Hi, no it is not always necessary. You need explicit closing tag only when you are using any enclosed content. Otherwise it is not needed and Shortcoder does not automatically add it.
Thank you for the fast reply.
I wanted to individualize a shortcode with “Shortcoder”. I made this:
[su_box title="%%title%%" style="flat" box_color="#000000" title_color="#ffffff" radius="0" class="blackbox"]%%text%%[/su_box]
But when I add a HTML-link to %%text%% the “Shortcoder”-Shortcode will not be displayed. So I have used $$enclosed_content$$:
[su_box title="%%title%%" style="flat" box_color="#000000" title_color="#ffffff" radius="0" class="blackbox"]$$enclosed_content$$[/su_box]
With this code I need a [/sc]. Is there an alternative to add the [/sc] manually?
Or is it possible that user which are using the plugin are reminded to add [/sc]
Sure.. this can be done only when the shortcode is inserted using the “insert shortcode” button in post editor.
But giving suggestion inside the editor similar to “intellisense” feature would be a lot of work. I’ll consider the possibilities to implement the same based on demand.
