    Hello Igor,

    We are loving your plugin and your continued improvement of it.

    One feature request I hope you will consider is adding a shortcode for embedding the entire giveaway and entry form into a post or page.

    Thanks for considering this request.

    Hi @soobahkdo, the shortcode has been introduced with the version 2.1.0.

    Each giveaway should have a shortcode column in the giveaway list table under Admin dashboard. Just go to menu Giveaways and look at the column shortcode.

    The shortcode is of the form [giveaway id=20] where number 20 is the ID of the giveaway.

    When you edit a giveaway or insert one, you will have a url link: YOURDOMAIN/wp-admin/post.php?post=20&action=edit. The number after post= is the giveaway ID.

    Hello Igor,

    When I embed the shortcode [giveaway id=77412] the entire giveaway does not display. Only the countdown, email field, recaptcha and enter button display. And the counter is centered while the other objects are left justified.

    I was hoping for an embed code that would display the full giveaway inside the page.

    Am I missing something?

    For now, the shortcode has been imagined as just a simple form that could provide the users to subscribe since the page/post itself could provide more information on it. The full giveaway could be a lot to process here. Especially if you want the whole template to be displayed there.

    Also, the style is pretty simple so that it uses most of the styling from the current theme that is being used.
