To add shortcodes into content, when edit a post or a page, click on the Add Shortcode button above the editor.
Then choose which shortcode you’d like to add in the popup panel, then choose which style of this shortcode you want to use.
For example, if you’d like to insert a shortcode of drop cap, you can select a paragraph, and then click on the “Add Shortcode” button to open the shortcodes panel, then click on “Drop Caps”, there you will see the options you can choose for a drop cap. Click on “Insert Shortcode” button to wrap the selected content with this shortcode.
The shortcode for drop caps will look similar to this:
Please note: most of the shortcodes have an opening tag and a close tag and text content needs to be put between them. Please see below:
[lo_drop_caps] Content goes here. [/lo_drop_caps]
Or,
[lo_button size=”large” url=”#”] Contact Us [/lo_button]
The shortcodes for Author List and Divider Line don’t have a close tag because you don’t need to add any text content for these 2 shortcodes.
