before i get burnt for asking, i have tried for days, watched videos, read stuff but its hard for an old fart to learn new tricks.

a brief outline of what i've done so far (without previous knowledge of wordpress or php)

 

1. created wordpress website - its going to be a subscription site for livedrive reseller

2. i have used plugins downloaded throught Wordpress and short codes in pages

 

in order to make the site automatic i need working php api's , Livedrive provide example api's but no support.

 

i have downloaded and installed wamp for testing.

 

i have made a folder in the plugin folder called api examples the files won't run if i try making a plugin file and activating but i have got them to work by copying the path into internet explorer like so;

 

http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/apiexamples/closeuser.php which looks like screenshot 1 ld

 

this is one of several php files, which works in this page if i put in the api key and click submit.

 

I try copying the code and save it as a new php file and place it in  a new folder called test-livedrive inside the plugin folder.

 

my problems are;

 

i can't work out how to get a short code to work where i place the shortcode in a new page

 

if i paste the code as it shows into a page it shows all sorts of crap before the form at the bottom see screenshots 234

and if i put the my api key in the field box it fails.

 

so i'm failing miserably, i have even tried to find a freelancer on freelancer.co.uk but prices are about £500  i simply can't afford and seems an awful lot when a lot of coding is there, it just needs sorts.

 

appreciate and help/guidance/examples

 

thanks, duncpost-203058-0-20927400-1480766617_thumb.pngpost-203058-0-97200000-1480768084_thumb.pngpost-203058-0-57257800-1480768092_thumb.pngpost-203058-0-01674200-1480768101_thumb.png

We'd need to see some actual code to see if there's an issue there. Having said that, you'll get shortcode working using the add_shortcode hook in your theme or plugin's functions file. It's also possible to use do_shortcode() in your template or functions file(s).

 

In addition, from a quick Google search it looks like there are a couple WP plugins already developed that may make your life a bit easier, especially if you don't know WP or PHP.
