Title: Shortcodes Last modified: November 2, 2016 --- # Shortcodes * Resolved [wildbuttrueblue](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wildbuttrueblue/) * (@wildbuttrueblue) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-242/) * Sprout Invoices version Version 11.1 * Attempting to install the free version of the plugin for presentation for a client before they decide to buy. Installation into the proposed site has proven to be difficult at best with document of valid shortcodes elusive or incorrect? * Attempted to press the help button from the WP Admin panel and ended up on a documentation page for Scout help. * Short, other than my rant – is a list of current shortcodes available? * ~Respect * WildBlue Viewing 5 replies - 1 through 5 (of 5 total) * Plugin Contributor [Dan Cameron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dancameron/) * (@dancameron) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-242/#post-8387629) * Hello, * The free version doesn’t require/have shortcodes. Instead there is an invoice and estimate template already designed and included. * Here is some documentation on customizations: [http://docs.sproutapps.co/article/38-customizing-templates](http://docs.sproutapps.co/article/38-customizing-templates) * Here’s a free design: [https://sproutapps.co/marketplace/slate-free-invoice-estimate-template-design/](https://sproutapps.co/marketplace/slate-free-invoice-estimate-template-design/) * Hopefully when directed to a documentation page you were sent here: [http://docs.sproutapps.co/collection/1-sprout-invoices](http://docs.sproutapps.co/collection/1-sprout-invoices) * If I can help with anything else please let me know. * Thread Starter [wildbuttrueblue](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wildbuttrueblue/) * (@wildbuttrueblue) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-242/#post-8387751) * Thank you for your reply. * Think maybe (?) the issue I am encountering with the free version is that the client dashboard page was not created automatically? When I go to create a page– there is no Sprout template available in the drop down list of templates. Should there be? * Again, thank you for your time and assistance. * ~Respect * WildBlue * Plugin Contributor [Dan Cameron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dancameron/) * (@dancameron) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-242/#post-8388145) * Hello, * The client dashboard is a feature for the pro version. Here is the documentation– [http://docs.sproutapps.co/article/36-client-dashboards](http://docs.sproutapps.co/article/36-client-dashboards) * If/when you purchase the pro version you would simply add a shortcode, you don’t need to select a particular page template. * Regards, * Thread Starter [wildbuttrueblue](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wildbuttrueblue/) * (@wildbuttrueblue) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-242/#post-8388325) * Understand that. In the free version how is the customer permitted access to the functions of the dashboard? Are they not? Perhaps I misunderstood your original reply regarding templates. * If there are templates available, how are they assigned if not available in the drop down list of pages during page creation? * At this point, before convincing someone to buy, trying to understand, if it possible, for them to see and gain and idea of what they are getting. * ~Respect * WildBlue * Plugin Contributor [Dan Cameron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dancameron/) * (@dancameron) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-242/#post-8388480) * Hello, * The free version doesn’t have a dashboard, so there’s no access to be given. * The links for customizations were given because I had thought you wanted to customize the invoice/estimate templates. * By default there is a single estimate/invoice template, and overriding that template can be done though your theme (this is how the Slate theme works). * If you wanted to create multiple templates, maybe you want to provide a different invoice/estimate template per client, than you can use “Multiple Custom Templates”, which is documented here – [http://docs.sproutapps.co/article/38-customizing-templates](http://docs.sproutapps.co/article/38-customizing-templates) * Maybe to better help you, you can let me know what you’re trying to do, than I can explain what’s needed. * Thanks.
