Hi guys,
does anyone have an idea how i can create a shortcode like [STRG] to display an image from a keyboard STRG?
I want to use it in my tech-blog e.g. here: [ redundant link removed ]
There u can see [STRG] + [ALT] + [ENT]
and i want little images for the three […], instead of a text.
Thanks.

*something like*
```
function altkey( $atts, $content ) {
   return '<div class="key alt"><img src="http://yourstringimagehere" alt="alt key image"></div>';
}
add_shortcode( 'alt', 'altkey');
```

That example code won’t actually make the image, which I think is what is being asked. But it could return a data-uri (inline image) if you want.

Hey guys, thanks for the response. I found a plugin “shortcodes” and it works fine.

Looks perfect 🙂
