Genesis Style Shortcodes

The Genesis Style Shortcodes plugin enables you to easily add button, content box, and column shortcodes to the posts
and pages of your Genesis child theme. View the demo.

This plugin utilizes shortcodes. In this case, they are an alternative to adding the styles via CSS, which many people
are not comfortable touching (I will soon add a page on how to add these same styles using the CSS, which I highly
recommend learning if you have the time).

Credit: The included column shortcodes are the same as used by the outstanding Column Shortcodes for Genesis Child Themes plugin by Cathy Tibbles.

Available Shortcodes:

*[gss-button url=”#” target=”_blank” color=”gray”] Button Text [/gss-button]
Colors: gray, brown, black, blue, orange, green, red
Target: _blank, _self

Content Boxes:

*[gss-content-box color=”blue”]Content box text.[/gss-content-box]
Colors: blue, gray, green, purple, red and yellow.

Columns:

*[one-half first] and [one-half]
*[one-third first] and [one-third]
*[one-fourth first] and [one-fourth]
*[one-fifth first] and [one-fifth]
*[one-sixth first] and [one-sixth]
*[end-column]

For more documentation and examples see the plugin page.

1. Upload genesis-style-shortcodes folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

Will you be adding more shortcodes?

Yes, I also plan to add a TinyMCE addition to easily add the styles.

What shortcodes will you be adding?

Some on the drawing board are: Pull quotes, tabs and toggles.

Why aren’t my columns working?

If you are not using a Genesis child theme, or are using an older release that does not include the necessary CSS the column
shortcode will not work. However, you can add the CSS yourself.
