KolFolio Shortcodes Usage + Explanation

KolFolio comes with some pretty cool shortcodes that make editing your content easier. That, and will make your posts look fantastic.

A shortcode looks something like this, and can be used in the WordPress post editor:

[shortcode]
Content that goes inside it!
[/shortcode]

They basically act as HTML (with an opening and closing tag), but in a lot simpler form. Shortcodes generally remove the need for you to memorize any HTML.

Here are all the shortcodes in KolFolio, and how to use them:

Colored Buttons

Description: Creates a different colored button in your content.

[/button]

Attributes:

  • color=”" changes the color of the button. The colors currently available are green, red, orange, blue, gray, dark
  • link=”" sets the link the button should direct to when clicked.

Portfolio Slider

Usage:

[slider]
    [item image="http://imageurl.com/"]
    [item image="http://imageurl.com/"]
[/slider]

The slider images must always be wrapped in the [slider] shortcode. You can add as many images as you want to the slider by adding this shortcode for each instance:

[item image="http://imageurl.com/"]
  • image=”" adds the image to slide. Recommended width is 360×380, and slider will crop in any images larger than that automatically.
