Can I use JavaScript or CSS files instead of HTML

Yes, you can select JS and CSS files to be added to a bit, Snippy will automatically load the files when the shortcode is used on a page.

Please note that your server might prevent uploading files with a .js or .css extension. If that’s the case you have to alter the server security settings to allow uploading of these files.

How do I define placeholders

You can define placeholders in bits by wrapping text in brackets like this: {{placeholder}}.

Suppose you want to create a placeholder for a YouTube video. You’d replace the YouTube video id with {{id}}.

<iframe src="https://youtube/embed/{{id}}"/>

Now the attribute id is available in any shortcode that uses the YouTube HTML bit.

[youtube id=JZYYJY4yoK4]

How do I set a placeholder default value

Placeholder default values can be set by following the placeholder name with a semicolon and then the default value.

{{name:John Doe}}

Which default placeholders can I use

The following list of placeholders have a special function:

• {{content}} is always replaced with the content wrapped by your shortcode.
• {{date_today}} is replaced with an ISO8601 representation of today’s date.
• {{date_tomorrow}} is replaced with an ISO8601 representation of today’s date.
• {{unique_id}} is replaced with a uniquely generated id.
• {{shortcode_id}} is replaced with the id of the current shortcode.
• {{bit_id}} is replaced with the id of the current bit.
• {{page_id}} is replaced with the current page id.
• {{page_relative_url}} relative url to the current page.
• {{page_absolute_url}} absolute url to the current page (includes the domain).
• {{theme}} current theme name.
• {{theme_root_uri}} theme directory URI.
• {{template_directory_uri}} current theme directory URI.
• {{admin_url}} current admin url.
• {{nonce_field:action,name}} generate a nonce field.
