For the benifit of others I created the following code so I can manipulate the description of a product based on which store of my multi store site you are on. I'm sure there are better ways but this worked for me.
So by inserting [sitename /] into a product description I get the appropriate company name/store name helping to make the two stores a little more unique.
Code: Select all
function sitename() {
$current_store = $this->config->get('config_url');
if ($current_store == 'http://www.XYZ.com/') {
return 'XYZ Company';
}
else {
return 'AAA Company';
}
}

Is there a way shortcodes can be used in Meta Tag Title and Meta Tag Description?

Ok to achieve shortcodes in Meta Title and Meta Description I added the following code after line 89 in xml file in vqmod directory.
This helps me to create unique meta data for each product in my multi store
Code: Select all
<file name="catalog/controller/product/product.php">
<operation error="log" info="Parse shortcodes at meta tag title">
<search position="after"><![CDATA[['meta_title']]]></search>
<add><![CDATA[
$this->document->setTitle($this->shortcodes->do_shortcode($product_info['meta_title']));
]]></add>
</operation>
<operation error="log" info="Parse shortcodes at meta tag title">
<search position="after"><![CDATA[['meta_description']]]></search>
<add><![CDATA[
$this->document->setDescription($this->shortcodes->do_shortcode($product_info['meta_description']));
]]></add>
</operation>
</file>

String comparison could be different between http and https
You can return config_name wich represent Admin > System > Setting > Edit > Tab Store > Store Name input
This will also make your shortcode more flexible for usage in future
Code: Select all
public function sitename() {
return $this->config->get('config_name');
}
Yes you can use $this->shortcode->do_shortcodes() to parse shortcode in any content
Thank you for reporting search issue, I will fix it soon

Thank you for your response and hint above much appreciated.
I have a bit of a glitch. I have two items on the featured module but one of them is not processing the shortcode.
The shortcodes are the same in both cases and I have checked the source to ensure code is identical in both.

Other possibilities is the shortcode tags truncated by desc limit.
May be I should change how it works, do_shortcode then let desc limit truncate.
Currently I do_shortcode from desc truncated result

That would give a more uniform view as at the moment different products take up more space than others and makes the page look a little funny

Trying to figure out how I can pull certain products onto an info page based on a tag on those products?? Is there a way I can do this using shortcodes? I want to highlight a certain shoe theme that currently has about 24 different styles. I have the same tag on all, just now need to write copy on an info page then include those products on the page. Thought the easiest way might be by using a shortcode.

No default shortcodes can do that. But you can make your own shortcodes.
I suggest you to read shortcodes
developer refferance.

Maybe I am missing something BUT does shortcodes make possible to have the options to be placed into the description area of a product page?
Ie.....
This xyz thing is blah, blah, blah. It is available in: shortcode that represents (shows) options.
Thank you,
Mike

It's possible but you need to create your own shortcode tags for that.
Example: [product_options id="3" /]
In the callback you need to check if current page is product page, check if current product page have options id 3 data; then show it.
In any case that you also need to show the same data in other page (not product page), the shortcode tags can be [product_options product_id="1" option_id="3" /]
FYI, unfortunately our docs is currently down and we are still migrating it to our own site.

Hi! First - great extension! I can see myself using this a *tonne*!
However, I'm having a bit of a problem integrating it into my site. It's running the Journal2 theme, but it's not so much the theme that's the problem, as much as the fact that I'm trying to put it into a custom tab (Journal2 lets you create any number of custom tabs on the Product Info page).
When I paste a shortcode into the "Description" field, it works fine. But if I paste it into content that will displayed in the tab beside the "Description" tab, it doesn't validate.
Is there any advice that you could possibly give? Thanks in advance!

You need to parse the shortcodes in journal2 tab description;
docs.
Code: Select all
if (class_exists('Shortcodes') && method_exists($this->shortcodes, 'do_shortcode')) {
$data['j2_tab_content'] = $this->shortcodes->do_shortcode($j2_tab_content);
}
Code above only example, you need to ask journal2 dev which part of the theme need to adapt to support Shortcodes ready.
