Scripts n Styles [sns_shortcode] Shortcode

The Scripts-n-Styles shortcode is a handy tool for customizing your WordPress content. It fetches specific post data, checks for any custom shortcodes, and returns the output. The ‘sns_shortcode’ extracts attributes from the shortcode, checks if there are any saved shortcodes related to the post, and then outputs the shortcode content. If no shortcode is found, it outputs the original content.

Shortcode: [sns_shortcode]

Parameters

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

• name – Identifier of the shortcode or hoop to output
• content – Default content if no matching shortcode or hoop is found

Examples and Usage

Basic example – The shortcode is used to retrieve a specific post’s metadata based on its ID. In this case, the ID is passed as a parameter to the shortcode.

[sns_shortcode name=1 /]

Advanced examples

Here, the shortcode is used to retrieve a specific post’s metadata based on its ID. If the metadata does not exist, the shortcode will return the content passed within the shortcode tags.

[sns_shortcode name=1]Fallback content here[/sns_shortcode]

In this example, the shortcode is used to retrieve a specific post’s metadata based on its ID. If the metadata does not exist, the shortcode will try to retrieve the global ‘hoops’ option based on the same ID. If both attempts fail, the shortcode will return the content passed within the shortcode tags.

[sns_shortcode name=1]Fallback content here[/sns_shortcode]

Please note that in all examples, the ‘name’ attribute represents the ID of the post. You need to replace ‘1’ with the ID of the post for which you want to retrieve the metadata.
