I was trying to insert a short-code for log-in/ log-out in the second header. But you have not made this possible in your theme.

Can you please advice on how to insert a short-code here?

Also (suggestion) I think you should make the 2nd header more flexibile, in order to e.g. turn off the social links and e.g. insert log-in text instead.

Thanks
Peter

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! You can use HTML on the topbar area. If you need to use shortcode then you can try the Header Widget Areas.

Cheers!

Hi there. Header Widget Area is an absolute no go.

There is no chance you will enable short codes for the header?

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! There aren’t any plans at the moment to do this. What you can do is use a test page to use your shortcode. Save and view the source code. The generated HTML will show, you can then copy that HTML and use it in the topbar.

It’s not convenient but it is a workaround you can apply.

Hope this helps – thanks!

Hi Peter,

Not yet, but you can try this solution. Add this code to your child theme’s functions.php

add_filter('x_option_x_topbar_content', 'do_shortcode');

This will enable shortcode on your topbar’s content. When you’re done, please add your shortcode within your topbar’s content.

Hope this helps.

Hi Peter,

Thank you for providing your login credentials.

Upon checking, I can see the icon shortcode works on your top bar which means that shortcodes are now enable in your topbar content.

Please note that there is no loginout shortcode by default

To add that link in your topbar, create file _topbar.php in wp-content/themes/x-child/framework/views/global
then copy the code below into that file.

<?php

// =============================================================================
// VIEWS/GLOBAL/_TOPBAR.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Includes topbar output.
// =============================================================================

?>

<?php if ( x_get_option( 'x_topbar_display' ) == '1' ) : ?>

  <div class="x-topbar">
    <div class="x-topbar-inner x-container max width">
      <span class="wploginout"><?php wp_loginout(); ?></span>
      <?php if ( x_get_option( 'x_topbar_content' ) != '' ) : ?>
      <p class="p-info"><?php echo x_get_option( 'x_topbar_content' ); ?></p>
      <?php endif; ?>
      <?php x_social_global(); ?>
      
    </div>
  </div>

<?php endif; ?>

Hope that helps
