouldn't display the toolset shortcodes unless I removed several instances of the call to the script in html. Sometimes it worked with 3 sometimes 5... In fact, I never managed to repeat a failure. So I could never conclude on what is exactly wrong with this html even when the script was not active. I removed all the content, CSS classes and tested repeatedly with all kinds of combinations. Never the same result..

This is what I mean by 'one' instance in html:

<div class="folly-popcontainer">
    <a href="javascript:showHide('pop-xxx');">New Event</a>
    <div id="pop-xxx" class="folly-popoverlay" style="display:none;">
        <div class="folly-popcontent">
            <a href="javascript:showHide('pop-xxx');" class="folly-popclose"></a>
            <h3>New Event</h3>
            [cred_form form="event-create"]
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Eventually I moved the site across to previous PHP version 5.6.37 and now everything works perfectly.

So what we do know for certain is that:

1. The Toolset [conditional] shortcode with PHP version 7.0.31 has an issue with something in my html on this page which is unique on this website in that it is the only page to call javascript inside a [conditional] shortcode.
2. Even if the javascript is not active there is still a problem.
3. One or 2 html instances always works and that any more than 2 sometimes works and sometimes doesn't.
4. My CSS (folly-popoverlay, folly-popclose, folly-popcontent and folly-popcontainer) is not the problem.

Hmmmmmm....

Hi Rita

I copied the problematic markup you identified before (https://toolset.com/forums/topic/shortcodes-dont-work-at-all/#post-1105553) into the template nigel-editor that I conditionally insert into the editor page like so:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-post-title]' eq 'Editor' )"]
[wpv-post-body view_template="nigel-editor"]
[/wpv-conditional]

And it works fine, as per the screenshot (I can click on the links and forms open inside modals).

This is after I switched the site to run on a server with PHP 7.0.3 (which is the closest I can get in my set up to 7.0.3.1).

So I'm at something of a loss to explain, as I can't reproduce the problem.

With your hosting are you able to use any other PHP 7 versions that 7.0.3.1 that you can try?

Thanks for all your support Nigel. As I mentioned previously: Eventually I moved the site across to previous PHP version 5.6.37 and now everything works perfectly. I still don't know what the problem is.. A mystery indeed.
