Shortcodes for Craft CMS

Shortcodes is a Craft CMS plugin that lets content carry small, reusable instructions that Twig turns into project-owned output. Give authors concise tokens for components or dynamic values without allowing arbitrary template code in the field.

Register a shortcode name and handler, then let authors place that token within supported text. Attributes carry the few values the component needs while the rendering logic remains in project code.

Features

• Represent a reusable component with a concise shortcode token.
• Pass controlled options without exposing Twig expressions to authors.
• Define what each shortcode means in module or template code.
• Update presentation centrally while stored content stays concise.
• Process shortcodes inside the content formats selected by the project.
• Use a shortcode within surrounding text or as a block-level component.
