Shortcodes

Shortcode functionality that comes with Simple Share Buttons Plus.

You can add share buttons to any page you wish, by simply adding the shortcode [ssbp] anywhere within the content.

[ssbp] also accepts url and title attributes, allowing you to add share buttons to a page that shares another. Here is an example of the shortcode with these attributes added:

[ssbp url="https://simplesharebuttons.com" title="Simple Share Buttons"]

It is possible to add share buttons within template files, or within any custom plugins/functions you may have in place. To do so, use the WordPress function do_shortcode:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[ssbp]'); ?>

If within the Loop, you can also add in the aforementioned url and title attributes like so:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[ssbp title="'.get_the_title().'" url="'.get_permalink().'"]'); ?>

The PHP tags may not be required, please be prepared to rollback your changes and request help if needed.

To hide buttons from a page or post that has share buttons within it (i.e. you have enabled pages/posts in your setup), add [ssbp_hide] within the content.
