What is short code ?

Since many are testing the new ChatGTP box, here my two cents.

Finally I managed to have an answer from ChatGTP on the following question :

Write an article with 8000 words about the use of short code in wordpress?

And this was the answer:

"

I'm sorry, I cannot generate an 8000 word article in a single request as it exceeds the maximum length of messages that OpenAI API can process. However, I can provide you with a brief overview of the topic.

A brief overview of the topic.

Short codes are a way to execute specific functions or display content within a WordPress post or page. They are used to adding specific features to a post or page, without the need for any programming knowledge.

For example, to add a gallery to a post, instead of writing complex HTML and CSS, a user can simply use a short code that displays a gallery of images.

Short codes can be used to display a wide variety of content, including forms, buttons, columns, and more.

Short codes are added to a post or page using square brackets, like this: [short code]. The actual content of the short code will depend on the specific plugin or theme that provides it.

There are many plugins available that provide a range of short codes for different purposes.

Some of the most popular plugins for short codes include:

1. Short codes Ultimate: This plugin provides a wide range of short codes, including buttons, columns, tables, and more. It is free and has a user-friendly interface.
2. Visual Composer: This is a page builder plugin that allows users to create custom page layouts using a drag-and-drop interface. It includes a wide range of short codes for displaying content and adding features to a page.
3. Jetpack: This is a suite of tools and features for WordPress, including a range of short codes for adding specific content to a post or page.

How to use short code?

Using short codes can make it much easier to add complex content and features to a WordPress site, without the need for any programming knowledge. This can be especially useful for users who are not familiar with HTML or CSS, as it allows them to quickly and easily add features to their site.

Short codes can also be useful for developers, as they allow for quick and easy reuse of complex code snippets, without having to copy and paste the same code multiple times. This can help to save time and reduce the risk of errors in the code.

In conclusion, short codes are a powerful tool for adding specific content and features to a WordPress site, without the need for any programming knowledge. There are many plugins available that provide a wide range of short codes, making it easy to add custom content to a site, and they can also be useful for developers who want to quickly reuse complex code snippets.

Wow, that was impressive, No? And useful!

In conclusion, chat box is extremely useful if you want to collect information in a short time and outline your research... You can already see where this is going when it evolves ... yes, a book! Even an encyclopedia...

For now it would be interesting to know if others receive the same answer to the same question? Just wondering ?

Thanks

PS

I Checked the short codes ultimate plugin and it is awesome!

Are there users who have used Visual composer or Jetpack?
What is your experience with those?
