Title: do_shortcode command and wrapping content Last modified: January 7, 2019 --- # do_shortcode command and wrapping content * Resolved [vkristic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkristic/) * (@vkristic) * [7 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do_shortcode-command-and-wrapping-content/) * Hi! If I try to put your shortcode [passster] in a template file like this: ` ` it won’t wrap any of content. * My intention is to wrap a content in a template file like this: * ```
My content ... end of content
``` * However, [/passster] is not a shortcode for itself, so I would need a different closing shortcode, like [passsterclose] or something similar. Would that be possible anyhow? * The main problem is that I would change passwords in future and I want that every post and page update it’s password when I change it. * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fdo_shortcode-command-and-wrapping-content%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * [patrickposner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/patrickposner/) * (@patrickposner) * [7 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do_shortcode-command-and-wrapping-content/#post-11083786) * Hey [@vkristic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkristic/), * instead of using another shortcode I have build a function in 3.1.8 which you can use in your templates. * Here is an example: * ``` if ( true === passster\PS_Conditional::is_password_valid( '123' ) ) { the_content(); } ``` * Pass in your password and the function will handle the rest for you 🙂 * Best regards, Patrick * Thread Starter [vkristic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkristic/) * (@vkristic) * [7 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do_shortcode-command-and-wrapping-content/#post-11086584) * It works great!

If you want to use it with multiple passwords you need „are_passwords_valid“. * I have build you a small example here: * ``` $passwords = array('123', '345', '678' ); if ( true === passster\PS_Conditional::are_passwords_valid( $passwords ) ) { the_content(); } ``` * Best regards, Patrick * Thread Starter [vkristic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkristic/) * (@vkristic) * [7 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do_shortcode-command-and-wrapping-content/#post-11276917) * Something is still wrong. * I put this: * ``` $passwords = array( '123', '456', '789' ); if ( true === passster\PS_Conditional::are_passwords_valid( $passwords ) ) { the_content(); } ``` * And set multiple passwords in plugin settings to 123, 456, 789 * But it does not work. * Web: [https://download.bug.hr](https://download.bug.hr) - This reply was modified 7 years, 3 months ago by [vkristic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkristic/). * [patrickposner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/patrickposner/) * (@patrickposner) * [7 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do_shortcode-command-and-wrapping-content/#post-11276962) * Hey [@vkristic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkristic/), * sorry my fault. There is no need for an array, so use this instead: * ``` $passwords = '123,345,678'; if ( true === passster\PS_Conditional::are_passwords_valid( $passwords ) ) { the_content(); } ``` * That should do the trick. * Thread Starter [vkristic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkristic/) * (@vkristic) * [7 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do_shortcode-command-and-wrapping-content/#post-11277029) * Thank you!
