Disabling Shortcodes

Plus, there is no way of having an edited product moved to “pending” automatically, so If i approve a product and then the seller changes the content adding shortcodes or html tag that screw up the page, how can i prevent this?

Am i doing something wrong?

Hello Roberto,

Im cheking your issue. Please allow me some time. I will be back to you with a right solution.

Thank you 🙂

Hello Roberto,

I checked your issue but failed to reproduce the issue. Can you please provide a screenshot?.

I am using a theme called Jupiter.
It allows a lot of custom shortcodes, like this

[mk_chart percent=”50″ bar_color=”#00c8d7″ track_color=”#ececec” line_width=”10″ bar_size=”150″ content_type=”percent” icon=”moon-alarm-2″]

which builds a fancy chart.

If i enter this or other custom shortcodes, they actually appear on the frontend.
I Believe dokan should be blocking all the shortcodes, as default behaviour, in order not to give too much “power” to the sellers.

On the other hand, the textarea named “post_excerpt” does not parse the html. Meaning if i write “Hey” and click “update product”, the layout of the product page screws up.

I’ll post some screens asap.
Cheers

Hello Roberto,

Shortcode is a feature that works on anywhere in the wordpress system, regardless the input area file or place. So there is no way to stop it from frontend or depending on user roles.

QUestion: is this

remove_filter('the_content', 'do_shortcode', 11);

something that may work? Just asking cuz im not an expert.
Cheers

Hello Roberto,

Disabling the shortcodes is possible. But as I said earlier, it will turnoff the shortcodes globally. So the shorcodes in your site will not work any where in your website. Shotcodes can not be bound to one single page.

Thank you for understanding. 🙂

Here they say it’s possible somehow. Would this code work with some editing or do you think it won’t?

Thank you for your help!!!

Hello Roberto,

We have not tried such type of codes. You may give it a try in your local/testing/staging server and see if that works or not 🙂
