## Beskrywing

## Screenshots

 * [[
 * It’s a shortcode, you can’t really do it justice with a screenshot, so here’s
   a picture of Maru the cat.

## Installation

 1. Download the latest zip file and extract the `literal-shortcode` directory.
 2. Upload this directory inside your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 3. Activate ‘Literal Shortcode’ on the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 4. Insert the shortcode in a post or page (replacing category-slug with an acutal 
    slug name) to return the number of posts in that category.

## Kwel-vrae

  How do I add this into my posts?

To display the shortcode `[gallery]` without invoking it, you would type [brace]
gallery[/brace].

If you need opening AND closing shortcodes, you’ll have to do it twice. So, to display`[
flv]uploads/maru.flv[/flv]` without invoking it, you would type [brace]/flv[/brace]
uploads/maru.flv[brace]flv[/brace].

To display the html tag `<div>` without invoking it, you would type [arrow]div[/
arrow].

To insert a custom ascii character, you would type [chr num=”##”] where ## is the
character code you want to print.

  Why did you make this?

I have a WordPress blog about WordPress stuff (very meta), so it’s helpful to be
able to display code like this without having it executed, or reverted by the editor.

  Can I change the shortcode?

Yes, just open `literal-shortcode.php` and add or change what text you want to trigger
the shortcode in on of the arrays near the bottom. If this gets any kind of popularity,
I’ll make that easier by adding an options page.

  Can you add this feature I just thought of?

Can I? Yes. Will I? Yes, if I think it would be a helpful addition. I’m trying to
keep things clean and simple, but there’s always room for improvement, so let me
know if you think a feature is lacking!
