Reset to default 1You can't return the include statement. And you shouldn't use include template parts.
And here's how to do it correctly:
function custom_code() {
ob_start();
get_template_part( 'custom-template.php' );
return ob_get_clean();
}
add_shortcode( 'custom_shortcode', 'custom_code' );
So what we're doing here is:
- Start output buffering.
- Include given template part using
get_template_partfunction. - Return all the output generated by that template and delete the buffer.
