Create Custom Shortcode in WordPress Post, Page and Plugin

Create Custom Shortcode in WordPress Post, Page and Plugin

Edit current theme's function.php add this code

function recent_posts_func( $atts, $content = NULL ){
    $content = $content?$content:'Latest Posts';
    $a = shortcode_atts(
        array(
            'posts'=>5
        ),
        $atts
    );
    $args = array('numberposts'=>$a['posts']);
    $recent_posts = wp_get_recent_posts( $args, ARRAY_A );
    echo '<div class="recent-posts">';
    echo '<h1>'.$content.'</h1>';
    foreach($recent_posts as $post){
    ?>
    <div class="updated"><p><?php echo $post['post_title']; ?>. <a href="<?php echo get_permalink($post["ID"]); ?>"><span>Show Details</span>.</a></p></div>
    <?php
    }
    echo '</div>';
}
add_shortcode( 'latestposts', 'recent_posts_func' );

Shortcode content view:

Insert the shortcode through the WordPress admin panel editor, use the below code.

[latestposts posts="2"]Recent Posts[/latestposts]
