无法在功能中获取短代码内容

Question

I use a shortcode on my page like

[abc a="b"]test[/abc]

In my functions.php

add_shortcode('abc', function($atts, $content) {
    return $atts['a']." : ".$content;
});

And in my template somewhere

<p><?php echo do_shortcode('[abc]') ?></p>

$atts, $content are always empty.

Everything works fine in the Default template but not in mine.

I really appreciate if anyone can show me how to get it work in my custom template. Thanks

You should add these line of code in your custom page template , it will automatically apply filters on content like wpautop and other shortcodes

<?php if(have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while(have_posts()) : the_post() ?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
