Change shortcode?

    I know this plugin is discontinued and fully understand if you can’t help here. But a small question … Is it possible to change the shortcode input from:

    [dropcap]...[/dropcap]

    to

    <p>[dropcap]...[/dropcap]</p>

    Been trying to change the plugin files but haven’t been able to change the input.

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    You can add the wrapping html code directly in the editor without changing the shortcode input. You can do so like this: <p>[dropcap]This[/dropcap] is a text.</p>

    Thanks. I was looking for a way to make work like that automatically – when pressing the D-button in the Visual Editor, though.

    Best!

    You need to change the code in the file includes/js/shortcode-button.js:15 and includes/js/shortcode-button.js:18.

    Yeah. Tried to change the code from

    if( selected !== ' ' || selected !== null ) {
                    // if text is selected when button is clicked, wrap shortcode around it
                    content =  '[dropcap]' + selected + '[/dropcap]';
                } else {
                	// add shortcode without the selected text
                	content = '[dropcap][/dropcap]';
                }

    to

    if( selected !== ' ' || selected !== null ) {
                    // if text is selected when button is clicked, wrap shortcode around it
                    content =  '<p>[dropcap]' + selected + '[/dropcap]</p>';
                } else {
                	// add shortcode without the selected text
                	content = '<p>[dropcap][/dropcap]</p>';
                }

    But nothing’s changed. It still inserts [dropcap]…[dropcap] when pressing the shortcode button.

    I have almost no coding experience, sorry.

    Try to clear your site and browser cache. It seems the modified JS script hasn’t been loaded. Your modified file looks good.
