How Do I Add a Parameter to a Shortcode in WordPress?

Adding a parameter to a shortcode is a simple process. To add a parameter to a shortcode, follow these steps:

1. Open the shortcode you want to modify in your editor.

2. Within the shortcode, locate the opening curly brace ({), and then within that brace, locate the equal sign (=).

3. Within the equal sign, locate the parameter you want to add.

4. Within the parameter, type the name of the variable you want to use.

5. After the variable name, type a comma.

6. Within the comma, type the value you want to assign to that variable.

7. Finally, type a closing curly brace (}).

8. Save your shortcode.

Now that you have added a parameter to your shortcode, you can use that parameter in your shortcode’s code. To do so, simply place the parameter within the code within the curly braces ({}), like so:

[my_shortcode name=”my_shortcode_name” param=”my_param_name”]

If you want to disable a parameter from being used in a shortcode, you can do so by including the no_param parameter within the [my_shortcode name=”my_shortcode_name” param=”my_param_name”] code. For example, if you wanted to disable the my_param_name parameter from being used in a shortcode, you would include the no_param parameter within the [my_shortcode name=”my_shortcode_name” param=””] code.

Finally, if you want to add more than one parameter to a shortcode, you can do so by separating the parameter names with a comma. For example, [my_shortcode name=”my_shortcode_name” param1=”my_param_1″ param2=”my_param_2″] would allow you to use the my_param_1 and my_param_2 parameters within the same shortcode.
