FAQ

Where can I the documentation?

Documentation for the plugin is available directly from the Help panel in the
plugin administration screen (top right corner of WordPress).

Why does importing Snippets on a Multisite installation fail?

Uploading of zip files must be allowed, enable this in Sites Network Admin > Settings > Upload Settings > Upload file types.

How can I use the content in an enclosed shortcode?

If the shortcode is enclosed and contains content between the tags in a post. Example: [shortcode]Some text[/shortcode] the text within will be available in a variable called content. So in your snippet use {content} to display it. Don’t enter ‘content’ in the variable field, it’s automatically assigned.

Where can I get support?

Please visit the Support Forum for questions, answers, support and feature requests.

Can I disable the PHP Code Execution feature?

To disable the “PHP Code” execution feature in this plugin, add the following code your theme’s functions.php or to wp-config.php: define('POST_SNIPPETS_DISABLE_PHP', true);

This is useful if you are using this plugin for client sites, and don’t want
your clients to be able to use PHP code in a post snippet.

I use plugin for years and it helps me a lot to insert texts i need in different places of my page and update it only in one place.
31. aug. 2023
Been using this product for almost a year now. It is a huge help for adding codes seamlessly. It has a user-friendly interface which is really perfect for beginners. It also covers a wide range of code types which even experts in the field will find helpful. It has enhanced our workflow and saved us a huge amount of time. Most important of all is the prompt response from their customer support. First thing everyone should look for when subscribing to something.

When PostSnippets unexpectedly wouldn’t allow me to create, duplicate or edit I contacted support. After some troubleshooting, support offered to log in to the site and explore. They quickly determined the problem and wrote a custom function to restore PostSnippets. Very happy with support

  • Fixed an escaping problem with the quicktag javascript, that could cause
    problems on certain strings.

Version 1.4.2 – 11 Apr 2009

  • Fixed some additional syntax for servers where the short_open_tag
    configuration setting is disabled.

Version 1.4.1 – 10 Apr 2009

  • Removed all short syntax commands and replaced them with the full versions so
    the plugin also works on servers with the short_open_tag configuration
    setting disabled.

Version 1.4 – 10 Apr 2009

  • Added a checkbox for Shortcodes (SC) in the admin panel. When checking this
    one a dynamic shortcode will be generated and inserted instead of the
    snippet, which allows snippets to be updated later on for all posts it’s been
    inserted into when using this option.
  • Added a checkbox for Quicktags (QT) in the admin panel, so Quicktags are
    optional. Speeds up loading of the post editor if you don’t need the quicktag
    support, and only use the visual editor. Defaults to off.

Version 1.3.5 – 9 Apr 2009

  • Fixed so the TinyMCE window adds a scrollbar if there is more variables for a
    snippet than fits in the window.
  • Fixed a bug that snippets didn’t get inserted when using the visual editor in
    fullscreen mode.

Version 1.3 – 2 Apr 2009

  • Fixed a problem with the regular expressions that prohibited variables
    consisting of just a single number to work.
  • Updated the Help info in the admin page to take less space.
  • Included a check so the plugin only runs in WP 2.7 or newer.

Version 1.2 – 1 Apr 2009

  • Added support for Quicktags so the snippets can be made available in the HTML
    editor as well.

Version 1.1 – 24 Mar 2009

  • Included Swedish translation.
  • Added TextDomain functionality for I18n.

Version 1.0 – 23 Mar 2009

  • Initial Release
