What is shortcode
A shortcode is a small piece of code, usually consisting of a word or combination of letters and numbers, that can be inserted into a website or content management system to perform a specific function. Shortcodes are often used to add features or functionality to a website without the need for extensive coding knowledge. For example, a shortcode may be used to display a gallery of images, insert a form for collecting user information, or embed a video from a third-party platform. Shortcodes can be easily edited or removed from a website as needed.
