 * I need the ability for editors to generate shortcodes. How can this be done? 
   I have the 1.9.19 Pro version running on WordPress 5.2. I can add something in
   functions.php, but I don’t know what to add.
 * I was thinking something like this?
 * if ( is_admin() )
    { add_action( ‘admin_menu’, ‘add_3dflip_for_editors’ ); }
 * function add_3dflip_for_editors()
    { $role = get_role( ‘editor’ ); $role->add_cap(‘….???….’);}
