You really need to direct this suggestion to the various shortcode plugin authors.
I think so yes. This is really plugin territory rather than something that would be part of core. Thee are quite a few plugins out there that have been developed specifically to assist with online book publishing via WordPress. Their authors might be the best people to talk to about these particular shortcodes.
Found one, Oasis Workflow which would look promising if it only included instructions.
Not explained well. Not for someone with my learning disability.
Understandable, I recommend reaching out to them at https://www.oasisworkflow.com/submit-a-query
I’m the developer for Oasis Workflow plugin.
I came across this thread and would help answer any questions related to Oasis Workflow plugin.
However, Oasis Workflow is not a shortcode plugin. It is a workflow plugin, specifically targeting WordPress editorial review flow. The plugin allows you to create custom editorial workflows (multi-step workflows) using our drag and drop workflow builder.
The plugin comes with a lot of features for managing your editorial review/publish process.
It also extends the same workflow concept for published articles and lets you revise the published articles, keeping it online while you work on it’s revision.
Do let us know if you have more questions. As suggested by James, the best way to start the conversation is to submit a query via – https://www.oasisworkflow.com/submit-a-query
Hope this helps.
