Shortcodes are WordPress-specific shortcuts used to embed custom elements into your page that would normally require complicated code\/coding. The shortcode buttons are built into the Visual editor with all of the standard editing buttons.<\/p>\n
Examples of some WordPress content elements that can be easily added with shortcodes are accordions<\/a>, tabs<\/a>, and image captions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/body><\/html>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n \n
