Did you add the wp-config.php changes advised in the Special Magic Tags documentation (https://pods.io/docs/build/special-magic-tags/)?
You have to add define(‘PODS_SHORTCODE_ALLOW_EVALUATE_TAGS’,true); to your wp_config.php for these tags to be used.

Hi, Jory Hogeveen
thanks for your answer,
yes I had already included it in the wp-config.php, but I had no result.
If I call {@ID} in the pods templates I see it and it works correctly, but in the where clause in the shortcode no.
it certainly returns the IDs of the publications but not of the page / post
I don’t understand where the problem may be.
Thankyou
Dave

Did you check the SQL it generates?
people, is that a field? If so, you should probably use people.meta_value

The people field is a bi-directional field relationship with other People pods.
People is a multi select.
The People page includes the list of publications.
A publication belongs to multiple People.
The where clause indicates the ID reference by ID of the author page in the publications of the single People.
If I use the fixed numeric ID, (test mode)
where = “people.id = ‘8928’” I get the result.
Are you using the shortcode in Pods Templates or within the page content??

Hi Jory,
I am using the shortcode in page content.
Ah right! Nope, then the magic tags will not work.
This however would be a good improvement for Pods.
Currently Pod object related magic tags only work in Pods Templates.
I’ve made a report on GitHub: https://github.com/pods-framework/pods/issues/5734

Hi Jory,
i read the chanlog and in the new 2.7.23 release this is fixed.
Do you agree?
Added / Fixed: Support Pod related magic tags in shortcode query parameters. # 5734 (@JoryHogeveen)
Are there any updates in the guides on how to assign the post id?
Thanks for your help
Hi @airdaveit
See the example in the GitHub issue: https://github.com/pods-framework/pods/issues/5734
If you are using magic tags through a shortcode it will first run these through the Pod object the shortcode refers to.
Cheers, Jory
