Reftagger Shortcode

Reftagger Shortcode creates a button in the TinyMCE visual editor in WordPress allowing you to easily add semantic Bible markup.

The Reftagger plug-in is a great plug-in except when it comes to finding verses that are by themselves in text.

Often when creating a sermon page for my church’s website I would have something like:

• 2 Corinthians 5:1-8
• Our Destination – What we know (v.1)

Reftagger plug-in doesn’t know that “v.1” was supposed to be verse 1 from 2 Corinthians 5:1-8 that was mentioned earlier in the text.

That’s where this shortcode comes in. Simply highlight the “v.1” text in the visual editor and click the reftagger button.

The shortcode is then placed in the main edit window as [reftagger title=””]v.1[/reftagger] and all you need to do is add “2 Corinthians 5:1” to the title attribute. The rest is handled by the plug-in, it will render the code in semantic Bible markup on the front end.

If you have the Reftagger Bible reference plug-in active it identifies references to the Bible verses and turns the references into links to the verse on Biblia.com.
