bw_get_the_content() – Expand shortcodes in the content

Description

Expand shortcodes in the content

Originally entitled 'Safely invoke the "the_content" filter' We only really want shortcode expansion to take place against the content So why not use "get_the_excerpt" instead? It's probably because some shortcodes don't work for that filter. OR is that a load of bolleaux? Why not just invoke do_shortcode() ?

Usage

bw_get_the_content( $content );

Parameters

$content

( mixed ) required –

Returns

void
