在钩子中运行shortcode联系人表单-Wordpress代码段

Question

Ok this is my first ever attempt at PHP/code snippets so I apologies in advance if I'm way off the mark!

I have a Wordpress website with a Real Estate Plugin that allows a logged in user to contact an agent (Landlord if you will). I would like to extend the plugin to use my own contact form (I'm using the plugin contact form 7) so that we get the email rather than the agent (We would then contact the agent on the users behalf)

I found the contact agent hook below by searching through the plugin code

      /**
     * single_property_contact_agent
     */
    public function single_property_contact_agent()
    {
        $property_form_sections = ere_get_option('property_form_sections', array('title_des', 'location', 'type', 'price', 'features', 'details', 'media', 'floors', 'agent'));
        $hide_contact_information_if_not_login = ere_get_option('hide_contact_information_if_not_login', 0);
        if ($hide_contact_information_if_not_login == 0) {
            if (in_array('contact', $property_form_sections)) {
                ere_get_template('single-property/contact-agent.php');
            }
        } else {
            if (is_user_logged_in()) {
                if (in_array('contact', $property_form_sections)) {
                    ere_get_template('single-property/contact-agent.php');
                }
            } else {
                ?>
                <p class="ere-account-sign-in"><?php esc_attr_e('Please login or register to view contact information for this agent/owner', 'essential-real-estate'); ?>
                    <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm" data-toggle="modal"
                            data-target="#ere_signin_modal">
                        <?php esc_html_e('Login', 'essential-real-estate'); ?>
                    </button>
                </p>
                <?php
            }
        }

    }

My idea is to use code snippet below to hook onto the above and load our form instead (using the contact form shortcode)

add_action('single_property_contact_agent', 'reg_form_before_content');

function reg_form_before_content() {

echo do_shortcode('[contact-form-7 id="524" title="Register Interest"]');

   }

Currently nothing happens so I maybe way off the mark of what is possible here but if anyone can help I would be forever grateful

Many thanks!

You're on the mark, conceptually speaking. I think this is more or less The WordPress Way™: hooking into actions and filters in order to modify output/behaviour. So bravo to you there.

The trouble is, that function you're targeting doesn't implement any calls to apply_filter('filter_name', $data) , or do_action('hook_name', $var) .

There's a tricky norm in a lot of WordPress code where the name of a function is also the name of a filter or action. But that is a coincidence.

All this being said, you might look at the source of the ere_get_template function. Maybe it's employing a sort of template inheritance like WooCommerce does .

That is to say - if you create a template relative to your theme folder called single-property/contact-agent.php , it may check for a template you've provided, before defaulting to it's own.
