This page is created for Wordpress Theme Demo Bar plugin. Shortcode is introduced in version 1.4.

What can you do with shortcode ?

You can display theme info such as number of previews in posts and pages. You can output anything within these supported tags:

• Name of the theme (based on style.css)
• Description of the theme (based on style.css)
• Theme URI (based on style.css)
• Author name (based on style.css)
• Version number of the theme (based on style.css)
• Folder name of the theme
• URL to preview the theme (?themedemo=xxx)
• Total no. of previews
• URL to theme’s screenshot file
• URL to the theme’s info page (if exist)
• URL to the theme’s download page (if exist)
• URL to the page to buy the theme (if exist)

Example of what you can do

Retrieve the number of previews of my Lunated Theme and display it inline

Oh. Lunated theme has been previewed 8991 times in total.

Make a preview link to Lunated theme using default format

Preview Lunated (8991)

Understanding and Using Shortcode

Generally, you need to specify the theme folder name like:

To understand more about the shortcode and examples:

1. Get Single Info only

Use attribute ‘get’ to return only a single infomation

Valid values of attribute ‘get’ :
All tags available are the valid values of attribute ‘get’. However, you can only use one tag at once. (without curly bracket of course)

Example:

• Get number of previews of my Lunated theme and display it inline
  
• Get URL to screenshot file of my Lunated theme and display it inline
  

You can use media button to make the whole process a lot easier.

2. Formatted Output – return output based on format id

use attribute ‘format’

you can create and save a new format at plugin option page

Default format is : <a title="{name} has been previewed {hits} times" href="{demo}">Preview {name} ({hits})</a>

Example:

• Display using default format (you don’t have to specify the format id)
  
• Display using format id 1
  

You can use media button to make the whole process a lot easier.

3. Auto wrap output content with HTML paragraph <p> tag

use attribute ‘autop’

by default autop is set to true, which means it automatically wrap the output content with <p> tags

To display the content inline, use autop=”false”

Example:
