• Hi !
    For my client I am trying to optimize to the maximum the back-office.
    To do it I would like to be able to fill the values of the network url with a shortcode (with a value coming from a custom-field).
    Is it possible ?
    For now, when I am trying to do so it shows an icon but do not use the shortcode value.

    Thanks for your time,
    Cypoun

    PS: I am all up to date (wordpress and WPZoom Social Icon) and I work in local.

    @cypoun Unfortunately, our plugin doesn’t include a shortcode, so you can’t display the icons using a shortcode and be able to set different parameters.

    There is a plugin called Widget Shortcode which does something similar, but you will still have to add our widget in a sidebar and configure it there:

    Thanks for the answer,

    I am not sure you understood my question.
    I would like to set a shortcode instead of an url in your plugin. So in each page where there is the plugin my customer can enter an url in the Custom Field;
    I already worked on my site so I can use a specified shortcode to get the value from an specified Custom Field.

    For instance in my page, below the editor, there is a Custom Field nammed “Twitter url”. The value of this field can be shown by writing [twitter] in my editor. So I would like to set up your plugin with the twitter url: [twitter].

    Is that possible ?

    Sorry for asking again but I’m pretty sure it is possible (from a way or an other) but I wasn’t sure if my question was clear.

    Thanks again for your time and your super plugin !

    @cypoun Now I understand what you mean. However, that’s not possible in the current version of the plugin.

    Can you give us please an example of how this could help with what you’re trying to do? How is the value of a shortcode different than entering manually an URL?
