Many WordPress themes here seem to use some sort of visual interface for adding shortcodes and editing their attributes. Is there any tutorial out there on implementing one or some plugin that can be integrated to the theme’s functions.php? Thanks.
Guess I’ll try to do something with this or some other plugin. The Shortcode Ninja plugin has a GPLv2 license so it should be completely OK to modify and distribute the plugin freely, right? Just wondering because it’s explicitly stated that the plugin is to be used with themes based on WooFramework and as such the plugin won’t work with other themes, so it’d require some modification.

Here’s a really good tutorial for creating an ‘insert shortcode’ button in the wordpress editor that allows users an easy way to specify the required attributes. Found this in wp tuts’ best wordpress tutorials of 2011 article. http://www.problogdesign.com/wordpress/user-friendly-short-codes-with-tinymce/
francomusso saidThanks for posting that, that’s the best tutorial I’ve found on the subject. The only thing it lacks for me is explaining how to implement a dropdown list for different shortcodes instead of creating individual button for every shortcode.
