Hi,

I would like to display blocks using shortcodes on theme files (on any template files). I want to show 6 posts from any category but filter them with tags (on block 6) . Here are the settings: http://screencast.com/t/hpbYMRYom

Please provide me the PHP code.

Regards

Hi,

Use page builder to create and customize your block then move to classic mode get the shortcode and add it using the do_shortcode function in which template you like.
You can search the forum or the web on how to add the shortcode using this method.

Thanks

Hi

I used this before: 

<?php
 do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][td_block6 limit="5"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column   width="1/1"][/vc_column][/vc_row]');
?>

But didn’t work. Any idea?

Hi,

Add echo in front of the function. As I said I suggested this method before, you just had to search the forum https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/get-block3-as-shortcode/#post-15746

Thanks
