SureCart List Of All Shortcodes
This page lists all the awesome SureCart shortcodes for you, along with some simple instructions on how to use them. If you’re looking for more examples and in-depth info, be sure to check out the articles that focus on the specific shortcodes you’re interested in adding.
What is a ShortCode?
A shortcode is a simple and abbreviated code enclosed in square brackets, like [shortcode]. It lets you easily add dynamic content or functionalities to your posts, pages, or widgets without writing complex code.
For instance, you can use a shortcode to insert a SureCart Shop Page, you can add [sc_product_list] wherever you want it to appear.
How to Use Shortcodes?
When you want to insert dynamic content or functionality, you just need to place the appropriate shortcode within your post, page, or widget content.
To use a shortcode on your website, simply follow the steps below:
- Copy the shortcode you have.
- Add the parameters you want to have. If you do not want to add any parameters, you can skip this part.
- Paste the shortcode where required.
- Save your post/page and check on the front end.
That’s all! Now, you will see the content on your website that is displayed by your shortcodes.
What are Shortcode Parameters and How to Use Them?
Shortcode parameters are like special instructions that let you change how a shortcode works and looks. They help you customize how the shortcode appears on your website.
For example, imagine you want to show a shopping cart icon on a specific page of your website using SureCart. By default, you’d use a shortcode like [sc_cart_menu_icon].
But if you want to change the icon to something else like a shopping cart, it’s easy. You can do that by adding an extra parameters to the default shortcode.
For instance, you can add “cart_icon=shopping-cart” to make the icon look like a shopping cart. This way, you can easily personalize the shortcodes to match your needs.
And if you’re wondering how to add the parameters to shortocodes, simply add them inside the shortcode as shown below.
Default shortcode: [sc_cart_menu_icon]
Modified shortcode with parameters: [sc_cart_menu_icon cart_icon=”shopping-cart”]
By using parameters, you can customize how the icon appears, even when the cart is empty. You can add any parameter you want to make the shortcode suit your preferences!
Important Note
The ID parameter in SureCart shortcodes won’t work in SureCart version 3 and above. It will still work in version 2.40.1 and below.
Starting in version 3, SureCart uses WordPress Interactivity API, which needs a wrapper element, so the ID parameter is no longer compatible.
Please update your shortcodes to work with the new version.
