Adding shortcode input button to CMS editors

Hello,
thank you for your suggestion.
Lets vote for it!

This snippet will give you all available shortcodes in your theme and plugins (dont expect Bootstrap parts, they are not all implemented in Themler).

@Stagger Lee Thank you, Interesting but not enjoyable xD

VOTE guys, all other themes builders have this feature!

Yep let's get voting!!! Makes our end themes much more useful to the end user as they won't need us to make changes on Themler etc, can easily change shortcodes and re-use parts of the design!

You're God damn right!!

Can you name few real life cases for what you (all of you) use it ?

I make blogs for bloggers/writers who are familiar with only -like word office editor- and nothing more! So adding this control is a good thing for them, and to not get contacted with every post they'll publish!

I personally never gave it to Users. Cant stand idea they are medling with shortcodes in text mode. Just one character deleted and they make a mess.
I am waiting to Shortcake to make pace and to be a bit more popular.

I give them custom fields. They cannot insert anything between paragraphs, but they cannot ruin anything. Zero chance.

It's ok for posts , there is nothing to ruin.
And yeah I think shortcake will be a piece of cake literally.

You can use this with new Themler plugin for shortcodes. This snippet wont list all possible shortcodes, you can write own list. Just change shortcode names and select values.

add_action('media_buttons','add_sc_select',11);
function add_sc_select(){
echo '&nbsp;<select id="sc_select">
<option>Shortcode</option>
<option value="[html][/html]">[html] Themler Section 1</option>
<option value="[css][/css]">[css] Themler Section 2</option>
<option value="[javascript][/javascript]">[javascript] Themler Section 3</option>
</select>';
}
add_action('admin_head', 'button_js');
function button_js() {
echo '<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery("#sc_select").change(function() {
send_to_editor(jQuery("#sc_select :selected").val());
return false;
});
});
</script>';
}

I didn't see the new plugin yet ,This moments themler have some updating issues i think , i'll try in the end of the day.

I want to add the current year to the footer for the copyright text. In Artisteer it is [year], in Tuxedo (which I use until now for Wooc sites) it is [tux-year].
This is yet another feature we have lost going from Artisteer to Themler, despite Themler on the whole giving us a lot more. This sort of omission is very frustrating for an existing user.
Gets my vote.

Hi len,

The [year] shortcode works just fine on my side.
Where exactly you added this shortcode? It will not not work in the text control. Please try Shortcode control (Insert tab >> More) or add it from the WP admin panel.

Thank you,
Olivia

Olivia, the [year] shortcode is now working, not sue what changed.
What is "shortcake" as mentioned above?
