Hi. I sense I'm doing something stupid as instructions seem quite clear. ;D
I want to use a modified posts_loop_template.php so I've put a copy into my child theme folder and renamed it mv1_posts_template.php and made the changes.
I'm then using the following shortcode in my page
[ic_add_posts template='mv1_posts_template.php' ids='1014']
(I'm using a specific post number just while I test this out) :(
BUT ..... when I display the page, the inserted post is still using the default post_loop_template.php
Help .. what have I missed/
Regards,
maybe you should contact whoever created the posts_loop_template.php file.

Thank you for the suggestion illori. But the person is not accessible. :(
It's difficult to suggest anything because we have no idea what you're talking about, I've never seen such code before...
From the "code" in the first post, it would appear that the OP is trying to do something with WordPress "shortcodes"
which means that any changes for the target template will almost certainly have to be made on the WORDPRESS add-on side of things...
However, the point stands... since we have no idea, whatsoever, what that short code is or does or what that template is or does -- you really will have to ask the author.
What you have is not part of SMF or supportable by us, since we didn't make it and have no idea what it is.
