How to use [test] instead of [sc name="test"][/sc]?
Thank you a lot!

Hi Will,

Sorry for the delay. Unfortuantely we cannot create a shortcode with full shortcode name like [test]. W.r.t functionality it is all the same. Could you please let me know if you see any drawback in this approach?

Thanks,

Hello Aakash,

I am ttrying to do something similar. I want to repair a site that was done with Cherry plugin. Is there a way to use shortcodes such as [row] [span] etc… ?

My site is fontaneriaborja.com if you would like to have a look.

Thnaks.

Hi Borja,

Thanks for using Shortcoder. I understand your concern, but shortcoder is designed to work only with [sc name=""] format and not with [name] format.

The reason are

1) To avoid large number of shortcode parsings to occur on the post content.
2) To avoid conflict with other shortcodes (by other plugins, custom shortcodes) etc.

I agree that the the [name] format is simpler, but this method is works for all users and easy to track. Hope you understand 🙂

Thanks,
Aakash
