Add shortcodes

Code:

<?php // Simple Shortcode # Adds a shortcode called 'hello'. function helloworld() { return 'Hello World!'; } add_shortcode('hello', 'helloworld'); // Shortcode with parameter # Adds a shortcode that allows parameters. # function myname($name) { extract(shortcode_atts(array( 'name' => 'name' ), $name)); return 'My name is' . $name; } add_shortcode('user', 'myname'); # Example: [user name="Filip"] # // BB Code style function font_bold( $attr, $content = null ) { return '<span style="font-weight: bold">' . $content . '</span>'; } add_shortcode('bold', 'font_bold'); // BB Code with parameters function colorpick( $color, $content = null ) { extract(shortcode_atts(array( 'color' => 'color' ), $color)); return '<span style="color: ' . $color . '">' . $content . '</span>'; } add_shortcode('font', 'colorpick'); ?>

Instructions:

As WordPress doesn’t allow code in posts and pages, shortcodes is a good way to implement php-functions in your content.

There are three different kinds of shortcodes:

• [myshortcode] – Simple shortcode.
• [myshortcode id="5"] – Shortcode with parameter.
• [myshortcode]Hello World![/myshortcode] – Shortcode goes BB Code.
