This WordPress plugin is VERY simple; NO configuration options necessary.<\/p>\n\n
This plugin adds a new Post Type. This plugin makes it SUPER easy to reuse fragments of content (i.e. Snippets). Snippets can be included in other Posts\/Pages\/Widgets via Shortcodes. This is a very lightweight plugin for WordPress!<\/p>\n\n
After installing this plugin, create a new Snippet (find menu item on the left in your WordPress Dashboard). Give your Snippet a Slug (i.e. under the title of your Snippet). Once you have a Snippet and a Slug, you can include your Snippet anywhere you like \u2014 in other Posts\/Pages\/Widgets (and even inside PHP\/WordPress template files).<\/p>\n\n
Using a Snippet that you've created in the WordPress Editor. Follow this simple Shortcode syntax.<\/p>\n\n
[snippet slug=\"my-cool-snippet\" \/]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\nUsing a Snippet that you've created inside a PHP template file.<\/p>\n\n
<?php echo do_shortcode('[snippet slug=\"my-cool-snippet\" \/]'); ?>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\nLicense<\/h3>\n\n

WP Snippets is Very Easy to Install<\/h4>\n\n\n- Upload the
\/wp-snippets<\/code> folder to your \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory.<\/li>\n- Activate the plugin through the Plugins<\/strong> menu in WordPress\u00ae.<\/li>\n
Use Snippets in your Posts\/Pages\/Widgets via Shortcodes.<\/p>\n\n
[snippet slug=\"my-cool-snippet\" \/]\n<\/code><\/pre><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n- How do I use a Snippet that I create?<\/dt>\n
Using a Snippet that you've created in the WP Editor. Follow this simple Shortcode syntax.<\/p>\n\n
[snippet slug=\"my-cool-snippet\" \/]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\nUsing a Snippet that you've created inside a PHP template file.<\/p>\n\n
<?php echo do_shortcode('[snippet slug=\"my-cool-snippet\" \/]'); ?>\n<\/code><\/pre><\/dd>\n- Who can manage Snippets in the Dashboard?<\/dt>\n
By default, only WordPress\u00ae Administrators can manage (i.e. create\/edit\/delete\/manage) Snippets. Editors and Authors can create\/edit\/delete their own Snippets, but permissions are limited for Editors\/Authors. If you would like to give other WordPress Roles the Capabilities required, please use a plugin like Enhanced Capability Manager<\/a>.<\/p>\n\nAdd the following Capabilities to the additional Roles that should be allowed to manage Snippets.<\/p>\n\n
$caps = array\n (\n 'edit_snippets',\n 'edit_others_snippets',\n 'edit_published_snippets',\n 'edit_private_snippets',\n 'publish_snippets',\n 'delete_snippets',\n 'delete_private_snippets',\n 'delete_published_snippets',\n 'delete_others_snippets',\n 'read_private_snippets'\n );\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\nNOTE: There are also some WordPress filters integrated into the code for this plugin, which can make permissions easier to deal with in many cases. You can have a look at the source code and determine how to proceed on your own; if you choose this route.<\/p><\/dd>\n
- Is it possible to use other Shortcodes inside a Snippet?<\/dt>\n
Yes. Absolutely. You can even nest one Snippet inside another one via Shortcodes.<\/p><\/dd>\n
- I also installed the [Raw HTML plugin](http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/raw-html\/). Can I use Raw HTML inside a Snippet?<\/dt>\n
Yes. When creating a new Snippet, please wrap your Snippet content with [raw][\/raw]<\/code> tags; or with <!--raw--><!--\/raw--><\/code> tags. Consult the Raw HTML documentation<\/a> on this please. An important point to make is that Snippets are self-contained. Applying Raw HTML to a Post\/Page that includes a Snippet via [snippet slug=\"my-snippet\" \/]<\/code>, will NOT apply Raw HTML to the Snippet content itself. You must wrap the Snippet content with raw tags to achieve this. This actually provides a great deal of flexibility, because it allows you to have a Raw HTML Post or Page, but have Snippets that were designed in the WP Visual Editor (or vice versa \u2014 and even mixtures, if you include multiple Snippets).<\/p><\/dd>\n- I also installed the [ezPHP plugin](http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/ezphp\/). Can I use PHP tags inside a Snippet?<\/dt>\n
Yes. Absolutely. I recommend ezPHP<\/a>, but WP Snippets are also compatible with Exec-PHP<\/a>.<\/p><\/dd>\n- I also installed the [s2Member\u00ae plugin](http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/s2member\/). Can I protect content in Snippets conditionally?<\/dt>\n
Yes. Absolutely. I recommend this KB article: s2Member\u00ae Simple Conditionals<\/a>. s2Member's Simple Shortcode Conditionals can be used inside a Snippet itself, or by wrapping your Snippet Shortcode when you put it into a Post or Page. Either way is fine.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\nv150201<\/h4>\n\n
