Content Slider Block [csb] Shortcode

The Content Slider Block (CSB) shortcode is a tool that retrieves and displays a specific WordPress post. The shortcode uses the ‘id’ attribute to identify the post. It then extracts the post content and parses it into blocks. The first block is then rendered and returned, effectively displaying the content of the specified post.

Shortcode: [csb]

Parameters

Here is a list of all possible csb shortcode parameters and attributes:

• id – It’s the unique identifier for the specific post.

Examples and Usage

Basic example – In this example, we are using the ‘csb’ shortcode to display a specific post by referencing its ID.

[csb id=3 /]

Advanced examples

Here we are using the ‘csb’ shortcode to display multiple posts by referencing their IDs. The posts will be displayed in the order of the IDs listed.

[csb id="3,6,9" /]

In this next advanced example, we are using the ‘csb’ shortcode to display a specific post by referencing its ID and specifying additional parameters. The ‘size’ parameter adjusts the display size of the post, and the ‘align’ parameter adjusts the alignment of the post on the page.
