Conditional Shortcode

    Is there any way to modify the output of the shortcode based upon either the underlying category of a blog post or the URL of the page.

    For example, if I have two blog categories: Apples and Oranges, and I’ve setup my permalinks so the URL is domain.com/apples/post and domain.com/oranges/post . . .

    I’d like to use the same shortcode, but if it’s an apples post display one piece of html (image/link) and if it’s oranges display another.

    In my specific situation, having two separate shortcodes won’t work due to how these posts are being created.

    Thanks.

    The logic would need to be in the PHP code (or *perhaps* in JavaScript…?). The ShortCodes UI plugin itself does not have that kind of conditional logic built in. You may also want to consider some form of conditional / dynamic widgets plugin if you want to avoid programming.
