Shortcode usage

  • How do I make use of the shortcode.

    I saw in the documentation that [elb_liveblog id="the_id_of_your_liveblog"]. should be used.

    • where should the shortcode be added. is it on the post that I enabled live blog on or the entry
    • which is the ID.?
    • I usually add more than one entry to a particular post. how do I make all the entries i add to a live blog post to appear where I wants it to be. It usually appear at the bottom of the post.
    • Example. I run a football blog. and I use the plugin for Match Updates or Transfer news updates and now, I use one entry for each update or news. and maybe I wanted the liveblog to appear in the middle of a blogpost and enabled the liveblog for that particular blogpost. How can I make this possible

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    You can turn any post into a liveblog when you check the checkbox.

    The shortcode is only for those occasions where you want the liveblog to be displayed on another page. You don’t need to use it.

    The liveblog will always be appended to the original content of a post. The order of the liveblog entries in a liveblog is from newest to oldest.
