# Clickable shortcode images

 * Would be cool to see image as an option to replace the shortcode and then have
   it pop back up like some of the built in wordpress shortcodes work…
 * Here’s an example of what I’m referring to : [http://generatewp.com/take-shortcodes-ultimate-level/](http://generatewp.com/take-shortcodes-ultimate-level/)
 * Actually here’s an example of a plugin that implements the functionality with
   a filter but doesn’t seem to work well: [visual shortcodes](http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/visual-shortcodes/trunk/visualshortcodes/editor_plugin.js)
 * The filter lets you map shortcodes to images with filter like this :
 *     ```
       add_filter('jpb_visual_shortcodes','add_visual_shortcode_image');
       function add_visual_shortcode_image($shortcodes){
       	$shortcodes[] = array(
       		'shortcode' => 'gravityform',
       		'image' => get_stylesheet_directory_uri().'/images/form.png',
       		'command' => NULL,
       	);
       	return $shortcodes;
       }
       ```

 * Bump, agree. This would be a great feature. However, I’ve tried this myself several
   times and it’s not an easy task. Whilst we’ve had it working for a few shortcodes
   I don’t envy the task but I’m sure if you could get it working on this plugin
   it’d bump it up to super-stardom!
