Writing a plugin to hold your set of custom shortcodes is trivial. If you want to go that route, I can share a sample with you.
]]>I was using exec-php without problem until it ceased to work. Now none of the shortcodes work. Presently the php is in Custom ShortCode Creator, which also shows its on the way out. Hasn’t been updated in a long time. No word from the producer. Its shortcodes are in the main template of a child theme.
I also tried putting the actual php in place of the shortcodes and without exec-php they didn’t work that way either. Before the loss of exec-php neither was a problem. I could use either shortcode or php wherever I wanted.
