Template Tag Shortcodes is a plugin that turns many of the WordPress <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags" title="WordPress template tags" rel="nofollow ugc">template tags</a> into easy-to-use shortcodes.
This plugin was created so end users could make use of the template tags within their posts and pages. Currently, this plugin creates 40+ shortcodes for use. Not all template tags are available as shortcodes, but you are more than welcome to request others be added.
See the FAQ or the included <code>readme.html</code> for a list of all available shortcodes.
<h3>What are the parameters for each shortcode?</h3>
There are several parameters for many shortcodes and none for others. Each shortcode represents its equivalent template tag. A list of the available parameters for each shortcode is included in the plugin’s <code>readme.html</code> file.
