Shortcodes - 8:18 AM, 6/7/2011



What is a shortcode?

A shortcode is a ‘tag’ or a short hand way of getting something done. For example if you want a youtube video to appear in your post, you could do it the hard way and enter all the flash code or simply use the shortcode [youtube:http://url]

We then take care of all the ugly work in the background.

Why should I use shortcodes?

There are 2 main reasons

  1. For compatibility, We take care of the background code, so if the provider changes something, (the way they embed their videos for example), then we will be right here to change it for you.
  2. For ease of use, a shortcode is a lot easier to use than the actual html/flash code.

I want a short code!

Simply post a comment here and we will add the new Shortcode as requests are made.
I will update this list as time goes by with instructions on how to use each tags.
