Hi,

I have a pagination with manual transition and AJAX on lien caché and when the other page reloads, my shortcode which shows a reading time will not work, it display only name of the shortcode. How can i make it work?

It may or may not be possible with AJAX, because there are some limitations with 3rd-party shortcodes and AJAX. The most practical solution is to not use AJAX. Otherwise, you may have to rewrite the shortcode in a way that will work with AJAX.

Is this custom shortcode something you developed yourself, or part of a plugin / theme you purchased?

I am using this code:

<?php
toolset_snippet_security_check() or die( 'Direct access is not allowed' );
function reading_time() {
    $content = get_post_field( 'post_content', $post->ID );
    $word_count = str_word_count( strip_tags( $content ) );
    $readingtime = ceil($word_count / 200);

    if ($readingtime == 1) {
      $timer = " minuta";
    } else {
      $timer = " minuty";
    }
    if ($readingtime >= 5) {
      $timer = " minut";
    }
    $totalreadingtime = $readingtime . $timer;

    return $totalreadingtime;
}
add_shortcode( 'doba_cteni', 'reading_time' );

I have the shortcode inside Toolset setting as a snippet and when I was looking for the code, I saw checkbox Run context - AJAX calls. I turned it on now and it works 🙂

Great! Let me know if you run into problems with the snippet system.
