Column Shortcodes
Version: 1.0.1
Description
Adds shortcodes to easily create columns in your posts or pages.
Sometimes you just need to divide your page into different columns. With this plugin you just select a column shortcode and it will add the column to the page. You can also change the padding of each individual column from the UI.
There are 10 different column widths available from which you can make all combinations:
- full width (1/1)
- half (1/2)
- one third (1/3)
- two third (2/3)
- one fourth (1/4)
- three fourth (3/4)
- one fifth (1/5)
- two fifth (2/5)
- three fifth (3/5)
- four fifth (4/5)
- one sixth (1/6)
- five sixth (5/6)
A preset stylesheet is included, which you can also overwrite to you liking in your theme’s stylesheet.

Installation

Standard
The easiest way is to use the added icon on the top of your editor ( right next to the media icon ). This will open a popup window from which you can select a column icon by clicking on one of the shortcodes.
Manual
You could also type in the shortcode yourself inside the editor. The following shortcodes are available:
[full_width][/full_width]
[one_half][/one_half]
[one_half_last][/one_half_last]
[one_third][/one_third]
[one_third_last][/one_third_last]
[two_third][/two_third]
[two_third_last][/two_third_last]
[one_fourth][/one_fourth]
[one_fourth_last][/one_fourth_last]
[three_fourth][/three_fourth]
[three_fourth_last][/three_fourth_last]
[one_fifth][/one_fifth]
[one_fifth_last][/one_fifth_last]
[two_fifth][/two_fifth]
[two_fifth_last][/two_fifth_last]
[three_fifth][/three_fifth]
[three_fifth_last][/three_fifth_last]
[four_fifth][/four_fifth]
[four_fifth_last][/four_fifth_last]
[one_sixth][/one_sixth]
[one_sixth_last][/one_sixth_last]
[five_sixth][/five_sixth]
[five_sixth_last][/five_sixth_last]
Another option
Another way to add shortcodes is to switch to HTML-view. On the top of editor you will now see all the shortcodes listed.
By default these buttons are hidden. If you’d like to use them you can add this to your theme’s functions.php:
add_filter('add_shortcode_html_buttons', '__return_true' );
When you have selected a shorcode it will be placed in you editor. You will see something like this:
[one_half][/one_half]
Make sure to place your content (text/images etc. ) between the two shortcodes, like so:
[one_half]My content goes here...[/one_half]
You can prefix the shortcode by placing the following in your functions.php. Problem solved =)
add_filter( 'cpsh_prefix', 'set_shortcode_prefix' );
function set_shortcode_prefix() {
return 'myprefix_'; // edit this part if needed
}
In patch 0.6 we added padding settings (optional) to the plugin. If you would like to hide this settings menu you can place the following in your functions.php
add_filter( 'cpsh_hide_padding_settings', '__return_true' );
If you would like to hide certain column from the menu; place the following in your functions.php
function hide_column_shortcodes( $shortcodes ) {
/* uncomment ( remove the '//' ) any of the following to remove it's shortcode from menu */
// unset( $shortcodes['full_width'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['one_half'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['one_third'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['one_fourth'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['two_third'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['three_fourth'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['one_fifth'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['two_fifth'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['three_fifth'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['four_fifth'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['one_sixth'] );
// unset( $shortcodes['five_sixth'] );
return $shortcodes;
}
add_filter( 'cpsh_column_shortcodes', 'hide_column_shortcodes' );
You can easily overwrite the existing stylesheet. For example you would like to add a margin between your columns, you just place the following in your theme’s style.css:
.one_half {
width: 49% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.one_half.last_column {
width: 49% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
.one_third {
width: 32% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.one_third.last_column {
width: 32% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
.two_third {
width: 66% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.two_third.last_column {
width: 66% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
.one_fourth {
width: 23.5% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.one_fourth.last_column {
width: 23.5% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
.three_fourth {
width: 74.5% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.three_fourth.last_column {
width: 74.5% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
.one_fifth {
width: 18.4% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.one_fifth.last_column {
width: 18.4% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
.two_fifth {
width: 39% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.two_fifth.last_column {
width: 39% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
.three_fifth {
width: 59% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.three_fifth.last_column {
width: 59% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
.four_fifth {
width: 79.6% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.four_fifth.last_column {
width: 79.6% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
.one_sixth {
width: 15% !important;
margin-right: 2% !important;
}
.one_sixth.last_column {
width: 15% !important;
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
If you would like to prevent the loading of the column styling on the frontend; place the following in your functions.php
add_filter( 'cpsh_load_styles', '__return_false' );
