<h3>Shortcodes</h3>
<ul>
<li><code>[ppfe_edit_post]</code> — Main create/edit form.</li>
<li><code>[ppfe_my_posts]</code> — Current user’s post list with edit links.</li>
<li><code>[ppfe_form]</code> — Alias of <code>[ppfe_edit_post]</code>.</li>
</ul>
Attributes for <code>[ppfe_my_posts]</code>:
<ul>
<li><code>edit_page</code> — URL of the editor page (e.g. <code>edit_page="/write/"</code>)</li>
</ul>
