Some of you asked me how I made my Amazon Buy Buttons on my site so I thought I would make a quick video showing you how and what plugin I used.

The Word Press Plugin is Forget About Shortcode Buttons and you can make nice amazon buttons or any other button you like with it.

They look something like this:

Forget About Shortcode Buttons are a visual way to add CSS buttons in the rich text editor and to your themes. Instead of adding shortcodes in the post editor, you insert real, styled buttons – making the process of adding buttons to your posts and pages much more natural whilst improving the appearance and usability of the post editor.

Forget About Shortcode Buttons tries to be as clean as possible with the html, only using data attributes for necessary features – the buttons you use in the post editor use the exact same classes as on the front end of your site with no extra or hidden markup to make them behave this way.

If you have any questions or comments please let me know.

Hope that helps. Talk to you soon,

Greg

H Greg, thanks for the training. I'm still new to this so I was wondering, once you have created your buttons can you then deactivate the plugin as I know we shouldn't have too many plugins on our site?

You can delete the plugin but it will change the way the button looks. It doesn't look as good. Hope that helps.
