I am trying your setup instructions…I get all OK on the functions.php but can’t seem to get the function to work?

Hmmm…can you help?

here is what I have done:

function popup_1() { return ‘Click Here

but as a test nothing…

here is the original code:

this I have this in the header:

this goes in the post:

Click Here

If I use the code manually in a post it works fine…but trying to setup the shortcode..hmmm

I will definately be tackling this project this week-Thank you!

By the way, can’t remember if I mentioned this, but you can do it with an image, too – so, if you frequently use a Safeway logo, you could create a shortcode for that.

Not sure if you can put anything other than plain text or HTML inside a shortcode.

I've been looking for this everywhere and the only wordpress plugin I found asked for money! So again, Thanks a Bunch! I added a couple of things to my code. I personally like it when a new window opens once the reader is redirected to a new website or blog. Also, I like to add "no follows" for any links that leave my website but don't belong to fellow bloggers. Hence, here's the code I use now (I used the redplum.com website as an example): function redplumdotcom() { return '<a href="http://www.redplum.com" rel="nofollow">RedPlum.com</a>'; } add_shortcode('redplum.com', 'redplumdotcom'); Thanks, Joelle Thank you so much!
