Sidcraft shortcodes

A shortcode is a short tag you paste into WordPress content. Sidcraft Page Builder 1.2.4 registers three: a saved template, a menu anchor, and a site menu. The Shortcode unit inside the editor is different: it runs any shortcode you type into that unit.

Updated . Covers Sidcraft Page Builder 1.2.4 and Sidcraft Builder Pro 1.2.3.

Saved template

Prints a published saved Sidcraft template, including its styles and scripts. If a template embeds itself, that loop is stopped and nothing extra is printed. You can use the template’s number or its title. The number wins when both are present.

AttributeDefaultWhat you put here
id0The saved template’s number. 0, or a missing template, prints nothing.
titleEmptyUsed only when id is empty. Sidcraft looks up a template with this title.

Example with the template number:

[sidcraft_page_builder_template id="42"]

Example with the template title:

[sidcraft_page_builder_template title="Homepage hero"]

Menu anchor

Wraps the text inside the shortcode in a section that the page can scroll to. A Menu Anchor unit on the canvas can point at the same kind of id. The plugin can also add matching links into a WordPress menu.

AttributeDefaultWhat you put here
idEmptyThe anchor name, such as contact-us. Links use #contact-us.
classEmptyExtra class name on the section.

The words between the opening and closing tags are the section content. Shortcodes inside that content are processed.

[sidcraft_page_builder_anchor id="contact-us" class="visit"]Write or call us.[/sidcraft_page_builder_anchor]

Site menu

Prints a WordPress menu. On a narrow screen it becomes a hamburger button. The same choices exist on the Site Menu unit.

AttributeDefaultWhat you put here
menuEmptyA classic menu from Appearance → Menus, or a theme location slug such as primary.
layouthorizontalhorizontal or vertical.
breakpoint782Width in pixels. Below this width the menu collapses. The unit allows 320 to 1400.
display_nameEmptyText on the menu button and the accessible name of the menu. Empty uses the menu’s own name. On the Site Menu unit this is the Display name field.
 
[sidcraft_page_builder_nav menu="primary" layout="horizontal" breakpoint="782" display_name="Primary"]

Sidebar widget

Under Appearance → Widgets, the Sidcraft Template widget shows a saved template in a widget area. It is not a shortcode. Its fields are Title (optional) and Saved Template. If no template is chosen, the widget prints nothing.
