 * Is there a shortcode for all the words in all my posts and a shortcode for the
   average of the words in a post?

 * The only shortcode that currently exists shows the word count for the given post
   it’s included on.
 * I’ve had several people request shortcodes that offer more (like total words)
   so I might put that in a future release but for now that is not an available 
   feature.
 * Thanks for trying to plugin out.

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for your reply. Maybe there is already a way to create shortcodes. I use
   the plugin ‘easy code placement’ to make shortcodes. One of the php codes I use
   with this plugin is:
 * <?php
    $count_posts = wp_count_posts(); $published_posts = $count_posts->publish;
   echo $published_posts; ?>
 * You could already help me when you have the php codes for the ‘total count of
   words in all posts’ and the php code for ‘the average count of words in a post’.
 * I hope you can help me.

 * Willem,
 * I just sat down today to add some new shortcodes. Would you be willing to email
   me (support at linksoftwarellc.com) and help me out a bit?
 * Thanks,
    Brian.
