Change shortcode?

Hi,

You can add the wrapping html code directly in the editor without changing the shortcode input. You can do so like this: <p>[dropcap]This[/dropcap] is a text.</p>

Thanks. I was looking for a way to make work like that automatically – when pressing the D-button in the Visual Editor, though.

Best!

You need to change the code in the file includes/js/shortcode-button.js:15 and includes/js/shortcode-button.js:18.

Yeah. Tried to change the code from

if( selected !== ' ' || selected !== null ) {
                    // if text is selected when button is clicked, wrap shortcode around it
                    content =  '[dropcap]' + selected + '[/dropcap]';
                } else {
                	// add shortcode without the selected text
                	content = '[dropcap][/dropcap]';
                }

to

if( selected !== ' ' || selected !== null ) {
                    // if text is selected when button is clicked, wrap shortcode around it
                    content =  '<p>[dropcap]' + selected + '[/dropcap]</p>';
                } else {
                	// add shortcode without the selected text
                	content = '<p>[dropcap][/dropcap]</p>';
                }

But nothing’s changed. It still inserts [dropcap]…[dropcap] when pressing the shortcode button.

I have almost no coding experience, sorry.

Try to clear your site and browser cache. It seems the modified JS script hasn’t been loaded. Your modified file looks good.
