Fear not, for shortcodes are not as complicated as they may seem. They are essentially small snips of code wrapped in square brackets that create dynamic content on your website without much coding knowledge.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_Shortcodes_in_WordPress\"><\/span>What are Shortcodes in WordPress?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>WordPress shortcodes are small pieces of code that can perform various functions and are enclosed in square brackets. They were introduced in WordPress 2.5 and have since grown in popularity due to their versatility. They can be used to embed videos, galleries, social media widgets, and more and can be added to posts, pages, and even theme files.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_Shortcodes_in_WordPress_PHP\"><\/span>Using Shortcodes in WordPress PHP<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re feeling adventurous enough to use shortcodes in your WordPress PHP code, you can register your shortcode with WordPress using the add_shortcode() function. This function requires a shortcode name and a function that will execute the shortcode logic. Additionally, shortcodes can have attributes that are passed onto the PHP function. <\/p>\n<p>Once you have registered your shortcode function and passed the attributes to it, you can perform the shortcode logic, which can range from database queries to creating an HTML layout. Shortcodes can also be used in theme files or widgets by calling the do_shortcode() function with the shortcode as a parameter.<\/p>\n<p>The shortcode API in WordPress is a powerful tool for developers to create robust shortcode functions that can add more flexibility to a website&#8217;s dynamic content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mysterious World of WordPress Shortcodes Have you ever come across the term &#8220;shortcode&#8221; while working on your WordPress site and felt a sudden burst&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7209,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3287],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/WORDPRESS-ULTIMATE-GUIDE-How-To-step-by-step-Tutorial.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9887"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9887"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9887\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7209"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9887"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9887"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9887"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
