WordPress Shortcode Generator
Generate a namespaced WordPress shortcode callback with escaped output.
Create a simple WordPress shortcode
The generated callback accepts a text attribute and returns escaped HTML rather than printing directly. Use a unique prefix to reduce naming collisions.
More complex shortcodes require capability checks, carefully defined attributes and context-appropriate escaping.
