Learn how to use the two types of Kick Integration shortcode.
Section titled “Learn how to use the two types of Kick Integration shortcode.”The StreamWeasels YouTube Integration plugins offer two types of shortcodes to embed YouTube content on your website. Let’s explore how to use them.
[sw-kick-embed] Shortcode
Section titled “[sw-kick-embed] Shortcode”You can insert a single Kick stream anywhere on your site using the [sw-kick-embed] shortcode. The basic shortcode will utilize the options set in your Kick Integration settings page.
[sw-kick-embed channel="lirik"][sw-kick] Shortcode
Section titled “[sw-kick] Shortcode”To embed multiple Kick streams in various layouts, use the [sw-kick] shortcode. This shortcode allows you to customize the settings for each embed. Here’s an example:
[sw-kick layout="wall" channels="channel1,channel2,channel3"]More Advanced Shortcodes
Section titled “More Advanced Shortcodes”Using the settings on the Main Settings Page works great if you are simply going to use one Kick Integration on your site. Configure your settings, add your simple shortcode [sw-kick] and then you’re done.
But what if you want to have multiple Kick Integrations on your site? Maybe you want to have 2 or 3 on a single page, or you want to have one on multiple different pages with different settings? That’s where the shortcode attributes and values come in.
If you want to use multiple different integrations with custom settings on each throughout your site, you will have to set these custom variables in the shortcode. For example;
[streamweasels-kick channel="monstercat" autoplay="1"]This will embed a Kick Wall Integration with 1 Kick channel with autoplay enabled.
