Content Shortcodes creates a custom post type to organize repeatable content that can be embedded into your site using WordPress shortcodes. Never deal with widgets for repeatable content again.
Using the plugin is incredibly straightforward. You simply create new modular content for your site under the new Shortcodes post type, and then add that content to your site’s posts and pages with a simple shortcode.

This is a plugin based implementation of Daryl Koopersmith’s modular themes concept and patch 
(<a href="https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/12877" rel="nofollow ugc">#12877</a>). It provides the <code>get_template_module()</code> function, which allows for the creation 
of well-architected themes with highly reusable code. For more on the use of this function, 
read Daryl’s series of posts:

If you like this method of WordPress theme design, then vote up ticket <a href="https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/12877" rel="nofollow ugc">#12877</a>. The ideal 
scenario is for this functionality to be provided in WordPress core. This plugin is simply a proof 
of concept, and provides an easy way for theme developers to start playing with modular themes. The 
bulk of this plugin is directly from Daryl’s patch. The one exception being the 
 update_template_hierarchy() function, which duplicates much of the template selection logic from 
 wp-includes/theme.php in WordPress core.

Template Modules

Add the infrastructure to enable Daryl Koopersmith's modular theme concept.
