WP Shortcodes with PageBuilder on Vantage

7 years ago · Last reply by Alex S 7 years ago

I am using the Vantage these, the standard SiteOrgin widget bundle. I am trying to add a simple WP Shortcode to display all pages from one category in the body of a page. It doesn’t work.

Here is the page.
http://andrewsundance.com/bad-book-reviews/

These are two examples of shortcodes I’m using:

[display-posts category=”bad-book-reviews” posts_per_page=”-1″ include_date=”true” order=”ASC” orderby=”title”]

[display-posts tag=”bbr” posts_per_page=”20″]

What am I doing wrong? I disabled all non-SiteOrgin widgets but it still didn’t work.

    Hi Andrew,

    What plugin are you using that’s adding the display-posts shortcode? I ask as this isn’t a standard WordPress shortcode so you’ll need to install a plugin that adds this shortcode to be able to use it.

    I am using this:

    I was using Post to Page, which I have used on several other sites, but it didn’t work either.

    Hi Andrew,

    Unfortunately, WordPress.com includes certain features not included in WordPress.org. Most of this additional functionality is included in Jetpack but certain functionality, such as this shortcode isn’t included. You’ll need to find a plugin that adds this sort of functionality in WordPress.org. This plugin looks like a good option:
