## Frequently Asked Questions ##

### What are shortcodes? ###

Shortcode, a "shortcut to code", makes it easy to add funtionality to a page or post. When a page with a shortcode is saved, WordPress execute the linked code and embedds the output in the page.

### Writing your own shortcode plugin ###

* [Smashing Magazine](http://www.smashingmagazine.com/) has a nice (as allways) article about [Mastering WordPress shortcodes](http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/02/02/mastering-wordpress-shortcodes/). The article has several examples you can use as a starting point for writing your own.
* At codplex, you'll find the [Shortcode API documented](http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API)
* Also, feel free to use this plugin as a template for you own shortcode plugin

## Changelog ##
### 2.2.0 ###
* Add scripts to shortcode only when the shortcode is used.
* Update plugin for [WordPress Coding Standards](https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/best-practices/coding-standards/).
* Tested & found compatible with WP 4.5.

### 2.1.4 ###
* Tested in WordPress 4.3

### 2.1.3 ###

* The plugin no longer supports PHP 4.x

### 2.1.2 ###
* Bugfix, You need this version if you are using PHP prior to version 5.3

### 2.1.1 ###
* Replaced LastRSS with WordPress built in methods and set/get transient for caching. See function ps_delicious_tagroll_get_tags() in ps_delicious_tagroll.php
* Added a new optional attribute:
     * tags (default empty), used to filter which tags you'd like to display eg. tags="javascript,jquery,nodejs"

### 2.0 ###
* Delicious removed their javascript feed so I had to do a [total rewrite](http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/455721/delicious-tagroll-shortcode/trunk/ps_delicious_tagroll.php)
     * Creates the tag cloud server-side (good for SEO) and lets you change the look and feel using the included style sheet.
     * Uses the [Delicious RSS feed API](http://delicious.com/help/feeds)
     * Caches the feed for one hour. Delicious might block you if you access their feed API too often.
* Some attributes are removed from the shortcode (you can change these using the ps_delicious_tagroll.css style sheet in the plugin directory):
     * mincolor
     * maxcolor
     * flow
* Also removed the attributes
     * showname
     * showadd
     * icon
