Shortcodes
As we've been working on Cascade, we looked at our old systems to bring you some updated shortcodes. Every shortcode is surrounded by square brackets. e.g. [shortcode]
.
Due to how Cascade process content, we won't be able to write out the full shortcode, with brackets but will provide you with code samples.
Note: Shortcodes must be wrapped inside of a valid HTML element. In most instances this will not be an issue unless the shrortcode is the only item on a page.
Forms
[form id="FORM_ID"]
- The form ID can be found inside of Form Manager.
YouTube
[youtube id="VIDEO_ID"]
- The video ID can be found after the ?w=
of the youtube URL. e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsWYS0-rTmg the video ID is KsWYSO-rTmg
.
Vimeo
[vimeo id="VIDEO_ID"]
- Similar to the YouTube embed, copy the video ID into the ID parameter. e.g. https://www.vimeo.com/6370469 the video ID is 6370469
Twitter Feed
[twitter id="USERNAME"]
- Already have a twitter username? Great, just drop it into this id field and save the page.
Single Tweet
[tweet url="TWEET_URL"]
- Simply copy and paste the URL from Twitter into the URL parameter of this shortcode.
Facebook Page
[fbpage url="PAGE_URL"]
- Simply copy and paste the URL from Facebook into the URL parameter of this shortcode.
Single Facebook Post
[fbpost url="POST_URL"]

News/Blog Brief
[latest_news]
[latest_news pics="true"]
[latest_blog]
[latest_blog title="Deans Blog"]
- Simply type one of the respective codes inside the brackets and it will cultivate the 5 most-recent posted news or blog posts from your project's /news/ or /blog/ directory.
If you would like it to include the image thumbnails, add pics="true"
as part of your shortcode.
If you would like the title to be something other than "Latest Blog" or "Latest News", add title="[new name]"
as part of your shortcode.

[pullquote text="Content" float="left|right"]
