Swift Callouts leverages the power of shortcode to make it easy to place callouts, styled boxes and editorial asides in your posts and pages.

Features

  • Customizble templates
  • Ability to override any style attribute on a per callout basis
  • Easy-to-use shortcode to make callout placement a snap: [callout]Text here[/callout]
  • Ability to create static content within any template
  • Easily add additional CSS style properties to any callout
  • Include icons, pictures and headlines in callout templates so that they are automatically placed on the page

The plugin has a "Callouts Manager" where you can create and edit templates used in formatting the callouts. The Callout Manager allows you to customize 18 style attributes. You can also create static content that appears inside the callout by default.

Swift Callouts uses the shortcode [callout]You text here[/callout]. To give you even more control over formatting your callouts, the plugin allows you to override any template style by adding the tag style_name="value" to the shortcode. For instance, to make a callout float left, you would use the tag [callout float="left"]Your text here[/callout]. For more information about overriding style attributes, visit the Overriding Style Attributes page on our website.

Swift Callouts also allows you to add additional style elements beyond the 18 customizable styles in the template, on a per callout basis. To add extended styles, use the tag style_name="value" for just about any CSS property you like. Just be sure to replace any dashes in the style name with underscores. For instance, to change the font size in a callout, use the tag: [callout font_size="2em"]Your text here[/callout]. For more information on using extended styles, visit the Using Extended Styles on our website.
