Add custom [shortcodes] tinymce

Hello. I successful registered a custom shortcode in my function.php of my WordPress.
My shortcode works perfect on the backend in wordpress using tinymce.

But.. I want to add this shortcode to the frontend of tinymce that is implemented in the WPDM plugin.
I’m not able to get the custom shortcode as a button/icon in to the frontend tinymce.

The code that WPDM uses in the wpdm-add-package-file-front.php :

wp_editor(wpautop(stripslashes($cont)),'post_content', array('textarea_name' ► 'pack[post_content]', 'teeny' ► 1, 'media_buttons' ► 0,
'tinymce' ► array('toolbar1' ► 'bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,bullist,link,unlink'),

I tried to disable the ‘teeny’ (teeny ► 0) but then also the custom button is not showing, and I get a lot of unwanted toolbars.
I tried to add the custom button to the array without any luck:

wp_editor(wpautop(stripslashes($cont)),'post_content', array('textarea_name' ► 'pack[post_content]', 'teeny' ► 1, 'media_buttons' ► 0,
'tinymce' ► array('toolbar1' ► 'bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,bullist,link,unlink, my_custom_button'),

How can I add a custom button to the frontend tinymce editor that WPDM has implemented?

Thank you!

The WPDM uses wpdm-add-package-file-front.php to display the frontend tinymce editor.
I want to add a custom button to the toolbar, which I failed to do unfortunately.

You, or your developers used an array to add buttons to the toolbar:
'tinymce' ► array('toolbar1' ► 'bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,bullist,link,unlink'),

I want to add my custom button to this toolbar.
I have successful added my custom button to my wordpress backend tinymce editor.
I don’t know how to add it via the wpdm-add-package-file-front.php.
If I know how to add a registered custom button through this .php file, you helped me a lot!

I cannot give login detail, I have this running at a local flywheel pc at the moment.
But I can give you my functions.php how I added the custom button..

Thank you!

Yes, I’m talking about the frontend uploader.
