add_shortcode question

I assume you want to pass multiple attributes to the same shortcode. With that in mind here is a sample shortcode that takes two attributes ( name and greeting ). It also sets the default value for each att. The shortcode simply prints out a greeting using the greeting and name wrapped in a H3 tag. The Codex has a good article on the shortcode API

add_shortcode( 'my-shortcode', 'my_shortcode_function' );

function my_shortcode_function( $atts, $content = null )
{
	extract( shortcode_atts( array( 'name' => 'No Name', 'greeting' => 'Hello' ), $atts ) );
	$print_greeting = "<h3>".$greeting.' '.$name."</h3>";
	return $print_greeting;
}

You would add the shortcode like this:
[my-shortcode name="Michelle" greeting="Bonjour"]

That’s not exactly what I was looking for ??

I want to use my shortcode like this:

[shortcode]Content goes here...[/shortcode]

but also I’d like to use

[sc]Content goes here...[/sc]

which runs the same function as “shortcode”.
“sc” is an alias for “shortcode” in this example.

Sorry about that. I misunderstood the question. In that case, I do not know how you would do what you wish. Out of curiosity why do you want two shortcodes that do the same thing?

I just want some aliases for my shortcodes, because they are faster to enter.

Thanks anyway for your time and help!

Is there a reason you wan’t to make two shortcodes that use the same function without multiple calls to add_shortcode()?

add_shortcode('shortcode', 'shortcode_func');
add_shortcode('sc', 'shortcode_func');

I don’t think add_shortcode() is built to accept an array in the $tag parameter, so it seems like this is the only way.
