<h3>Icons</h3>

<p>The plugin is using <a href="https://heroicons.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Heroicons</a> so you can go to its website and see what icons are available to use within this plugin.</p>
<p>You can use <code>solid</code> and <code>outline</code> icons.</p>
<h3>Types</h3>
<p>A callout box can have multiple types:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>primary</code></li>
<li><code>success</code></li>
<li><code>danger</code></li>
<li><code>warning</code></li>
</ul>
<p>By default, the callout box is <code>primary</code>.</p>
<h3>Icon Methods</h3>
<p>The icon method can be 2 types:</p>
<ul>

</ul>
<p>By default, for shortcodes and Gutenberg the icon method is <code>solid</code>.</p>
<h3>Shortcode</h3>
<p>For WordPress Classic Editor or even Gutenberg, you can use the shortcode:</p>
<pre><code>[wp-callout icon="check-circle" type="primary" method="solid"]
Welcome to WordPress. This is the post content.
[/wp-callout]
</code></pre>
<p>The shortcode supports 3 attributes:</p>

</ul>
<h3>Gutenberg Block</h3>
<p>For Gutenberg users, you can use <strong>Callout Box</strong> block.</p>
<p>Every Gutenberg Callout Box, you can change the icon, type and method using the block properties.</p>
<p>Those properties are the same for the shortcode.</p>
<p>Then, you just type your callout box content inside the Gutenberg block.</p>
<h3>Block Presets</h3>
<p>When you insert a new Gutenberg Block Callout you can select 1 of the 4 presets installed in the plugin:</p>
<ul>
<li>Information</li>
<li>Success</li>

</ul>
<p>After you select one preset, your callout box will change its background color and icon.</p>

<p>Adding a callout box (like a sidebar within a post) is a cumbersome<br />
process if you try to do it by hand.  You could code a stylesheet to<br />
handle this, but this won’t work for people who use feed readers to<br />
read your articles.</p>
<p>Hence the need for this plugin.  Define the styles you want to use<br />
in the settings page, and then create a new callout box like this:</p>
<p>[callout title=”A demo callout.”]Callout content here.[/callout]</p>
