Parsing event shortcodes in other plugins for messages

Hey Guys,
I’ve asked this in the public forum and am hoping for a better turn around time on responses here.

Basically, I’ve written a plugin that allows a message to be stored. I’d like to be able to parse out the shortcodes from the message with all the normal event espresso shortcodes.

What I’m hoping for is something along the lines of:

$parser=new EE_message_parser();
$message=$parser->parse($message);

I’ve been told this isn’t possible, so I suspect that the message system may be initialized, but I might need to use a hook or something to overwrite the message it actually grabs or something along those lines.

But right now, I’m looking through tons of classes you guys have, and trying to map out the linkage, so far I’ve worked with a few of the classes and mapped out quite a bit, but it’s taking a long time to map all this out and find the proper code needed to do my task.

Think you guys can help me wade through this?

Thanks.

Hi there,

This is really beyond support and falls more into custom development. I can point you to the developer documentation for the Messages system:

https://github.com/eventespresso/event-espresso-core/tree/master/docs/E–Messages-System

Also, if you find a place where your project can benefit from adding a new hook, we welcome pull requests:
https://github.com/eventespresso/event-espresso-core/

Finally, if you have a specific query about any of the Message system classes, you can open an issue on Github, and one of the developers of EE will follow up with you.

I understand, but I’m not finding anything that helps me to know how to do this. I understand this is beyond the normal support, but both avenues don’t really help me to begin this.

Is there anyway I can hire someone to help me, or something along that lines?
