WordPress: wordpress short tag/coding issue

[Anonymous]

hey everyone

so after reading http://girlswhogeek.com/tutorials/2011/creating-custom-wordpress-shortcode I set about making my own shortcode. However, I am a little stuck and need some help.

So I’ve made a basic wordpress plugin which creates a short tag “[review id=1]“

This short tag would then query a mysql database and display the info for the review with $id 1 which works fine.

The problem is, part of the review calls on another plugin, http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mombly-review-rating/ to display the rating as in stars by displaying “[Rating:4/5]“

However, rather than displaying the picture, “[Rating:4/5]” is written down whereas normally I’d get 4 stars.

Is there anyway I can fix that?

Cheers

Yikes are you really still using that plugin? It hasn’t been updated in about 3 years. That is just asking for trouble

I know, but it does the job really well, I mean I put “[Rating:4/5]” and get the star rating right away…pretty much exactly what I need. Do you have any other alternatives?

Is it possible that the mombly-review-rating displays the star image using a relative URL? Maybe you’re seeing the alt text of the image.
