-----

[](#usage)

### Setup

[](#setup)

Download the latest release from [Yii extensions](http://www.yiiframework.com/extension/yii-shortcode).

Unzip the component under ***protected/components*** and add the following to your application config:

```
return array(
  'components' => array(
    'shortcode' => array(
        'class' => 'application.components.ShortCode',
     ),
  ...
  ...
  ),
);
```

***protected/config/main.php***

### Registring Shortcodes

[](#registring-shortcodes)

You can register as many shortcodes as you want in base controller or in any custom controller:

```
public function beforeAction($action)
  {
      Yii::app()->shortcode->add_shortcode('gallery', array($this, 'gallery_callback'));
	  Yii::app()->shortcode->add_shortcode('caption', array($this, 'caption_callback'));
	  return $action;
  }
```

***protected/components/Controller.php***

```
function gallery_callback($atts)
  {
      return "Gallery #{$atts['id']}";
  }
function caption_callback($atts, $content)
  {
      return '' . $content . '';
  }
```

***protected/controllers/SiteController.php***

#### Rendering ShortCode

[](#rendering-shortcode)

```
$content = 'My Gallery: [gallery id="123"]';
echo Yii::app()->shortcode->parse($content);
```

**The output would be:**`My Gallery: Gallery #123`

```
$content= 'Hi, check out this caption: [caption]My Caption[/caption]';
echo Yii::app()->shortcode->parse($content);
```

**The output would be:**`Hi, check out this caption: My Caption`

***protected/views/site/index.php***
