So I am trying to use the e commerce plugin from getshopped.org
I made a dynamic template called secondary pages in wordpress
The problem is when i use this template on my shopping cart page my shortcode called [shoppingcart] does not work
When I change it back to "Use global default” the shortcode works.
The problem is use global default shows breadcrumbs and the page title which I don't want so I am curious if anyone knows why this is happening and what I can do to fix it.

Hi kccorbett4,

My guess is that the shortcode isn't able to load inside the dynamic template layout you have set up.

For a shop, I would recommend using a regular page for the content to have the least interference possible. Then use CSS to target that specific page and remove the breadcrumbs and page title if you don't want them to show on that page.

You could also try just using a dynamic template that is only page/post content.

If I tell it to just display page or post content it still doesn't work. Could you please tell me what I need to put into the CSS to remove the title and breadcrumbs?

Hey kccorbett4,

Sure thing, can you provide a link to the page? Do you want it targeted to just that single page or others as well?
