[Plugin: TTF Titles] Using in Pages and Posts – solution!

Since the older post (http://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/plugin-ttf-titles-using-in-pages-and-posts?replies=3) has been closed, I’m posting here now. I wanted to share a solution for anyone who is still looking for shortcode-compatibility of TTFTitles.

The problem with ttiefenbach’s code was a limit to WordPress’ shortcode-function. As it says in the docs (http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Function_Reference/add_shortcode) , you’re not allowed to ‘echo’ content within the function. Instead, you have to ‘return’ it. Here’s a working code for functions.php:

function the_ttftext_shortcode( $atts ) {
   extract( shortcode_atts( array(
      'text' => '',
      'echo' => false,
      'style' => '',
      'overrides' => '',
      ), $atts ) );

   return the_ttftext (esc_attr($text), false, esc_attr($style), esc_attr($overrides));
}
add_shortcode('ttf_text', 'the_ttftext_shortcode');

Now you should be able to use a shortcode for TTFTitles like this:
[ttf_text text="Hello World!" style="basic"]

cheers,
Micha
