I have checked it and we can not include PHP file like this. You have to create the another shortcode and put it inside the main shortcode. * Kindly add below function in your theme functions.php file * ``` function edd_run_mycode( $atts, $content = null ) { extract( shortcode_atts( array( 'file' => null, ), $atts, 'edd_run_mycode' ) ); ob_start(); if( $file ) { include( $file ); } $content .= ob_get_clean(); } add_shortcode('edd_run_mycode', 'edd_run_mycode'); ``` * Also you can use shortcode like below * `` * I hope it will help you. * Thread Starter [hamoon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/graphirancom/) * (@graphirancom) * [3 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/restrict-php-with-edd/#post-15919641) * again not working. it can not run the php…shows nothing - This reply was modified 3 years, 10 months ago by [hamoon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/graphirancom/). * [Pratik Jain](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pratik-jain/) * (@pratik-jain) * [3 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/restrict-php-with-edd/#post-15920763) * Hi [@graphirancom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/graphirancom/) * It should work. I have double checked the code and I did not find anything in that. * Can you please provide me the exact shortcode which you are using in a page template? * I think [edd_restrict id=”any”] is not working at your side. You have to provide the relevant numeric ID. * Thread Starter [hamoon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/graphirancom/) * (@graphirancom) * [3 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/restrict-php-with-edd/#post-15920873) * No edd restric any works when i out text ibstead of php.

Can you see the output ‘Hi, This is a test…’? * `` * I have just removed the inner shortcode and placed the text.

And i found a shortcode for edd all access Which works with html too. But not with php. When it’s php , it can hide it but after buying prodct nothing shows * [Pratik Jain](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pratik-jain/) * (@pratik-jain) * [3 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/restrict-php-with-edd/#post-15949450) * Hi [@graphirancom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/graphirancom/) * I am little bit confused. When you have used below shortcode then does your ` post-ads.php` file is executed? Have you checked it by echo something in that file? * `` Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) The topic ‘restrict php with edd’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/easy-digital-downloads/assets/icon.svg?rev=3455837) * [Easy Digital Downloads – eCommerce Payments and Subscriptions made easy](https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-digital-downloads/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-digital-downloads/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/easy-digital-downloads/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/easy-digital-downloads/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/easy-digital-downloads/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/easy-digital-downloads/reviews/) ## Tags * [EDD](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/edd/) * 11 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Pratik Jain](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pratik-jain/) * Last activity: [3 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/restrict-php-with-edd/#post-15949450) * Status: resolved
