Hi all, here is an update.

I am using a text input field to add a shortcode. My shortcode looks like this:

[fancygallery id="1" album="6"]

in my php page, I am doing this:

<?php
	$myvalue = get_field( "cf_custom_gallery" ); 

	
    echo do_shortcode("$myvalue");
?>

but it is not outputting. If I manually do this:

<?php
	
    echo do_shortcode('[fancygallery id="1" album="6"]');
?>

it works.

ANy suggestions ?

Thanks,

JC
