Not every possible shortcode option is covered by the shortcode generator. This page documents all available shortcode attributes and options.
The basic shortcode for the insertion of a wppa+ display in a page or post is: [wppa].
The shortcode allows attributes that specify the type of wppa+ display as well as the specification of albums, photos or special selection of photos.
The basic structure is: [wppa attr1="value1" attr2="value2" ...] The sequence order of attributes is irrelevant.
Important note: Make sure you do not accidently create the shortcode by a copy from an example text or an email. The double quotes might be "texturized" i.e. opening and closing quotes in stead of simple double quotes. This will result in unwanted behaviour!
