WordPress plugin to add some simple and useful Shortcodes to Beans theme framework themes.

Beans Simple Shortcodes

Plugin to add the simple shortcodes for displaying theme and post information easily.

All shortcodes:

• Output html content and markdown using Beans HTML API functions.
• Have shortcode default and output filters.
• Can be enabled or disabled individually in the admin.

So not to load unnecessary code, each Shortcode has a checkbox on the Beans Simple Shortcodes settings page to disable the shortcode and not load its PHP function. Beans is fast, these shortcodes shouldn't slow it down!

Very much a work in progress:

Development lans:

• Load shortcodes via configuration, allow users to add other shortcodes and hook into the admin interface and enable/disable functionality.
• Vary shortcode admin metaboxes opacity depending on enabled/disabled state.

Post Shortcodes include:

(only usable on posts/post-meta areas)

beanssimpleshortcodes's Issues

Sorry, you can't activate this plugin unless the Beans framework is installed and a child theme is activated.

Hey Jeff

I am testing your plugin through Desktop Server (just updated and is using a higher version of PHP).
I am getting the "Sorry, you can't activate this plugin unless the Beans framework is installed and a child theme is activated." even though I have Beans and a child theme installed.

It might be another offline thing.
Hmm I tested this on a live site as well. It is giving the same warning message.

So for now I am not able to use the plugin. I am looking forward to testing it out!
