If you find this enhancement useful then donate. Donations encourage the continued update of this theme and without that encouragement, continued development could end.

Enhancement: The following patch will add the WordPress 'do_shortcode()' function to the 'Limited PHP Code' allowing it to be used in the virtual templates.

For example: say you use a plugin that allows responsive rotating images - like Soliloquy - and if supports shortcakes. With this enhancement you could edit the virtual sub template 'header.php' and change it from this:

HTML Code:

<div id="banner-bg" class="cf">
	<div id="banner" class="row">
		<div id="logo-area" class="col5">
			<<?php bfa_if_front_else( 'h1', 'h3' ); ?> id="sitetitle">
				<a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>"><?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?></a>
			</<?php bfa_if_front_else( 'h1', 'h3' ); ?>>
			<p id="tagline"><?php bloginfo( 'description' ); ?></p>
		</div>
		<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 
			'container' => 'nav', 
			'container_class' => 'menu-wrapper col7', 
			'container_id' => 'menu1-wrapper', 
			'menu_id' => 'menu1', 
			'menu_class' => 'cf menu', 
			'theme_location' => 'menu1', 
			'fallback_cb' => 'bfa_page_menu' 
		) ); ?>
	</div>
</div>

<a href="<?php bloginfo( 'rss2_url' ); ?>" class="rsslink" title="<?php _e( 'Subscribe to RSS Feed', 'montezuma' ); ?>"></a>
		

<div id="breadcrumbs1-bg">
	<nav id="breadcrumbs1" class="breadcrumbs lw">
		<?php bfa_breadcrumbs( 'breadcrumbs1' ); ?>
	</nav>
</div>

to something like this:

HTML Code:

<div id="banner-bg" class="cf">
	<div id="banner" class="row">
		<div id="logo-area" class="col12">
			<a href="http://www.yourdomain.com/">
               <img class="logo" alt="" src="http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-content/images/yourlogo.jpg">
            </a>
		</div>
  </div>
  
	<div id="header-image-row" class="row">
		<div id="header-image-area" class="col12">
  			<?php echo do_shortcode('[soliloquy id='34']'); ?>
		</div>
  	</div>
  
  <div id="pklmenu" class="row">
		<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 
			'container' => 'nav', 
			'container_class' => 'menu-wrapper col12', 
			'container_id' => 'menu1-wrapper', 
			'menu_id' => 'menu1', 
			'menu_class' => 'cf menu', 
			'theme_location' => 'menu1', 
			'fallback_cb' => 'bfa_page_menu' 
		) ); ?>
	</div>
</div>

This would create a 12 column header image that would use the soliloquy gallery '34' and display it on each page of the site.

you can install this by editing 'montezuma/includesget_whitelist.php' and adding the folowing code after line 488 (which is a blank line)

HTML Code:

		'do_shortcode' => array( 
			'type' => 'single',
			'examples' => array(
				"<?php echo do_shortcode('[gallery]'); ?>" 
					=> __( 'This function allows you to insert shortcodes into the Montezuma virtual temlpates', 'montezuma' ),
				"<?php echo do_shortcode('[soliloquy id='34']'); ?>" 
					=> __( 'This example show how you would use a shortcode provided by the Soliloquy plugin', 'montezuma' ),
			),
			'info' => __( 'This functions does not do the short code by itself. Always use it in combination with <echo>echo</code> as shown in the example.', 'montezuma' ),
		),

or you can replace the existing 'montezuma/includes/get_whitelist.php' with the attached file.

This will be in the next release.
