 * I’m trying to figure out how to use shortcodes, specifically how to add a class
   to the [avatar] shortcode, but all the documentation is missing from your site.
 * What gives?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fshortcode-documentation-throws-404-errors%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * We are currently working on the doc.
 * The avatar shortcode doesn’t support adding a class. You can try wrapping the
   shortcode with a div. That should work.
