Shortcodes

Shortcodes use attributes, some are optional, some are required. We will use the following syntax to specify required and optional attributes:

[shortcode-name required='this|that' required='%d' optional='%s']

• attribute in bold is required
• attribute in italic is optional
• this|that means you can choose between „this“ OR „that“
• %d represents a number
• %s represents a piece of text

Some shortcodes (Button for example) can have content (i.e. the text you see inside the button.) These are used like this:

[shortcode-name attributes]Content of the shortcode[/shortcode-name]

Some of the Engagement Platform sites use a visual editor button to insert some shortcodes. You can select these using the following icon:

• Instagram feed
• Twitter feed
