shortcode mapper

I create below shortcode in function.php in child theme.

function page_output_vc_shortcode($atts) {

$pagecontent = ”;
$arg = array(
‘page_id’=>$atts[‘page_id’]
);
$the_query = new WP_Query($arg);

while ($the_query->have_posts()) : $the_query->the_post();

$title = get_the_title();

$pagecontent = ‘<h2 class=”widgettitle”>’.$title.'</h2>’;
$pagecontent .= get_the_content();

endwhile;

return $pagecontent;
}

add_shortcode(‘my_vc_page_output’, ‘page_output_vc_shortcode’);

but it is not displaying page content. Same code is working fine on other theme with VC but it is not working with Newspaper theme VC.

Is there any settings i have to do with newspaper theme?

I want to display whole page content.

page_id is param of the shortcode and you have to put pageid of one of the your page. Same shortcode is working fine on other theme. It is not working on Newspaper theme. It seems shortcode is not taking parameter page_id value in Newspaper theme.

What i am trying to do in my shortcode to display the whole page content in a box. I can use text element of VC for that but i don’t want other users to access VC if they want to make any changes.

Thanks

Hello Simon,
Thanks for the instance response. I tried the code which is working for you. But is not working for me.

It seems shortcode is not calling the function at all.

I changed the page_id to one of my page id. still nothing is displaying.

Below Report, it should display content of page as in report widget which i used texthtml.

I think my function is not calling at all. I tried below function still it is not displaying anything. I put the below function in functions.php under child theme. I have only “add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’, 1001);” with theme_enqueue_styles function and below function in child theme’s functions.php.

// Shortcode to output a page content in Visual Composer
function page_output_vc_shortcode() {

$test_var = “This is just for testing”;
return $test_var;
}

add_shortcode(‘my_vc_page_output’, ‘page_output_vc_shortcode’);

Do i have to put above function in other file? My shortcode is listed in VC element.

Thank you
