Custom template for wordpress plugin
I am looking for a solution to add a custom template for a shortcode plugin. But I cannot do it successfully.
I created a template folder in my plugins folder and placed a custom template in it. I want to show this pattern by putting a shortcode. For this I wrote the following piece of code.
function wp_parse_login()
{
add_action('template_redirect', 'my_template');
function my_template()
{
include ('template/login.php');
exit;
}
}
add_shortcode('parse_login_page','wp_parse_login');
but it doesn't work. I have included this file in my main plugin file. I think I'm leaving the hooks.

Here's an example from the WordPress Codex
function wp_parse_login() {
ob_start();
include ('template/login.php');
return ob_get_clean();
}
add_shortcode('parse_login_page','wp_parse_login');

First, you set the page template to DB. For example:
$table_post_meta = $wpdb->prefix.'postmeta';
$meta_data = array(
'post_id' => $post_id, (Get dynamically post id of a page)
'meta_key' => '_wp_page_template',
'meta_value' => 'template/login.php' (Give the file path)
);
$wpdb->insert($table_post_meta,$meta_data) or die(mysql_error());
You write in your code on your template page:
function wp_parse_login() {
ob_start();
include ('template/login.php');
return ob_get_clean();
}
add_shortcode('parse_login_page','wp_parse_login');
I hope you find your solution.
