Function bloginfo output via shortcodes
WordPress has a great feature bloginfo() with which you can display basic user information on your site. This function can be used anywhere in your blog template, but what if you need to use the data, which are returned by the function in the article itself. Correct answer is one, need to use shortcodes.
To use shortcodes, which will output the same information, which the function outputs bloginfo() required in file functions.php your theme insert a special hook.

function bloginfoSC( $atts ) { extract(shortcode_atts(array( 'value' => '', ), $atts)); return get_bloginfo($value); } add_shortcode('bloginfo', 'bloginfoSC'); |
After adding the hook, the data will be displayed using the shortcode [bloginfo value=’name’]. Let me give you a few more examples for clarity.:
|
1 2 3 4 |
[bloginfo value='name'] [bloginfo value='url'] [bloginfo value='description'] [bloginfo value='charset'] |
And now let's consider what the value attribute can be and what it can display if it is entered into the shortcode.
