Hi Henning,

Thank you for your reply. In my particular case, I have headling APR rates for loans listed in ads (and also in tables and other places on my site). The values I want to store are the minimum and maximum variable APR and the minimum and maximum fixed APR (4 values) for about 10 different products (~40 values). These values update frequently and I would like a single place where I can update all of them at once, so if one product needs to updates its rates, I don’t have to manually update all of the ads and tables that contain those rates. I’m trying to do this through an ad shortcode since I want it to be editable by non-admins of the site but I realize this might be a strange way to do this. In reality, I want to store a variable and use that variable all over the site.

One ad would look like this (not visible to public):
APR1: 2.00
APR2: 5.99
APR3: 2.50

And then the actual public ad would look something like this:
“The starting variable rate is [shortcode APR1]%”
so in the public view, it would show
“The starting variable rate is 2.00%”

But I haven’t figured out how to only show part of the referenced ad with the shortcode. It would bring in all of the rates.
