Adding an object

To add your shortcode to MotoPress Content Editor interface you need to “describe” it first. To do that, create an instance of MPCEObject like this:

$youShortcodeObj = new MPCEObject( $id, $name, $icon, $attributes, $position, $closeType, $resize );

Object parameters

$id
(string) (required) The $id should match with your shortcode tag name.
Default: None

$name
(string) (required) Specifies the name of the object in the MotoPress Content Editor interface.
Default: None

$icon
(string) (required) path to the object icon within the wp-content folder.
Default: empty string

$attributes
(array) (required) Multidimensional associative array, where keys are your shortcode attributes and values are associated visual controls.

$closeType
(string) (required) It defines enclosing or self-closing shortcode type. The value should be one of these constants:

• MPCEObject::SELF_CLOSED – if your shortcode is self-closed.
• MPCEObject::ENCLOSED – if your shortcode is enclosed.

Default: MPCEObject::SELF_CLOSED
