This plugin provides shortcodes that manage multi column layouts. 
Provides the following shortcodes [one_half], [one_third], [two_thirds], [one_fourth], [three_fourths], [one_fifth], [two_fifth], [three_fifth], [four_fifth], [one_sixth], [five_sixth] and also the same with last (for instace [one_half_last]) that allows to determine the last column.
Development based on the development done by SimpleThemes in the WordPress Skeleton Theme (http://themes.simplethemes.com/skeleton/).
I liked very much that functionality but the theme is not the one I prefer. So I decided to extract that functionality.
<h4>Shortcodes</h4>
<ul>
<li>[one_half]</li>
<li>[one_third]</li>
<li>[two_thirds]</li>
<li>[one_fourth]</li>
<li>[three_fourths]</li>
<li>[one_fifth]</li>
<li>[two_fifth]</li>
<li>[three_fifth]</li>
<li>[four_fifth]</li>
<li>[one_sixth]</li>
<li>[five_sixth]</li>
<li>[one_half_last]</li>
<li>[one_third_last]</li>
<li>[two_thirds_last]</li>
<li>[one_fourth_last]</li>
<li>[three_fourths_last]</li>
<li>[one_fifth_last]</li>
<li>[two_fifth_last]</li>
<li>[three_fifth_last]</li>
<li>[four_fifth_last]</li>
<li>[one_sixth_last]</li>
<li>[five_sixth_last]</li>
</ul>
You can use the short codes in order to break text into columns. The last column must be created using the last shortcode. For instance, if you want to have a 2 identical width colums you have to use [one_half] shortcodes. So [one_half]First column[/one_half][one_half_last]Second column[/one_half_last] will do that job.

<h4>PHP API for Developers</h4>
Third-party plugins and themes can generate QR codes programmatically using the <code>Effortless_QRCode_Native</code> class.

// Make sure the plugin is active
if ( class_exists( 'Effortless_QRCode_Native' ) ) {

 // Generate a QR code PNG
 $result = Effortless_QRCode_Native::generate_png( 'https://example.com' );

 if ( $result ) {
 echo '<img src="' . esc_url( $result['url'] ) . '" alt="QR Code">';
 }
}
?>
</code></pre>
With Custom Options:
<pre><code><?php
$result = Effortless_QRCode_Native::generate_png(
 'https://example.com', // Data to encode (required)
 200, // Size in pixels (default: 150)
 '#0073aa', // Dark color (default: #000000)
 '#ffffff', // Light color (default: #ffffff)
 'H', // ECC level: L, M, Q, H (default: M)
 4 // Margin in modules (default: 4)
);

if ( $result ) {
 // $result['url'] - Public URL to the PNG image
 // $result['path'] - Server filesystem path to the PNG file
 // $result['debug'] - Debug information string
}
?>
</code></pre>
Display in a Template:
<pre><code><?php
if ( class_exists( 'Effortless_QRCode_Native' ) ) {
 $result = Effortless_QRCode_Native::generate_png( get_permalink() );

 if ( $result ) : ?>
 <div class="my-qr-code">
 <img src="<?php echo esc_url( $result['url'] ); ?>"
 alt="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Scan to visit this page', 'my-theme' ); ?>"
 width="150"
 height="150">
 </div>
 <?php endif;
}

</ul>
<h4>Error Correction Levels</h4>
