# Better Shortcode?

 * I’m using a theme builder and would like to implement the fields in a specific
   layout. However, the shortcode options available in the documentation don’t specify
   shortcode for each field–only ONE section as a whole. Is there a way to take 
   a field with shortcode? For example, I don’t want to use [event id=”3169″] as
   this would post the WHOLE event. I want just bits and pieces of field data to
   lay out in my own custom layout.

 * Hi [@toad78](https://wordpress.org/support/users/toad78/)
 * Thank you for using our plugin. We don’t have the custom layout but you can create
   a custom layout with some builder they have the option to show specific fields
   from the post type.
 * For example like this plugin which allows you to create a custom grid from the
   post type
    [https://wordpress.org/plugins/void-elementor-post-grid-addon-for-elementor-page-builder/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/void-elementor-post-grid-addon-for-elementor-page-builder/)
 * I will talk with our team if possible we will provide such a way to do that.
 * Thank you

 * I’m afraid with the theme I’m using, it doesn’t offer compatibility with your
   plugin to post that specific post type, which is unfortunate.
 * Would something [like this](https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-content-shortcode/)
   possibly work with your product?
