Save to foursquare Shortcode

Description

If you reference venues on foursquare you may want to include the Publisher “Save to foursquare” button inline within your WordPress posts.

This plugin is a simple shortcode that accepts two parameters:

  • uid = foursquare user ID (numeric) to appear as ‘referred’ by’ on foursquare once saved to a user’s list
  • vid = the venue’s ID (hash at the end of a venue URL)

This was built for my own purposes but am happy to accept pull requests on GitHub for any improvements to make this more useful to the community: https://github.com/devinreams/wp-save-to-foursquare-shortcode

  1. Upload save-to-foursquare-shortcode to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory or install from the WordPress dashboard
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Place [sfoursquare uid=900 vid=49c69305f964a52060571fe3] in your post where you’d like the button to appear

The two parameters are:

  • uid = foursquare user ID (numeric) to appear as ‘referred’ by’ on foursquare once saved to a user’s list
  • vid = the venue’s ID (hash at the end of a venue URL)
