• Hi all,

    I thought I’d have a go at creating some shortcodes to make life a little easier. The idea of this one is to create a a nice curved area which is darker than the background with a lighter text.

    For some reason, everything seems to work ok on it, I get the full curved area between the shortcode, which is [dark1] and [/dark1] but the text only changes color on the first paragraph, as you can see here:

    https://sylv-jenkins.com/test-page

    The code used was this:

    functions.php

    function dark1( $atts, $content = null ) {
    	return '<div class="sc-dark1">"'.$content.'"</div>';
    }
    
    add_shortcode("dark1", "dark1");

    CSS

    .sc-dark1 {
    background: #575970;
    color: #afb0bc;
    padding: 10px;
    border-radius: 20px;
    }

    I can’t figure out what I may have done wrong, so any help is very much appreciated (especially as this is my wife’s site).

    Thanks.
