Daily Tip: Useful Plugin Displays All Available WordPress Shortcodes
October 22, 2011
Shortcode Reference is perhaps one of the most handy WordPress plugins I’ve found in a long time.
The Problem: If you have a lot of plugins that utilize shortcodes for their output, it can be difficult to remember which ones are available to you and how you can use them.
The Solution: Install and activate the Shortcode Reference plugin. It gives you a handy reference for all available shortcodes and displays it in the post editor – right where you need it! Clicking on a specific shortcode will also show you what its origin is as well as any available documentation from the plugin’s source code. How handy is that?!
This is a plugin that is useful for virtually every WordPress site, in my opinion. I’ve installed it on one of my blogs, as pictured here, and it works like a charm.
Download the Shortcode Reference plugin for free from the WordPress plugin repository and never forget your shortcodes again!
Because this plugin/widget is provided free of charge, I simply ask you to link back to Pressography.com in a post on your blog, or from one of your sites. It doesn't need to be anything fancy - just a note saying that you're using it, and whether or not you like it. However, there is no requirement that you do this, you're free to use the plugin regardless.
