Hi have a shortcode that looks like this

 

[column][/column]

 

Trying to add a class to a column like this:

 

[column class=orange-row-full][/column]

 

Does not work.......Is this achievable?

No, it's not achievable. You can add attributes to shortcodes but they need to be defined in the shortcodes properties.

You'll need to edit your functions.php (or the file where your column shortcodes are defined).

 

Here's an example of one of my simpler shortcode functions:

 

function cryst4l_box( $atts, $content = null ) {
extract( shortcode_atts( array(
'class' => '',
), $atts ) );
return '<div class="u-box '.$class.'">' . do_shortcode($content) . '</div>';
}
add_shortcode('box', 'cryst4l_box');

 

You could add the highlighted parts to your function, or copy / paste it here and we'll be able to help.
