You can find all shortcode options in the attribute table on the Untappd ratings for WooCommerce GitHub repository.

  2. Use the search bar at the top to search for the brewery you’re interested in.
  3. Once you find the brewery, click on its name to view its details.
  4. In the URL of the brewery’s page, you’ll find a numerical value after “/brewery/” – this is the brewery ID.
  5. Copy the brewery ID and use it when adding the shortcode.

For example, if the URL is https://untappd.com/w/brasserie-cantillon/202, then 202 would be the brewery ID to use in the shortcode.
