Thank you for your feedback.
You are absolutely right, there should be output options.
In fact, we are working to bring some exciting Bootstrap things via short codes at hand. And for the same thing, we are also adding some output options to existing short codes (i.e. Output tag type, CSS ID/Class).
Just a little wait and it will be out soon.
Thank you once again for your invaluable suggestion 🙂
I’m really hoping this plugin stays light and clean (i.e. NOT bootstrap stuff). There’s no need, IMHO, to add columns, buttons, styling, etc from Bootstrap for a plugin that simply outputs a post ID, custom field value, and the like.
Don’t get me wrong. It’s your plugin and you can go the direction you choose, but my preference is to be kept light and clean (i.e. not loading additional CSS or JS files).
Your opinion is of a great worth – noted with thanks.
We are trying to make the plugin as much lighter as possible – so the only required piece of code is executed. There’s still much room available on this side of improvement, and hopefully you will find it much better every time, in upcoming versions.
As far as 3rd party based features are concerned, we are trying to make the plugin configurable around these. We understand that people may not require all of the features from such a plugin, they should be able to turn off unwanted features.
tyvm for the feedback and for valuing my input. Good luck with it.
Hi Clifford,
We have just released version 1.5 of the plugin and glad to tell you that your suggestion has been implemented.
Now you can use 2 new attributes with the short codes:
- output: you can define an HTML tag to wrap the output of the short code in the tag. For example output=”p” will wrap the output in a paragraph tag.
- class: you can add CSS class to the output tag – default is the name of the short code.
I hope you will find these changes more useful. Once again, thank you very much for your great suggestion and support.
By the way, we haven’t yet released changes about Bootstrap, we are still in a process to bring these features, as a pleasure to the plugin – rather an annoying thing. That’s why it’s taking some time.
But of course, the new parameters will bring some happiness 😉
Best regards.
