Problem: I need to add a script tag to my Custom Template. In the script tag's src attribute, I would like to append a URL variable and value coming from a custom field, but I cannot get the Types numeric field shortcode to work correctly. The shortcode is written out in the src URL instead of being executed. I need to add the custom field's numeric value in a URL parameter attached to the src URL.

Solution: It turns out that WordPress does not execute shortcodes in script tags URL parameters, whether or not Toolset is involved.Thi p The same problem can be seen even if custom shortcodes are use i . The solution in this case is to get the value of the custom field using the types_render_field API, then append that value to the src attribute URL using a custom shortcode.
