Hi John,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, using htmlentities
was one way that I tried to get around processing shortcodes, but unfortunately, this still happens anyways. (and the output of the shorcodes have all html entities replaced.
In other words, I want the shortcode to be stored as [my_shortcode] and only output it when I call that field on the front end…now the field is actually storing the shortcode output itself. Hopefully that makes sense.
Thanks in advance
