Evaluate additional shortcode tags deselects after saving a snippet

    For some reason every time I try and save an html snippet and check the box for “Evaluate additional shortcode tags, go and hit save and it deselects as if it’s not letting me use the feature. I use SliderPack Pro to show Slider Galleries that are tied to ACF Pro fields. The SliderPack Plugin offers shortcodes to embed the ACF galleries but I keep getting an error and the Evaluate additional shortcode tag just deselects.

    Evaluate PHP Code and Paragraphs checkboxes work fine but the shortcode checkbox doesn’t work so I can’t use shortcodes in the html content I’m working on and the project is due very shortly. Please help me figure out what is going on.

    Hi @whyknott,

    Can I clarify, are you using the shortcode, elementor widget or block editor methods to insert your content snippet?

    I’m using the native Snippet shortcode and adding it to a Thrive Theme Builder template.

    Here’s my code that I have in the saved snippet that is throwing an error. Every time I save the snippet it deselects to evaluate shortcodes!

    <?php $showhomelistingmodels = get_field('show_as_community_model');?>

<?php foreach($showhomelistingmodels as $showhomelistingmodel):?>

   <div class="model-home-row">
	   <div class="model-main-column1">
		
	<h5 class="model-home-post-title">The <?php echo $showhomelistingmodel->post_title;?></h5>
		   
      <img class="model-home-img" src="<?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail_url($showhomelistingmodel->ID,'full');?>">
		   
		  <?php do_shortcode("[sliders_pack id="13514"]");?>
		   
	</div>

	   <?php endforeach;?>

    I’m on a really tight deadline and this functionality is necessary for my project, any chance I could get help soon? I’m a paying customer.

    Hi @whyknott,

    Apologies. In future, please feel free to reach out to our premium support at https://help.codesnippets.pro/ for time-sensitive issues.

    In this particular case, you don’t need to worry about the box deselecting. Once you’ve copied the shortcode, then it will remain in place for that shortcode.

    Alternatively, I would recommend using the block editor or Elementor widget instead, as they are built to be more resilient when it comes to storing options.
